George wants to carry the ball. Johnson wants space to run into. Moyes picked both, then barely played directly. What can Moyes change with this squad? James, Shan and Ryan on Arsenal 2-0 Everton. Pod out now : buff.ly/rj98MIp

FULL TIME ARSENAL🔴 2-0 🔵 EVERTON Slog in the rain for the Toffees at the Emirates today. Miserable fixture as always. Reactions? Did we learn anything new from that result?

Everton spent the first half making Chelsea hate every minute. They came back out and conceded before most of the Hill Dickinson crowd were back in their seats. New pod on how an awkward afternoon for Chelsea became a comfortable one in 43 seconds. Listen or watch: buff.ly/nVESBsI

FULL TIME EVERTON🔵 0-2 ⚪CHELSEA A poor 2nd half that lacked any cohesion after a scrappy opening 45. The Toffees face defeat for the first time this season. Reactions, comments, questions for the pod?

Everton created six big chances, came from behind and took the lead at Hull. They still never looked in control of the match. The full trio is back to discuss the transition problems, Branthwaite at LB, the Tark-Keane pairing, Moyes’ late changes and a mixed afternoon for Thierno Barry. We also react briefly to TFG officially putting up the "FOR SALE" sign:

Missed opportunity. Not getting 3 points against newly promoted sides has long haunted us. At least today wasn’t a total loss for two of our members, Phil and Sam!
FULL TIME HULL🟠 2-2 ⚪ EVERTON Back from the break, a lively second half at the MKM Stadium sees the Toffees battle back to take the lead. Poor defending allows the home side to equalize. EFC still unbeaten. Thoughts, questions, comments for the pod?

New heights of amateur podcasting today as we accidentally livestreamed our entire Hull post-match pod, only realizing 40 minutes in. Congrats to anyone who caught an unplanned look at how the sausage gets made. Evidence has since been destroyed. Edited pod out later!

Ipswich are 11th, the highest-placed team Everton have faced so far. Obviously early days, but I’m still not convinced Everton have gotten a result against a genuinely good side yet. Certainly no one in form.

James makes a good point - but there's a wider one. I always see things like Everton (could be any English team) have 9 pts from 5, but rarely any mention of quality of opponents. Is there a reason? Feel like it's commonplace in the US to talk about strength of schedule.

Everton are fifth and still unbeaten after beating Ipswich 1-0. It wasn’t especially convincing, but Barry took his chance, Dibling made a strong case for more minutes... and five clean sheets is five clean sheets. James went live after the match and we've cut that discussion down into a short podcast and YouTube episode. 🎧 : buff.ly/OY2BjYL

As long as Moyes sees Dibling / Alcaraz as legit players off the bench, it's fine. Johnson probably plays better with Grealish on the other side and Dibling probably plays better with George on the other side + Charly as a right footed 10. Will Moyes play subs? Not sure.
Today's Toffees to face @IpswichTown! 👊🔵 #EVEIPS

I think Grealish can help unlock the best version of Brennan Johnson. Harsh to drop George to the bench though.

Really disappointed we didn’t get a game vs Scherpen, he’s been so poor. O’Neil made some good changes, this is near their best lineup. George, Dibling. Alcaraz could be very impactful if given the opportunity today. Need a good day from Brennan before the break. UTFT 💙
Your Town side this afternoon. 👊

📍 Everton v Ipswich Last game covering the Blues for the Echo, hoping it’s a good one Have been overwhelmed by all the lovely messages since announcing my departure I’m trying to get back to as many as possible but, if you’ve not yet heard from me, thank you. It means a lot

As an Evertonian, I understand what he’s trying to do as well. It is annoying and don’t appreciate the language being used but up to the club to prove him and others wrong by actually doing something in the cups and/or qualifying for Europe. Until then, there’s some validity.
Replying to @talkSPORT
Directly out of the “let’s say some provocative things to get bites” playbook. They’ll get them of course, they’re getting one from me right now in sending this but it’s so transparent and childish.
