The Everton rollercoaster continues!
Giulia Bould joins Matt on the podcast this week with Paddy in Australia. Unfortunately they have a challenging afternoon to reflect on.
What went so wrong against Brentford in the 4-2 defeat? And why have Everton already suffered three heavy defeats at Hill Dickinson Stadium against mid table teams?
We also look at the transfer window. What are Everton expecting? What do they need? And how do you cover them?

Blue Monday - How is Moyes getting it so wrong in home games?

Should he be doing better against teams around Everton, even with limited resources?
And can he put it right ahead of a huge week of league and cup games? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Byline 73 - How do you rate the Friedkin Group's first year at Everton?
Matt and Paddy look at the future of Dwight McNeil after his return to the starting XI on Saturday night. There are reports that Sean Dyche is keen to sign the out-of-favour winger, but can Everton afford to let him or go? Or is there no way they can turn down a decent offer?
Harrison Armstrong’s future could be impacted by any approach. David Moyes seems to be softening in his stance on a potential recall in January.
We start the show with an anniversary though. It’s been a year since the Friedkin Group took full control of the Blues. What has gone well and what could be better from their first year?
