Everton’s Away Form Strikes Again! | Newcastle 2-3 Everton Reaction

EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee

Everton’s sensational away form shows no signs of slowing down! Join Ian Croll, Chris Beesley, and Paul Wheelock on the Royal Blue podcast as they dissect a massive 3-2 victory over Newcastle United at St James’ Park—a result that catapults David Moyes’ men right back into the thick of the European race.

In this episode, the lads break down how Everton’s setup and disciplined approach nullified the Magpies and secured a well-deserved three points on the road.

Is Beto Back? The lads look at the striker’s goal-scoring performance and what it means for his confidence heading into the run-in.

Was that Jordan Pickford save, "Save of the Season". The lads have a reaction to that jaw-dropping Jordan Pickford stop to deny Sandro Tonali in the dying seconds. And Dwight McNeil’s Return: The trio analyse the impact of McNeil’s return to the starting XI and his role in the Blues’ attacking fluency.

While the Blues are flying on their travels, the focus now shifts back to the Hill Dickinson Stadium for Tuesday night’s clash against Burnley. With Everton currently winless in their last seven on home soil, the panel asks: Is this the night the rot finally stops?

With a trip to the North East on the horizon, Ian Croll and Gavin Buckland sit down to preview Everton’s upcoming clash against Newcastle United at St James’ Park. After a frustrating narrow defeat to Manchester United at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, the Blues are looking to rediscover their clinical away form against Eddie Howe’s Magpies.

On Today’s Show: David Moyes held his pre-match press conference this morning. The lads "pick the bones" out of the manager's comments, discussing the latest team news—including the return of Jake O’Brien from suspension and the ongoing absence of Jack Grealish.

Selection Dilemmas: Ian and Gavin dive into the usual team selection debate. Does Moyes stick with the side that showed "signs of progress" on Monday, or is it time for a tactical shake-up to handle Newcastle’s high intensity?

The Long-Term Future: With the Blues currently sitting 9th in the table but enduring a winless run at the new stadium, the guys discuss the long-term future of David Moyes. Is he the man to lead Everton into a consistent European charge?

Predictions: We wrap up with our score predictions. Can the Toffees replicate last season's final-day heroics at St James’ Park?

Royal Blue: Everton’s home form frustrations continue

EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee

A frustrating night under the lights at the Hill Dickinson Stadium saw Everton fall to a narrow 1-0 defeat against Manchester United. Despite a spirited display, Benjamin Šeško’s second-half strike was enough to condemn the Blues to their seventh consecutive home game without a win—an alarming trend that is threatening to derail a promising campaign.

Host Ian Croll is joined by Chris Beesley to pick through the bones of another difficult outing on the waterfront. While the Toffees remarkably remain in 9th place and firmly in the hunt for European qualification, the mood among the Goodison faithful—now settled into their new home—is beginning to sour.

Watch or listen to the full episode for the definitive word on all things Everton.
