LIVERPOOL POST-MATCH: Agenda at Anfield

An early Derby day brings the full power trio together to bring you all the drama from a 2-0 Toffee loss at Liverpool.  Alex, James, and Ryan give their takes along with listeners on all the drama – the red card, the lack of red card, Craig Pawson’s performance, the tactical switch to 531, and the overall Everton performance.  The ATP also tries to look at how much of this is Dyche’s tactical setup and personnel decisions vs. individual performances.  They also take a hard listen and look at Sean Dyche’s post-match comments and some of the ridiculous language that constitutes the FA Rulebook.</p> <p dir="ltr">LINKS: https://linktr.ee/usatoffeepod</p> <p dir="ltr">Production: Alex Johnson</p> <p dir="ltr">Intro: Steve Barkwill</p> <p dir="ltr">Outro: Kenboib</p>  </p>

LUTON TOWN POST-MATCH: Losers No More

First of all, Happy Birthday to James Boyman and congratulations for representing the ATP well in a 2-1 loss at Goodison to Luton Town.  As a result, Alex and Ryan hold down the pod this week and discuss how big of a loss this is, where we thought Everton went wrong, and what this side could look like in the future.  Lots of listener comments this week with emphasis on Sean Dyche’s role and whether or not the adjustments he made - Gana off, 2 CFs, Patterson for Young, Danjuma for McNeil - were the right ones today.  But most importantly, thank you James for bringing your good luck and charm to Goodison as you definitely made an impact.   <p dir="ltr">LINKS: https://linktr.ee/usatoffeepod</p> <p dir="ltr">Production: Alex Johnson</p> <p dir="ltr">Intro: Steve Barkwill</p> <p dir="ltr">Outro: Kenboib</p>

777 Partners: A New Dawn, Or A New Disaster?

The ATP does their deep dive into the situation at Everton football club and most importantly the prospects of 777 buying out Farhad Moshiri.  Alex, James, Ryan go through not just the financial perils of Everton football club, but take a look at what we know about the viability of 777 as a business as well as a football club owner.  While we pride ourselves on our original research, we want to credit the JOSIMAR article by Paul Brown and Philippe Auclair as well as the article on onemileatatime.com by Ben Schlappig.   <p dir="ltr">LINKS: https://linktr.ee/usatoffeepod</p> <p dir="ltr">Production: Alex Johnson</p> <p dir="ltr">Intro: Steve Barkwill</p> <p dir="ltr">Outro: Kenboib</p>

ARSENAL POST-MATCH: Outgunned on Home Turf

The full power trio is here to bring you all action (or lack thereof) from a 1-0 loss vs. Arsenal at Goodison.  While Everton have had considerable success against the Gunners at Goodison in recent times, it was not to be as Everton were outdone by a terrific goal by Leandro Trossard.  The ATP gets into the central debate of the match as to whether or not the style of play is at fault or if it’s instead the individual performances.  Alex, James, and Ryan also take a ton of listener comments and talk about a wide range of topics that eventually devolves into strange commentary on life in Colorado vs. Maine as well as the merit of Taco Bell, Rib-eyes, and authentic Mexican food. </p>  </p> LINKS: <a href="https://linktr.ee/usatoffeepod">https://linktr.ee/usatoffeepod</a></p> Intro: Steve Barkwill</p> Production: James Boyman</p> Outro: Kenboib</p>

ASTON VILLA POST-MATCH: Dyche Disasterclass vs Emery's Villains

Alex picked the right match to be on vacation as James and Ryan are left to try and make sense of a 4-0 drubbing by Aston Villa in Birmingham.  A combination of individual mistakes and a tactical mismatch led to Unai Emery’s side embarrassing the Toffees in some almost hard-to-believe ways.  The ATP breaks down the reasons for the one-sided affair as well as goes thru the individual mistakes that led to the goals and general poor play.  The dynamic duo then talk through the glaring needs that remain in the side from our Team Assessment and whether or not we think Everton can address those needs by the end of the window.</p>  </p> LINKS: <a href="https://linktr.ee/usatoffeepod">https://linktr.ee/usatoffeepod</a></p> Intro: Steve Barkwill</p> Production: James Boyman</p> Outro: Kenboib</p>
