About this listen

Host Ian Croll and the Liverpool Echo's Chris Beesley dive into a somber week for the Blues following a painful 2-1 defeat in the Merseyside Derby. While the result at the Hill Dickinson Stadium stings, the long-term consequences could be even more severe. EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee The headline news is the injury to Jarrad Branthwaite. After being stretchered off in the dying minutes against Liverpool, reports suggest the star defender is facing two months on the sidelines with a hamstring tear. With the 23-year-old’s season potentially over, Ian and Chris discuss how David Moyes recalibrates a defense that has looked far more stable with the England international in the lineup. The guys turn their attention to Beto. Despite a tireless work rate, questions remain about his clinical edge. With his current deal running until 2027, the panel debates the latest rumors surrounding his future: Does he deserve a contract extension to secure his value? Or is it time for Everton to look for a different profile of striker this summer? It’s been a tough run for Thierno Barry. After a solid start to his Everton career, his recent performances have dipped, leading to visible frustration in the stands. We explore his complex relationship with the fans and whether the young forward can prove himself as Everton’s. Finally, we wrap up the post-match autopsy of the 2-1 loss to Liverpool. From missed opportunities to controversial officiating, we provide the final word on a derby that leaves Everton looking over their shoulder as the season enters its final stretch. #EFC #EvertonFC #DavidMoyes #EvertonStadium #HillDickinson #RoyalBlue Chris Beesley's Book: Spirit of the Blues: https://tinyurl.com/35yrkvdb *Emotional farewell to Goodison Park | 16-page Everton souvenir picture special:* https://shop.regionalnewspapers.co.uk/liverpool-echo-monday-19th-may-2025-4583-p.asp *Goodbye to Goodison special souvenir edition:* https://tinyurl.com/GoodbyeGoodisonSouvenir *Gavin Buckland's Book 'The End' | Order your copy here:* https://tinyurl.com/GavinBucklandTheEnd Everton FC podcasts from the Liverpool ECHO’s Royal Blue YouTube channel.
