Everton midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure has returned to the squad after missing the draw at Brentford to be at the birth of his son. Everton have triumphed in just one of their 23 Premier League matches without Abdoulaye Doucoure since the beginning of the 2022-23 season, but have won 33.8% of...

A goal would be a nice Christmas present. And a great surprise! Last six games; Everton DDLWDD City LLWDLL

Swap our manager for any of the other 19 in the league at the start of the season and how many of them would have done better? United have now beaten Everton 42 times in the Premier League, the highest tally of any side against one opponent in the competition.

Thank you. Moyes rested six against Leeds. In the event, Leeds only offered modest opposition. The rested players have had 10 days to recover, so I can understand that he will want to give them a game. Moyes would obviously like a clear lead so that he can take first choice players off early...

West Ham have a final next Wednesday. Who knows what team Moyes will turn out? And what mood will Spurs be in?

And Leeds are at West Ham tomorrow, after their semi-final win at Alkmaar on Thursday.

It's an enormous risk to take McNeil out of midfield. Play Begovic at left back.

Or Moshiri has inside information and has staked his entire fortune on Everton to win.

If we have to win the final match, then the occasion will be like a cup tie, and in any single match, the result can go either way. Regardless of how the team plays, the result could be decided by an injury, a controversial decision of the referee or a stroke of good or bad fortune. We've...

Especially when we beat Brighton just to help them!

Now would certainly be a good time to win two consecutive league matches. We haven't managed that all season. Yes, it's a little late to worry about goal difference, or even goals scored. But things are very tight and a 3-0 defeat has given away our advantage over Leeds. And if a draw against...
