New heights of amateur podcasting today as we accidentally livestreamed our entire Hull post-match pod, only realizing 40 minutes in. Congrats to anyone who caught an unplanned look at how the sausage gets made. Evidence has since been destroyed. Edited pod out later!

FULL TIME HULL🟠 2-2 ⚪ EVERTON Back from the break, a lively second half at the MKM Stadium sees the Toffees battle back to take the lead. Poor defending allows the home side to equalize. EFC still unbeaten. Thoughts, questions, comments for the pod?

Everton are fifth and unbeaten after a 1-0 Ipswich win. Not convincing, but Barry grabbed his chance, Dibling argued for more minutes (and that's five clean sheets). We've turned James's live chat into a short podcast: linktr.ee/THEBLUEFRONT...

FULL TIME EVERTON 🔵 1-0 ⚪ IPSWICH TOWN The Toffees cap off their unbeaten start to the season with 3 points through Thierno Barry's creative finish. James will be going live on Youtube, FB, and X in lieu of a post-match pod: would love to take some live comments and questions. Link shared shortly

Everton are through after beating Wolves 1–0, a rotated side giving Moyes decisions. We discuss Dibling’s 90 minutes and patience, Alcaraz’s decisive role, breaking down stubborn Wolves, and who deserves more game time. Full episode: linktr.ee/thebluefront...

Mykolenko made five first-half tackles... and lost the ball 14 times. That is why simple good/bad verdicts miss the point. His defending held up under pressure, and Branthwaite’s presence changes what he can do. Full episode: linktr.ee/thebluefrontier

Spurs had the territory. Everton had more control than the possession numbers suggest. The shape stayed compact, the middle stayed crowded and Spurs finished with only two shots on target. From our Spurs 0-0 Everton review: linktr.ee/thebluefrontier

Everton defended the match well. They never worked out how to attack it. We look at the missing midfield outlet, Johnson's unused runs and whether Moyes made a winnable game safer with his substitutions. Pod out now: linktr.ee/thebluefront...

Hackney, Grealish and Maitland-Niles all made an impact off the bench against United. Which one most changed your view of Everton’s best XI vs Spurs?

The Blue Frontier - American Everton Analysis @thebluefrontier.bsky.social · 08/09/2026
James Tarkowski doesn’t have to be a bad defender for Jake O’Brien to be the better fit. If Everton want to press higher, their centre-backs have to defend more space. O’Brien’s recovery pace could let the team hold its shape instead of dropping off. Full discussion: youtu.be/WwADJgtRZm0

Maitland-Niles' finish is going to get a lot of replays. The performance around it deserves another look too. James and Ryan discuss Everton’s 2–2 draw with United: the gaps behind the press, Hackney’s impact, and the case for giving O’Brien a chance. Full episode: linktr.ee/thebluefront...

Man United have been a strange watch so far: 21 shots and 72% possession in a 2-0 loss at Hull, then 33 shots and five goals after going behind to Ipswich. They can overwhelm teams, but have also looked vulnerable out wide. What’s one tactical/personnel choice you want Moyes to make tomorrow?

The Blue Frontier - American Everton Analysis @thebluefrontier.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
Balogun might have lifted Everton’s window to a C+ on vibes alone. Without him, the final assessment was painful: some decent outgoing business, a few useful additions, but little that either builds for the future or moves Everton toward Europe. James' final grade: D-

The Blue Frontier - American Everton Analysis @thebluefrontier.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
The Balogun collapse completed a chaotic deadline day, but our new episode is about Everton’s entire window: the deals + the recruitment structure that even under new ownership still lacks a coherent plan. A fairly critical Deadline Day Blue Frontier: live on Youtube, Apple, and Spotify.

The Blue Frontier - American Everton Analysis @thebluefrontier.bsky.social · 01/09/2026
Everton’s deadline day appears to be just about done. A lot changed late: -Ndiaye, Beto, Patterson, Iroegbunam out -Grealish and Balogun in -Armstrong staying -Maitland-Niles still in question How are you feeling about the window as a whole?

£40m is a big fee for Harrison Armstrong, but Everton may regret it in two years. The real worry: selling your best academy player to bankroll a short-term push for Europe. Who's guarding the club's long-term plan? buff.ly/BSJ88w5

Everton created enough to lead, lost control after halftime, then found James Tarkowski waiting at the end of a dreadful corner. We break down Bournemouth 1-1 Everton, plus the £40m Harrison Armstrong bombshell. linktr.ee/thebluefrontier #Everton

Fantastic way to kick off the new season at Hill Dickinson Stadium with a 2-0 victory against our trading partners in Crystal Palace. Both of our goals very well taken by Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Thierno Barry who didn't wait at all this season to get on the scoresheet. Instant match reactions? ⬇️

Jake O’Brien ranked 40th of 40 Premier League right-backs in the “intense full-back” model and 38th of 40 technically. Everton have tolerated a five-alarm fire for years. We mapped the market for an actual solution. 🎧 : linktr.ee/thebluefrontier #Everton

Happy 4th of July from all of us at the Blue Frontier! Part 2 of the Team Assessment has dropped. We look into our midfield as well as the data driven targets in the center midfield positions. Shan & Ryan rate KDH, Garner & the rest with Wyscout data, then evaluate Hayden Hackney’s fit. #Everton

So the summer brief becomes pretty clear: more open-play creation, better progression, press resistance, and athleticism. We get into Beto, Barry, Ndiaye, Grealish, Dewsbury-Hall, Garner, Branthwaite, Pickford, and what Everton need next. Full episode: buff.ly/W8ydZxB #Everton #EFC

The attack was not mainly a finishing problem. Everton were 15th in shots per 90, 18th in clear shots, 17th in key passes, and 14th in touches in the box. Beto and Barry scored, KDH overperformed his xG, but the team still did not create enough clean chances.
120
The Blue Frontier - American Everton Analysis @thebluefrontier.bsky.social · 07/06/2026
The control numbers are where it gets ugly. Everton were 18th in possession, made the fewest subs in the Premier League, and lost the ball in build-up 45.8% of the time. Teams pressed Everton because they knew it worked. That is not just “direct football.”

The Blue Frontier - American Everton Analysis @thebluefrontier.bsky.social · 07/06/2026
The headline numbers were modestly better: 49 points, -3 goal difference, 47 goals scored, and 50 conceded. But Everton still ranked 14th in expected points, 13th in xG, and 13th in xGA. Progress, yes. Transformation, not even close.
