A 2025 David Moyes midfield set up is a car crash 😂😂😂

Tactically he has had his pants pulled down today 😂😂

Everton’s League Cup snub was a missed opportunity to give season extra meaning For all the positivity of recent months, Tuesday's League Cup defeat felt like a significant misstep and one that could have been avoided

Some painful lessons for Everton to learn last night. Fringe players failed to show - some way off the pace - and squad not able to cope with this level of rotation

#EFC should be targeting competitions like this, not neglecting them

All on the manager that tonight 👍pathetic selection and pathetic tactics….

Omari Hutchinson.

Nottingham Forest have left Omari Hutchinson out of their squad for the Europa League league phase.

Hutchinson joined the club from Ipswich Town for £37.5million in August.

🚨Preston North End are hopeful of completing a loan deal for Harrison Armstrong today

(Source - Daily Mail )

Update: Newcastle United have agreed a deal with Stuttgart for forward Nick Woltemade.

An agreement has been reached between the two clubs for an initial fee of €75million plus €5m in potential add-ons.

A good night for:

Charly Alcaraz - lovely goal

Harrison Armstrong - excellent all-round display

Seamus Coleman - first full game since Aug 2024 and still effective. So good seeing him having an impact

Everton - through to round 3 of Carabao Cup

Job done

Seen some confusion about Adam Aznou after Sunday's game. He was initially listed as a substitute but felt something in the warm-up and was replaced by Eli Campbell. Said to be precautionary and nothing major at this stage. Participation tomorrow still TBC

2 Centre midfielders and a RB before the window shuts please Everton

Throw in another RW if you fancy it as well 👍

The rubbish the manager and the coaching team served up in that first half…..

Been evident all pre season there is a massive lack of any style of play or patterns of play from an attacking sense

The pen decision hiding the fact the manager served up some absolute crap tonight!

Tactically outclassed by Daniel Farke 😂😂😂😂

Unsure what our style of play is, was an issue all pre season also. 0 patterns of play especially with the ball…..

Everton win tonight

Crystal Palace make approach for Club Brugge’s Christos Tzolis Palace have already seen a bid rejected by Brugge but plan to return with an improved bid and are speaking to the Greece attacker’s camp.

🚨 EXCL: Crystal Palace approach Club Brugge for Christos Tzolis as option (like El Khannouss) to replace Eze. Offer rejected but #CPFC plan to raise bid + also talking to 23yo’s camp. Recently signed new deal so #Clubbrugge not keen to sell

Jack Grealish keen on Everton move Plus: why the Toffees remain hopeful of signing Southampton's Tyler Dibling

🚨🆕️ Jack Grealish understood to be open to #efc loan move.

Talks now focused on structure of the deal. Willingness to get it done 👇 inews.co.uk/sport/footba...

We need TWO right wingers not ONE

Can’t go into next season with Charly or Mcneil as the back up RW…..

Backed Mcneil for a while but have to admit his time at Everton slowly (like his pace) coming to an end

A quality “number 6” added to potentially Dibling AND Grealish and we could be on for a very decent season…

Hopefully money left in the kitty to bring in one more decent size permanent deal 👍
