Everton's first home loss at Hill Dickinson Stadium came with a hard lesson in margins. James, Ryan, and Shan return to sort through the frustration and the facts: two set-piece lapses, some dodgy refereeing, and not mention, another match where Everton's play looked better than the scoreline.

This week's episode leans into a new format shaped by conversations in The Blue Frontier Discord. Less retelling, more reasoning. The hosts break down how Everton out-created Spurs from open play, and what the post-shot xG reveals about finishing and defensive shape. They also dig into listener-driven ideas on tactical tweaks and squad rotation, asking what realistically needs to change for results to match performances.

Finally, the boys take us through a new segment, led by Shan, to give Thoughts and Prayers to two teams that are really struggling right now. You might be surprised to know who those clubs are.
