Matt is joined by Natalie and Connor to talk through the main Everton talking points this week.

We look at the Premier League as a whole and whether the Blues can capitalise on a number of sides being out-of-sorts.

Then it’s on to Hull. Are there still questions over Barry and Dewsbury-Hall despite their goals? And where do we see the current ownership situation leading, with The Friedkin Group keen to cash in on the club?

Paddy is back, Everton are back, frustrating away draws are back and yes...ownership uncertainty is back.

Matt and Paddy look at Thierno Barry's mixed day at Hull City. The numbers suggest he's improving, but is his profligacy in front of goal a problem

Tyrique George's recent omissions also provide a conundrum; what's going on there?

And to finish we tackle the ownership situation. What does it mean for the manager, the team and transfers?

Paddy’s colleague from The Athletic, Greg O’Keeffe steps in this week, as we look ahead to the return of Premier League football.

Greg also gives us a unique insight into the mindset of David Moyes and where his head could be at as time continues to tick down on his Everton contract. We also look back at the Folarin Balogun transfer saga after he has seemingly opened the door to a transfer to the Premier League again; Greg, who has interviewed the United States striker before, looks at how much of a missed opportunity it was for the Blues.

Greg also talks through his recent interview with Kevin Sinfield, who has been raising money in support of Motor Neurone Disease charities by running seven ultramarathons in seven days.
