Byline 73 - How do you rate the Friedkin Group's first year at Everton?

Matt and Paddy look at the future of Dwight McNeil after his return to the starting XI on Saturday night. There are reports that Sean Dyche is keen to sign the out-of-favour winger, but can Everton afford to let him or go? Or is there no way they can turn down a decent offer? Harrison Armstrong’s future could be impacted by any approach. David Moyes seems to be softening in his stance on a potential recall in January. We start the show with an anniversary though. It’s been a year since the Friedkin Group took full control of the Blues. What has gone well and what could be better from their first year? 🤝 NORD VPN DEAL  Get our black Friday exclusive deal: Big savings + 4 months extra: https://nordvpn.com/blueroom  ➕ BLUE ROOM EXTRA  Get exclusive content and all of our podcasts ad-free when you sign up to Blue Room Extra: https://tinyurl.com/yc83x2zh  📩 EMAIL  Get in touch with Matt and Paddy for questions, comments and enquires at evertonbyline@gmail.com  📸 LAURA GATES PHOTOGRAPHY  Get a discount when using code ‘TBR25’ at checkout Learn more about your ad choices.

Byline 72 - What is really going on with Tyler Dibling?

Ending three hexes in three weeks wasn’t doable for Everton. Stamford Bridge remains the least happiest of all their Premier League hunting grounds. Matt and Paddy assess some of the collateral damage from that defeat. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Jack Grealish have picked up injuries at the worst possible time for the Toffees, with Iliman Ndiaye and Idrissa Gueye now off to Africa Cup of the Nations. We take a closer look at Tyler Dibling’s peculiar situation ahead of what will be a big month for him and look at James Garner’s contract situation after he and Moyes played down rumours an agreement was imminent.
