Royal Blue: The brilliance of James Rodriguez, Jordan Pickford's latest blunder and what to expect ahead of transfer deadline day

Royal Blue: The Everton FC Podcast

It's never dull at Goodison and, as ever, the Royal Blue podcast team have plenty to get through in his episode. The panel reflect on the midweek draw with Leicester City, eulogising about the goal from James Rodriguez but agonise over yet another gaffe from Jordan Pickford. Pickford's form - and his future - is up for discussion with host Phil Kirkbride joined by Dave Prentice and Gav Buckland. There is some disagreement over Carlo Ancelotti's tactics in the game, with one saying the Blues boss used his experience well, with another saying he made mistakes. Off the pitch, Cenk Tosun looks like he's going, Bernard could be going but Yannick Bolasie has gone. The panel look back at the Goodison career of Bolasie and debate the impact of the serious knee injury he suffered early in his first season. Plus there are the customary predictions as Everton welcome Newcastle United to Goodison. Enjoy.
