  • FOOTBALL RECRUITMENT MODELS, PART 1: Newcastle United
    The Blue Frontier begins their first of a multi-part series, looking at different Premier League clubs' transfer strategies, and assessing what Everton can learn from different approaches to team building as the Toffees prepare for a massive rebuild this summer.  The first team in the series, having just won their first trophy in 70 years, is Newcastle United. NUFC have spent big, but in doing so built a very good squad which is consistently contending for European football since the Saudi Arabian investment in October 2021.    James, Shan, and Ryan walk through the evolution of the current Newcastle side from the hiring of Eddie Howe in November that year to the most recent move for Paul Mitchell, including the latter's vocal criticism of the past recruitment strategies. Once fully recapped, the guys look at their prognosis going forward.  This episode goes DEEP into every window since the takeover, walking through the various structures, the influence of Dan Ashworth and Nick Hammond (who was at Leeds and is linked to Everton), Darren Eales, etc.    If you enjoyed the episode, or have any feedback reach out and let us know!

  • EVERTON EXECUTIVE SHAKEUP: Kinnear Deep Dive & Lessons From Leeds
    Everton’s new era under The Friedkin Group is starting to take shape, and The Blue Frontier crew is here to break it all down. In this episode, James, Ryan, and Shan take a deep dive into the appointment of Angus Kinnear as CEO-in-waiting. What does his tenure at Leeds United tell us about his vision for Everton? With a strong background in commercial growth and a different approach to football operations, Kinnear’s arrival raises major questions about the club’s recruitment strategy, its evolving structure, and the long-term sustainability of this model. The team analyzes his past decisions, his views on PSR, and the delay in his start date—plus, how his leadership could shape Everton’s future alongside David Moyes. They also examine the financial realities of modern football, the role of a director of football, and the risks and rewards of moving away from existing recruitment structures. With insights from The Square Ball and Paddy Boyland (thanks to both for the fantastic source material), this is an in-depth look at the biggest off-pitch story at Everton right now. Is this the bold move Everton needs, or are the Toffees taking a massive gamble?  🎧 Follow, share, and subscribe for more in-depth Everton analysis!   LINKS: https://linktr.ee/thebluefrontier The Square Ball Youtube channel (to watch the Kinnear interviews): https://www.youtube.com/@thesquareball_

  • WEST HAM POST-MATCH: Moyes Derby Draw Destiny
    The full crew is reunited on this episode of The Blue Frontier to dig into Everton's 1-1 draw at home to West Ham, extending their unbeaten run to 9 matches. Ryan, James and Shan dig into the phases of the game, from a stalemate of a first half, to WHU gaining traction to start the 2nd, to Moyes' successful triple sub that put Jake O'Brien in position to thump home the equalizer, the second time in three games he’s rescued a point for the Toffees.  Moyes faced his previous club for the first time since leaving West Ham, and the pod brings you all the details of the fantastic Everton goal, as well as all the analysis in what was a very tactical match.  From strange West Ham team construction and the key matchups to the data insights that highlight the difference in the results.  The guys then discuss potential lineups going forward and what this Everton team might look like in the next match for what could be a difficult April schedule for Everton.       📢 Join the conversation!

  • WOLVES POST-MATCH: Unbeaten But Underwhelmed
    Everton escaped their trip to Molineux with a 1-1 draw against Wolves, bringing their unbeaten run to 8 games in the league, something David Moyes has not achieved as a manager since his OG spell leading the Blues. James and Shan are here to dissect the (admittedly) less-than-thrilling match which saw both goals scored within a 7 minute spell in the first half. They of course have to mention the absence of Cunha, as it wasn't mentioned enough elsewhere in the media. But they also dig into all the other major moments, including Moyes' different approach to the substitutions, Andre nearly headbutting Stuart Attwell, and much more. Our listener input and comments really shine in this episode as the guys continue to come to terms with secure Premier League safety with 10 matches still to play.   LINKS: https://linktr.ee/thebluefrontier

  • THE MOYES EFFECT: Everton’s Turnaround by the Numbers, Stadium/Boardroom Volatility, and the Frontier Feedback Loop
    David Moyes's return has brought a good feeling back to Everton fans worldwide, and the numbers help tell the story we all know: Everton are thriving under his leadership. In this episode of The Blue Frontier, James and Shan take a deep dive into the data, breaking down how Moyes' tactical approach compares to Sean Dyche’s tenure. (05:54) From shifts in defensive structure to improvements in attacking play, we analyze key stats and standout performances from players like Jake O’Brien, Beto, and James Garner. But wait, there's more than just performance analysis—Everton’s boardroom has been nearly as eventful. The guys discuss major executive shakeups, stadium financing updates, and what Abdoulaye Doucouré’s contract situation signals for the club’s future. (23:58) With so much uncertainty, they try to walk the thin line between speculation & reality. Finally, we turn the spotlight to YOU, our listeners. (44:08) We answer your questions—who should Everton target in the transfer market? What’s the best matchday experience at Goodison? And, of course, the truly important debates: favorite vegetables, ideal first opponent at Bramley-Moore Dock, Everton as an animal, and more!
