## Resource

Everton had a top-eight finish and Europe dangling right in front of them, but they chose the final home game of the season to completely fall apart. EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee Ian Croll is joined by Joe Thomas and Gavin Buckland on the latest Royal Blue podcast to dissect a miserable 3-1 defeat to Sunderland. From Merlin Röhl’s opener to a second-half defensive horror show, the lads look at why things went so horribly wrong. The fans are furious, and the blame is being pointed everywhere. Was it a failure of application from the players, or did David Moyes get it tactically wrong yet again? Plus, we look at the huge contract dilemma facing the board. With Moyes entering the final year of his deal, has this capitulation forced TFG’s hand? Do they stick, twist, or let him enter next season on an expiring contract?
