It is fair to say that Everton are known throughout the entire Barclay’s Premier League as being notoriously slow starters. The 2011/2012 season has seemed to follow all the symptoms of yet another Toffees slow start, having only won 7 of the 19 games so far this season. Now that Everton are once again at a halfway point of another Premier League season the time is now to question can David Moyes shape another strong second half of the season for the Toffees?
Can Moyes shape improvements into his Everton side?

The stereotypical professional is certainly a concept cemented within past generations in modern day football. Priorities generally associated with the modern game include money, fast cars, headlines and scandal. It is now getting increasingly difficult to find honest, genuine hard-working professionals who are just in it for the love of the game.
Even “Mr Professional” himself Ryan Giggs had to tarnish a near 20 year career with a adultery scandal that fed the media with more than a months worth of coverage. This was followed by the tragic passing of one of the …
Adopting a nickname related to a towering figure of the French monarchy was always quite a bold move by Louis Saha. “King Louis” is what he has been affectionately known as within Everton folklore, however i feel it is time for the crown to passed on, and his throne taken from him.
A dogged career of injuries has never really assisted Saha in his quest for footballing success. Sir Alex Ferguson offered him the chance of a lifetime by bringing him to Old Trafford in his younger years, …
A small crowd of just over twenty-three thousand witnessed a classic at Goodison park, the first shock of the evening came when Jan Mucha was selected ahead of Tim Howard.
Everton began the game well, with Louis Saha forcing Ross Turnbull into a smart save at his near post. It was the Frenchman again causing Chelsea problems, turning on the edge of the area before unleashing a shot which was a comfortable save in the end for the Chelsea keeper. Chelsea then won themselves a penalty with Jack Rodwell fouling Anelka …
So, its Pre-Season time again and clubs are hunting around different clubs, leagues and countries for the next best thing. Unlike Manchester City – who seem to concentrate on bringing in egos and reputations – what Everton – The Peoples Club – were more interested in on doing was looking around for potential. And what I think was a great little piece of business was the capture of impressive Jermaine Beckford. However, the question still remains, is Jermaine Beckford good enough?
A free transfer and a respectable gamble, Beckford has certainly …
Tomorrow Everton go to Anfield, as the big Merseyside Derby game has arrived for the 2nd time this season. The first meeting of the season between the two rivals, ended in a 2-0 win for Liverpool, however since then the Reds form has been pretty mixed. This will be the 213th Merseyside Derby, plus the game will be shown in front of the Sky Sports cameras.

The Toffees go into this game in better shape than Liverpool, as the form books show that Everton are in better form than their rivals. David …
Everton have turned on the style over recent months, as the Toffees are currently unbeaten in nine league games. After yesterday’s impressive win over Wigan Athletic away from home, Everton were able to secure their first back to back clean sheets since the middle of September. Their is only one position on a football pitch that the fans have to thank for that, and that’s the defence.
Philippe Senderos was able to make his debut yesterday, as the defender on loan from Arsenal, had a decent game. Senderos has had a tough …
Tomorrow sees Everton travel to the DW Stadium, in what could be a close affair between the two teams. Everton claimed a very good result in midweek, as they turned over a struggling Sunderland side, 2-0 at Goodison Park…

The Toffees are currently 9th in the Premier League table, and with the way things are going, with the likes of Jagielka, Yakubu and Rodwell waiting to come back from injury, Everton could well hunt down a top six finish. Everton are currently unbeaten in eight league games, however five of those …
One pundit on MUTV was reported as saying Burnley’s victory over Manchester United on Tuesday was ‘nothing but a total fluke’. I hope he’s hungry, because on this showing, there will be a lot of humble pie on his plate come the end of the season. Yes, Everton were poor, once again, but you can only beat what’s infront of you.
Despite their fantastic start to the season, Owen Coyle will not be getting carried away, ala Phil Brown and Hull – even if the Turfmoor faithful are quietly ambitious in …
The summer transfer rumours start here. There have been big names come and gone from other Premiership clubs; however my focus is on my team Everton. So here it is, the list of names to be linked with a move to Merseyside in June.
STRIKER SEARCH – With the lack of Strikers Everton have got, with only Yakubu, Saha and Vaughan to choose from, there have been a number of strikers heavily linked with the club. Michael Owen for one has been linked with a number of clubs including Everton. Hull …
