It happens every year. More or less. Everton started poorly in the Premier League once more in 2024/25 but stretched their unbeaten run to three matches in a drab draw against Newcastle United before the October international break.
The series pause is now upon us, and though some Toffees fans might anticipate watching Lee Carsley’s England – and whoever else they support – in action, it’s fair to say that the majority simply wish for Everton to get back in action and continue this budding resurgence.
Many a team’s momentum has been curbed by mid-season pauses, but with an ostensibly favourable run of fixtures up ahead in the English top flight, Sean Dychewill be confident that his team, 16th in the standings after seven games, can make headway.
