For the final post-match of the year, the ATP brings you a full analysis and MORE after a controversial 2-1 loss at the Emirates vs. the Gunners. In a match that meant absolutely nothing due to the City win and Brentford loss, Everton conclude their season with 48-8 points, good enough for 15th in a rather down year from the Premier League, but fully safe from relegation under all circumstances. Alex and Ryan bring to you all the highs and the lows of a fairly uneven match in Arsenal’s favor, but also get into some of the squad news and the implications as Everton go into the summer. A final thanks to all of the pod’s loyal listeners and the tremendous club support that has us continue to do what we do – and as you all know; it’s not always been easy. Onwards and upwards!

It’s nice to finally have a match without majors stakes involved, although we can’t say Everton’s 1-1 draw at Kenilworth Road was the most entertaining affair.   The full power trio is together this week to bring you all a relatively relaxing pod with lots of listener comments and lots of disagreement on VAR and penalties.  The ATP gets into some of the tactics as well as some of the individual performances in a match that lacked quality at times.  Alex, James, and Ryan also get into the remaining matches and the chances of Everton keeping Brentford behind them in the standings and whether or not they could catch Crystal Palace.

Despite this being maybe the most trying season in Everton’s history, with turmoil at every step of the way, Everton have finally ensured safety with a 1-0 win vs. Brentford to make it 9 points in a single week at Goodison Park.  
It was a match that seemed improbable in many ways; from the long moments of possession, to the unlikely goal scorer, and ultimately, to the relatively low-stress environment thanks to the Luton Town loss earlier to Wolves.  But what is NOT improbable, is the ATP bringing its loyal listeners all sort of humor from our discord as well as analysis from many of our other loyal listeners.  
James and Ryan get into the tactics, the individual performances, and finish with a solid referendum on Sean Dyche and the jobs he’s done under difficult circumstances.  AND... BREATHE!

Everton win the 244th Merseyside Derby by a score of 2-0!!! EFC's first Derby win at Goodison since 2010. Liverpool’s title chances dealt a near-fatal blow after Jarrad Branthwaite's first half scrambled goal was coupled by a thundering DCL header in the 2nd period of play. James and Alex are here for an old school ATP basking in the glory of 3 points and a hard-nosed, sp*rited display from Tracksuit Dyche's men. 
The guys of course discuss what was a rather frantic timeline, key in on some of the top performances including Pickford and Gana Gueye, and breathe a sigh of relief as the Blues have virtually ensured safety in the (corrupt) Premier League for our final season at Goodison. 
American Toffee Vibescast is here! Hope you all enjoy. UTFT
