Seamus Coleman. Djibril Sidibe. Jonjoe Kenny.Three names to occupy the right-back berth and, you would think, only two spaces available in Marcel Brands and Carlo Ancelotti's plan for a 23-man squad at Everton next season.One name will presumably need to be offloaded to reach the two-per-position quota at Goodison Park and the Royal Blue Podcast met this week to discuss the dilemma.The victory over Crystal Palace, Richarlison's importance and Jordan Pickford's progress are also on the menu as host Phil Kirkbride, the ECHO's Everton correspondent, is joined by Chris Beesley and Sam Carroll.Phil asks the panel what holiday destination they would choose if they were a footballer on their winter break while comparisons with Ronald Koeman's side of 2016/17 are made.

Royal Blue: Why Heung-Min Son's red card shouldn't have been rescinded and how Everton should react to VAR controversies
Controversy has dominated the conversation around Everton over the past week. The club's draw with Spurs might be a good few days gone now, but the ramifications of that match are still being felt. Phil Kirkbride is joined by David Prentice, Gavin Buckland and Adam Jones to discuss all of those - including a decision to rescind Heung-Min Son's red card for a foul on Andre Gomes. The narrative to that incident in the wider media is also discussed - as of course is VAR and whether Marco Silva should be more angry about decisions going against his side. And there's the little matter of a match against Southampton to preview, and our panel talk about whether this is a must-win game for the boss or not. Enjoy.

Royal Blue: Exclusive chat with Everton legend Derek Mountfield
Everton legend Derek Mountfield makes a guest appearance alongside ECHO Head of Sport David Prentice and host Chris Beesley in a Royal Blue podcast special.Looking forward to getting back together with his team-mates from the most-successful season in Everton's history for the first time in more than three decades at the St George's Hall showing of new film Howard's Way which pays tribute to the glorious 1984/85 campaign, Derek regales us with a mountain of magical memories as towering as one of his trademark headers which were the backbone of the centre-half's 14 goals that term as he and his pals enjoyed the best year of their lives.A lifelong Blue who lived the dream of turning out for his boyhood heroes during their finest hour, Mountfield recalls in vivid detail many of the pivotal moments from his time at Goodison Park and speaks candidly on how Marco Silva's current side have struggled to live up to such ideals.He also explains his own role in the film which involved him clambering up into his loft to unearth a treasure trove of Everton artefacts and speaks about finally lifting the lid on living with epilepsy – a condition that he and his employers kept secret from the public throughout his playing career but which he suspects may have ultimately curtailed his time at the Blues.

View from the Gwladys: Son’s tackle and why Silva’s clear lack of fight is cause for concern
A difficult game for the Blues against Spurs turned into a nightmare as arguably Everton’s best midfielder, Andre Gomes suffered a nightmare injury leaving his season in tatters. If things couldn’t get any worse, VAR was up to its old tricks again. Yes, Sunday will be one to remember, but for all the wrong reasons. This week’s fan podcast sees host Ian Croll joined by guests, Ben Crawford and Tom Clarke as they look back at a torrid afternoon at Goodison Park. The Son tackle, the Andre Gomes injury, the farce that has become VAR. We haven’t even got to the footballing side of things yet. Everton’s performance wasn’t the best, but to take a positive, Marco Silva’s men didn’t lose the game taking a point in the last minute with a Cenk Tosun header. Marco Silva was visible shaken in his post-match press conference and the lads question whether he has the fight to take Everton forward. Where do Everton go from here? The immediate answer is Southampton away, but what does Marco Silva do with his team selection and how does he lift his players? All that and plenty more in this week’s fan show.
