Sean Dyche gives free agents transfer verdict as Everton charged for Liverpool incident

Here are your Everton evening headlines for Thursday, February 16.

Sean Dyche makes Everton free agents admission and sends transfer plea to supporters

Sean Dyche believes it is unlikely Everton will bring a free agent to the club and has called for patience as he tries to address the imbalances in his squad.

Everton and Liverpool charged by FA after melee incident during Merseyside derby

Everton and Liverpool have both been charged by the Football Association for failing to control their players and benches during Monday’s Merseyside derby.

It all started when Andy Robertson kicked the ball away after being flagged offside, leading to a retaliation from Jordan Pickford. An outraged Conor Coady then appeared to grab Robertson by the neck as both sets of players became involved.

Soon the substitutes on both benches ran down the touchline as the Anfield noise heightened. Amadou Onana and Konstantinos Tsimikas also had a coming together.
