The Dyche Effect - most distance covered by Everton in any game all season, and by some margin Onana, McNeil & Doucoure all covering more ground than any Everton players have in a game this season

The Dyche effect 👇

PL games with a side recording 44+ touches in the box this season: 29 Times that side has failed to score and lost: 1 - Everton (v Aston Villa)

Thank you to Sports Journalists for choosing Monday Night Football as the Television Show of the Year! #SJA2023 #MNF

Consistently impressed by the use of data on Sky’s Monday Night Football. Don’t think any other television programme in the UK would spend so long discussing fairly complex graphs. I spent Monday watching them put it all together. ⬇️ nytimes.com/athletic/54922…
