Season › 2024-25 › News Mykolenko Could Return for Historic Final Merseyside Derby at Goodison! Charles Taudin 11/02/2025 8comments | Jump to last Evertonians, the stage is set for one of the most emotional nights in our club’s history—the final Merseyside derby at Goodison Park. A nd in a crucial boost for the Toffees, left-back Vitalii Mykolenko could be back in action to help fight for the blue half of the city! The Ukrainian warrior missed Saturday’s FA Cup clash against Bournemouth with a minor calf issue, but in his press conference on Tuesday, David Moyes delivered the news we all wanted to hear: “He [Mykolenko] started some training today, so hopefully he’ll be available.” With everything on the line, Everton need every bit of strength and passion to take on Liverpool in a showdown that will be remembered. This isn’t just another derby—it’s the last one at Goodison. The ground where we’ve celebrated historic wins, felt the roar of the Gwladys Street, and made memories that will never fade. With three straight league wins under our belt, and now the possibility of Mykolenko’s return, there’s belief in the squad. We’ve seen resilience. We’ve seen heart. And now, it’s time to send the Reds back across Stanley Park with nothing but regret.

Disclaimer () Paul Jones 1 Posted 11/02/2025 at 16:37:32 Very weird tone to this write up. Ukrainian warrior?A quick Google of the author suggests someone into digital marketing with an interest in e-commerce in France.Something about these articles feels very wrong to me. People being shoehorned into positions where they pretend to be ardent Evertonians when they're clearly not. That's fine for official sites but implanting them into fan sites is quite disturbing.

I'd go so far as to say embarrassing. Jay Harris 4 Posted 11/02/2025 at 16:58:14 Charles,You might want to look back at one or two of Lyndon's prematch posts to see what fans expect.I'm not saying you should copy that but it may give you some insight into what goes on for example predicted lineup and tactical assumptions.In other words a bit more meat on the sandwich. Liam Mogan 5 Posted 11/02/2025 at 17:03:19 Maybe English is not Charles' first language.Whatever happened to Anjishu Roy? Rob Halligan 6 Posted 11/02/2025 at 17:09:19 No predicted line up? Liam Mogan 7 Posted 11/02/2025 at 17:13:07 Don't need no stinking line up. Myko the Warrior is back!'The W' is guaranteed! Kev Jones 8 Posted 11/02/2025 at 17:44:11 Paul #1 totally agree.
