Jack Grealish left out of Everton squad again for Newcastle trip

Jack Grealish left out Everton squad Newcastle is the key team news as David Moyes’s side visit Newcastle United in the Premier League on Monday night. The 31-year-old is poised to miss a third successive game for Everton, with kick-off updates from 8pm GMT.

Grealish’s latest absence follows a run that has included illness and disciplinary action, while Everton also continue to assess the impact of Thierno Barry after his move from Villarreal.

Grealish set to miss third successive Everton game

Grealish is poised to be absent again when Everton face Newcastle United in the Premier League. It would be the third successive match he has missed for Moyes’s team.

His previous absence came in Everton’s Premier League defeat at Arsenal, when he was missing owing to illness. He was then dropped from Everton’s Carabao Cup win against Matthias Jaissle’s team last Thursday for disciplinary reasons.

The disciplinary issue followed Grealish missing training without permission in the buildup to that fourth-round tie. His absence for the Newcastle trip continues a disrupted spell in Everton’s matchday plans.

Everton head to Newcastle with selection focus on Moyes

Everton’s trip to Newcastle United gives Moyes another Premier League test with Grealish again outside the squad picture. The match is part of Monday night’s Premier League schedule, with the game set around an 8pm GMT kick-off.

The situation places attention on Everton’s attacking options and squad discipline, with Grealish having been unavailable for different reasons across the recent run: illness for Arsenal, then disciplinary reasons for the Carabao Cup tie, and now another expected absence at Newcastle.

Thierno Barry still searching for Premier League rhythm

Thierno Barry’s early Everton spell has also drawn scrutiny. The forward showed enough at Villarreal to persuade Everton to sign him, but he has struggled to settle into the rhythm of the Premier League.

Barry’s league usage underlines that adjustment. He was substituted off 18 times in 21 league starts, while beginning the other 17 games on the bench.

His return stands at eight goals, a total that reflects some contribution but also leaves room for greater consistency as he adapts to Everton’s demands in English football.

What happens next

Everton’s immediate focus is Newcastle United away in the Premier League on Monday night. For Grealish, the next step is a return to the squad after three successive absences; for Barry, the challenge is to turn involvement into a steadier Premier League impact.
