 Hello and welcome to ToffeeTV this is the Sunday supplement Everton. Two little winners at Anfield for the first time in 22 years. The last time that happened I was nine years of age and I've taken a lot of abuse in that time. I've taken a lot of stick and now it's finally time after a long period to have my own laugh and our own laugh at their expense. Thanks to Carlo Ancelotti and his absolute master plan. What a manager. His game plan was just if anyone else had to be Liverpool at Stapman you know and you know I think the best thing about it was we still didn't have I suppose two of our main players starting the game as well and we kept one on the bench anyway. So I'll go through the low and up anyway. We had Pickford back and go for Olson which made sense and I thought Pickford had his probably his best game for Everton I've seen in about three years. I thought he was absolutely brilliant from his kick into his saves save from Henderson and a couple of other saves after that. I thought he was absolutely outstanding and justified and hopefully now he can kick on from this and go on to just I suppose stop making himself a headline for the wrong reasons you know making that odd mistake here and there and stuff like that. If you can get that out of this game we know there's a good keeper. I was going to say goalkeeper as a keeper. Yeah and look you know they've taken the piss out of him for having small arms for this and that and I've been critical of Pickford myself but look if he can produce moments like this going forward then you have to say we have a great goalkeeper on our hands which we all knew the potential was there but he needs to show these types of performances match winning performances on a regular basis to be Everton's number one so we can be where we want to be in terms of you know fighting for top four being back in Europe regularly. If he wants to be that keeper to help us get there he needs to produce moments like that time and time again so yeah Jordan Pickford absolutely excellent then he had Holgate at right back and that was just I think that was purely down to a kind of paced decision he had Holgate there you know genuinely when we're going against fast opposition he'll put Holgate there instead of James Coleman and not that James Coleman's slow but he is getting on in his years at the moment although you wouldn't know what the performance of him yesterday but yeah look he was amazing Holgate was in there to do a job and they thought he'd done it well and he was protected but there was a few moments of him as well which was to be expected because considering it's not his natural position it was to be expected but beside him then he had Ben Goffrey who I thought maybe Ben Goffrey would have been better placed at right back but look it didn't really matter he put him in centre back he had Michael Keane he was outstanding as well and I love Ben Goffrey by the way I think he's been our best sign and you know ahead of Hamers and ahead of Decorey and something like that just purely because you think of the games where we thought we were going into games and we thought we were going to struggle and we had him playing left back and he helped us get over the line in them games just from being absolutely solid and absolutely rapid fast and recovering and stuff like that so brilliant with him look at the left back you know you're going to get out of Lucas to be honest a fabulous player I think then with James Coleman kind of covering the right hand side Mark and Andy Robinson there were the game and I tell you do a brilliant job just kind of tracking him kept him very very quiet and there was a great battle between the two of them you know the Irish captain against the Scottish captain so I think Coleman more than held his own against him on that side and you know same as the game against where James came in to do a job and did it thoroughly and the way he spoke before the game and after the game that's exactly what we want from our captain and I feel lucky to have a captain like him who captains my country and my club I absolutely love the man I you know I struggle to think of someone who represents what we're all about so much and with such class you know he played in the last time we beat him at Goodison which was 2010 I think and um obviously set up the goal for Tim Cahill in the end and you know it's obviously been hard for him he's been in and out through injuries he missed a lot of games at Anfield as well but we felt probably like he could have been a help in that sense but look he played yesterday played his part and you know it was delighted for him and the scenes are full time with him but uh yeah really really happy with how James played and is playing at the moment Ireland have you know qualifying games next month now and I'm going to be looking at him to be the one leading them there so hopefully he can keep playing the way he is for Everton and obviously bring that club form into international form to help Ireland qualify for the World Cup in midfield then Tom Davis ah what a man absolutely buzzing with his performance a lot of people giving him stick and stuff like that I really want to see Tom kicking on and when he's playing like that genuinely I think that Alan will find it difficult to come in and play that position unless he's going to play just ahead of him alongside the Coral Raid because Andre Gomez isn't up too much and then Alan's obviously class but Tom Davis to come in there I think he found his position that deep low in playmaker and just kind of gets on the ball you know draws in fells wins us fells in our half to get us you know out take the pressure off us basically and that's what he did and he played the game not the occasion so I think you have to give him credit in that sense himself and Holgate and a couple of others have been guilty of kind of letting the occasion get to them in the past and flying into tackle stat just you don't need to be flying and things stuff like that and I just thought yesterday maybe Carl I must have said something to him but he just kept his composure the only real time I so I'm having a little bit of a nibble and it was a bit of a clever play was when Alexander Arnold or something was putting the ball out for a throw or something and he gave me a little push and you could see him laughing as he was going away because he knew he was in his head so yeah absolutely buzzing for Tom Davis and now people might get off his back and start getting behind him I know the lads pen bars have been pushing for people to get behind him rather than slating them I think in the last maybe five games he's been really really good and hopefully he could just keep building on this and building on this and the more minutes he's getting the better he's becoming I think and as I say he's found his position there as our deep player to core I thought actually had a poor game given the ball away and off a lot although he was good getting up and down in possession he was brutal and he kept putting us under under pressure it's a worse game I've probably seen him play maybe that sounded harsh because I love the core by the way I just think yesterday I just didn't think he had a good game but he obviously still has quality the fact that he still stayed on the pitch and was still able to help us get the win so I don't I'm not saying that in a negative way towards him in case you think I am I just think that was his worst game in an Everton shirt but hopefully he'll learn from it and doesn't do it again because I think he's been absolutely excellent and he's been carrying the team a little bit in midfield especially while the likes of Alan has been out. Andre Gomez he's walking a tight rope he made a couple of fells and looking to get yellow card earlier on I thought he'd actually be subbed a half time I was worried there was a one fell where he gave away just before half time and I thought he was going to be booked again and my heart was in my mouth but thankfully he didn't and not long after in the second half then you know Guilty came on for him because as I say I was worried he was going to get another yellow and he didn't really do anything anywhere while he was on the pitch of notes so it is what it is but then because of the way we were kind of forming it was like a I don't know a five three two almost but Hamas just kind of beside Richard Allison but he wasn't really playing as a striker he was kind of just dropping deep and look the guy Hamas he's just absolute quality like he might not do a whole lot in the whole game that he plays but what he will give you is maybe three or four moments of magic which can lead to a goal and that's why Carlo has him at the club and look at that pass that he did for Richard Allison for the first goal. I struggle to think of many others that you know in our squad actually no one in our squad would be able to pick that pass out and that just goes to show the quality of Hamas Rodriguez and to be honest with you we're very lucky to have someone like him and let's not forget we got him on a free transfer and look at the moments he's produced for us this season you know he'd have his own highlight really if you actually look back in the season and leave him over here in terms of assists and his goals and look he may not do the dirty work in terms of defending and stuff like that but I did think he did what he could yesterday I did think he was trying to drop back in the thing when we had to and look I love the guy I think he's absolutely fantastic and I just love the fact that we have our club someone like that who in my lifetime of sporting we haven't had too many world-class players come to the club I think they're too kind of the club quite late in his career and stuff like that and I know as many younger viewers that be watching this video and probably agree with me and they probably haven't seen ever beaten Liverpool in their lifetime they're really young ones and especially I am feel that was nine as I mentioned earlier in the show but and to have someone like that like I wasn't old enough to appreciate Gonzalez because so Samuel Etto who probably Lukaku two degree would probably be on that kind of level and I think Lukaku got better as he got older I add into my land now but I look around and I just don't think we've ever had someone close to the quality of Hamas Rodriguez in the kind of age frame that he's at and you've seen something in the paper about him being not happy not settled in England I think that I think that was wiped clean after the final whistle when he was celebrating with Duncan and stuff like that that's what we want to see Hamas Rodriguez embodied everything that everything is about Amber Charleston then he he obviously takes his goal really well and just led the line well you know he do what he can he chased everything down and he was pivotal to the results because the way he played and I know he's not been having the best of seasons I still don't think he's been as bad as people have been making him out to be he's looked frustrated at times I get that and I appreciate that but yesterday it was great to see him get his goal great to see him happy and uh oh his goal was fantastic and it was brilliant to see and they hate him so much which made it even better so the fact that he was the one that got the goal and you know although we got the goal quite early you know I think they mentioned that I think Seamus mentioned it after the game but like they would have probably tried to play a bit more out from the back but the the fact that we were holding onto a lead so early in the game but the weirdest thing was I have time I I actually felt like confident that we would win the game and that's only because we've beaten the likes of Leicester and Chelsea and stuff like that playing the way we played yesterday I just don't understand why we don't play that way against more teams let them come on to us defend and then hit them on the counter because it clearly works for us so I would like to see us maybe continue to play this way for the rest of the season I don't know whether that's Carlo trying to you know put off different managers by playing different ways because they might be expecting to play a certain way and they'd be preparing for that and that's what I thought was funny when Klopp said before the game that Cavalud and Alan were on the bench because he said something about Carlos poker face or something like that look Carlos knows what he's doing he's a world-class manager and I think he showed that again and I read Julian Laran's tweet saying that the Coray said after the game he was speaking to him that Carlo told him that they were going to go and win so I think that's the difference we've had managers who's just absolutely crumbled over the years when we went near there no I know there wasn't fans and stuff like that but look it's a mentality change that's slowly happening he's bringing in his own players I think in the summer you'll see a real influx of players that he wants at the club who I think will really kick us on next season but look Cavalud and came off the bench the second half guilty came off the bench as well and done really well Cavalud led the line and I think Dom is so pivotal to the way we play up front I think when he doesn't play we miss and lack a lot I think that showed even with Richard Alisson leading the line but when the two of them together played together I love it because teams are so fearful of them you think your man come back anytime any ball went over the top you could see he's clearly shit themselves and we were tagging and Pickford was hitting it long and Richard Alisson was getting in nearly every time it happened but then anyway they had a couple of chances and something like that my heart was in my mouth a couple of times Pickford made a brilliant save I think it's from Salah you kind of cut in a little bit of play with I think it was Alexander Arnold and Salah and Pickford makes two big saves in that moment and at that point I was thinking okay look we're under the cost here but then he brought on I think Dom he brought on Dom at that stage then and then that's when we we went down it and then Tom Davies would then absolutely sublime pass out to Richard Alisson then the foot race was on he gets a lovely ball in to Carvert Leone who then gets a shot off Alisson saves and then as he goes to hit it again he manages to kick Alexander Arnold but since watching replays Alexander Arnold sticks his leg in the air and trips him up anyway the referee went off to the monitor looked at the monitor and said now look penalty boom and guilty to his credit some set of balls on him stepped up and he took the penalty so cooling ice man absolutely brilliant penalty I was tuned in and at that stage I never get too too high a mighty until the game is over but I was thinking you know what we've won this game I know that when we're playing like this and when we have that solidity nobody really scores on us and I knew at that point then we were going we were going to win and it's just so nice to be able to say we bet them at Amfield and it's great because there's not a lot of noise out you know I tweeted earlier and I said you know why is like I have seen a couple of people being like oh they're celebrating like they won the league and stuff why are you not allowed to celebrate when you've beaten your rivals what is with this internet thing is oh you're not allowed to celebrate a victory it's just like that's what we support football teams is to enjoy these moments when you beat your rivals and stuff like that it doesn't mean it's the highlight of our season like some of them make it out to be it probably will be one of the highlights of the season but you know I like what Seamus Coleman says like yeah we've beaten them but now we need to focus on the targets of getting into Europe or you know winning a trophy maybe beating city and going on them to you know try beat them in the FA Cup this is what we should be aiming for and that's we shouldn't be dwelling on the fact oh we beat Liverpool uh uh Anfields now wow all right moving on that's done Carlo is drinking his coffee now cool as you like plotting things for the future but we need to stop losing to the likes of Fulham and Newcastle and these shy teams like that who are absolutely woeful and they look at us and we can pull up the performance against Liverpool and and Lester and Arsenal and Chelsea Spurs and then we go and crumble to the likes of Fulham and Newcastle now I appreciate we did look tired against Fulham after the game against Spurs but we do we need to start showing more consistency and this home form thing is is ridiculous so we need to change that but I'm not finishing this on a negative we're beating Liverpool at Anfield for the first time in 22 years I am buzzing you are
