 Welcome to Toffy TV, it's the match preview Everton versus Crystal Palace, Goodersham Park Sunday, 4 o'clock, there's all the details. 4 o'clock Sunday. It's the game you all want Everton versus Crystal Palace. It's the only game in it. It's the only game on Sunday. Cos the room to get all our magnificent highlights in first. I don't know. It's just the way it is. Big chance for three wins in a row. Big chance. There's a big chance for three wins in a row. They've obviously got some injury problems. We've obviously been waiting on Ghana. We don't know what he's like in terms of fitness. It's always the game after the away win. Which tells you whether the away win was great or not. Do you know what I mean? You get that double bubble from the away win. If we come out Sunday and beat Palace, then that lester win is massive. Cos you've got the back to back wins. Obviously we go to Manchester United next. It's going to be a tough game that one. We can get these three points. We'll go there full of confidence. Then if you were to get a draw at United, you'd go that draw. You keep it going. It's a good opportunity, but it'll be a tough game. These are the games you've got to pick up points from. You've got to go on a bit of a run. If you want to climb that table, you've got to add the moment to click the tables quite. We're feeling positive. We're in 11th place at the moment. That's the way it is. There's a couple more wins and you're in the mix. Cos what you want to be, you want to be... After 12 games or something, the table starts figuring itself out and starts going into three defined groups. What you want to be, if you can be in that top group, then, brilliant. But if you're not, you want to be top of the second group so that you know where you're fighting for the rest of the season. Unfortunately, this time last season, we got dragged into the bottom group and had to fight our way out of it to get into the second group. These games define that. If you put a bit of a run together now, you can sit nicely for the... For that sort of period in the season where I suppose a lot of the teams that haven't got great squads who might have started, well, that's when they'll start dropping off and that's when you can start picking up the points and start climbing the tables. I think it's a really important game. One, it's a hole. For me, we should always win at home games. We've just won two back-to-back. The confidence should be there. There should be now an idea of how we want to play. The manager should be looking at and going, well, that's the system. I'm looking at. And, you know, some of... I've always... I like Christopher Palace, no problem with them. You know, they're always come. They're a hard team, always a hard team to break down. But we should be beating Christopher Palace at home. Again, it's one of those where you say, if you want to do anything, you want to do anything in the Premier League. You did the teams you've got to beat at home. For me, without even looking at the teams or looking who's available, this is a game that we should be picking three points up. Definitely. I mean, we saw last time how more... We probably saw the biggest indicator of what Marco Silva wants evident to be, I think, with that front three, in terms of the movement. You know, obviously, Bernard was fantastic. You know, but taking that... I mean, he won the ball back 14 times on his own in the last half, Bernard, which is incredible, to have that four, you know, to recover the ball 14 times. All of them did with Jarlison, I think it was five or six, they all were seven. So we were getting the ball back high up the pitch and there was two or three occasions where we just took the ball off Leicester and with a better pass or a little bit more clinical. We'd have killed the game off. You know, you're getting keen and zoomer and getting that partnership now where they're looking quite steady. John Joe Kenny, I think, is growing game by game. Luca Dean is being fat. So we've got a good side in place. We're doing well. But you're right, it's a home game and we haven't, let's be honest, we haven't played anyone at home yet. And we really, we should have had four wins out of four and we haven't, for me. For me, I think what we've got to do Sunday is start fast, is put the marker down from the beginning and say this is... because the problem we've got and the problem we'll face on Sunday is a team that'll want to play on the counterattack. Crystal Palace, I don't know where there's a heart. Obviously he's their big man. But they'll want to play on the counterattack. That's where they're starting to lie. They'll want to defend, they'll want to dig in, they'll want to do all the wood hodge and kind of things. And they'll look at Huddersfield, they'll look at Westam and go, well, they got joy. You know, Southampton, some points, you know, got a little bit as well. Full. Couple of things go differently. I know they can say that every single game. But they'll look at that and go, they'll want to play on the counterattack. So for me, the emphasis is on us to start strong and start fast and be at them from the beginning. And I suppose that's where players, like Benard, comes in, somebody can open a team up just with his skill. And it's not a case of... because a lot of the time, saying it in the last 12 months, two years, because we don't have those players who are technically... brilliant, let's just say, we find it hard to break teams down. With him, I think we've got someone that we can open the door. And I think we've just got to, like we were at Leicester, go at them from the start and push them back and say, no, you might want to play counterattack, but we're going to sit in your half and dictate how we play. For them, second half, we did that. And you're seeing the difference. I'll do me transfer. Transfer that away form to our home form now. Because there has been a definite difference in the way the two performances have been. Tempo, Bas. It all comes down to tempo, right? How does any team transfer away form to home form or their style of play? It's tempo. It's playing the ball fast. That's what it comes down to. It's not about how fast your players are at times. It's how fast you can move the ball. You know, you look at any team that has any of the best teams. You don't need to be man city's best team around at the moment. The team are not. They're not full of sprinters, but the full of players are really good. Technically, move the ball really, really fast. And you can move the ball fast and open up spaces and have a couple of creative players who are a little bit different. Who can open their first goal against Leicester when Bernard cuts through the defence like that? That's how you do it. You stop for too long with evidence. Evidence being just like straight lines and easy stuff. I think we've got good variation. I'm not saying we're amazing, but with Bernard on one side and with some of like Walcott, who comes under a lot of criticism for me. I don't think he's been brilliant so far, but he's scored goals and he's made assists. If you can do that and not be brilliant, then that's exactly what you want. He needs to sharpen up a little bit, but if he does, then you've got different ways of playing, and I think that's all I want to see. I just want to see everything be from the off on Sunday and go, you know what, once you're in a role, confidence is flying. Let's be proactive, let's go at them and let's push these back because whether they've got to hard or they haven't got to hard, I still think we're good enough to beat them. I don't think they've got good enough players to beat us. They certainly shouldn't anyway. Yeah, they shouldn't. I mean, I know that's not life. Everyone can beat. I mean West Ham come to us on the back of a terrible run and they couldn't, you know, they couldn't for the past world, be a terrible, and they come and they beat us 3-1, you know, and it was a real shock. You know, when a holder's field come, we were very good and got a point. So it's again the first goal, you know, the difference in both of those two games is that they got the first goal. So that's a big thing for us to get the first goal. But you're right, it's too often a good as an attack. We were too slow moving the ball around and we allowed team, and we did it with full-on. We were too slow in the first half and we allowed them to hit us on the counterattack a couple of times. We got caught giving the ball away, you know, cheaply, and they caught us. And you're right, we could have been behind. We had chances as well. But the second half, when we decided to get at them and the manager said they told them to up the tempo, when they update and we got in people's faces and pressed properly, they couldn't get up their own half. You know, when it was as comfortable a 3-0 win as you'll ever see that one. And that's what we have to do, lest it. You know, the last time out, the first half, they were brilliant. Everything were brilliant. And then, okay, there was 15 minutes, 20 minutes after the break where they come into it, which you'd expect every Premier League game is similar. But then he lost a man on week. If you think about it, they had one chance after Shigarton scored, and it was the header in the last seconds. We really did control it. We controlled the game, and that's what we have to do. And if we move it, you're right, if we move it around and take care of it, they won't get near us because they know we're near us. And what I want to see is do as well, you just use the words to take care of it. If something's not happening, just don't revert to, you know, trying to be too direct. Just keep doing what's happening and something you would imagine would open up. Let's get some shots away. Yeah, of course. I think, you know, again, you want to get the crowd. It's Sunday 4 o'clock. You want to get the crowd going from the start. And that means making an exciting game. But you know, it's not going to be easy because Crystal Palace, you know, will come up and they'll be set up right. And they'll be looking to haters from set pieces and things like that. And they will be looking for their counter-attack. So it's not going to be easy because it never is against Crystal Palace. You know whatever Crystal Palace team you face, it's never going to be easy. We beat them last season, you know, 3-1. The season before, I think it was a 1-1 draw, wasn't it? And it's been... It's been... They're always like bitty close games. And, you know, so... That's just... Our record's better at day. But let's hope we can get out the box. I mean, an exciting thing again for Sunday is the fact that the potential of who's available, you know, maybe apart from Sheamus Coleman, we could have nearly a full squad, you know, to pick from. Now, I imagine he'll probably start with the same 11. Don't see any reasons to change it. But the prospect of players jumping at the bit ready to come back in the next few... No, next... This now, next month or so, it's exciting and it ups. It ups if everybody, everyone's got to be on their game. Everyone's got to be fighting. You know, you lose your spot. You might not get it back. I mean, look at someone like Mason Hallgate, who had the shit. And he gave it away. We lose to Sheamus who's going to come straight back in now. John Joe Kenny has another decent game Sunday. Why should Sheamus come straight back in? You know what I mean? I understand he's a better player in stuff, but it's about performing. If John Joe Kenny's performing, then Sheamus won't do many hands to be shut. But what it does is it just puts the levels up, doesn't it, because it does? You know, I expect... I expect me and Alan Gomez to be shut at the weekend, providing they have no reactions to training this week. I expect them to be in the 18, because what that does is, you're right, it raises everything. It also gives them a taste of it. You know, don't necessarily have to come on to the pitch, but the day, just in case. And it gives everyone, the fans a glimpse of them, which sometimes has helped very helpful, because people start going, we've ever gone to players there and all that. But it gives them part of it. You're right, the players looking and going, my place is all of a sudden, even in the 18. I mean, look at the ass. You know, my ass was so big. Come on at Wolves the first day, come on at... You know, he was there. Do we give him a go, don't we? Next man, he's not even in the 18. Played a couple of... You know, it's come on in both the league cup games, I think. But that's it. Whereas, you know, Jen Towsham was someone who we were like, he's our centre forward, we've got him there. Now he's just so big. But it creates real debate as well, because the worst debate in the world has been regarding Tom Davis. And, you know, whatever side you're on, or what are the options, well, now there's going to be nothing. And now we'll see, hopefully in the next few weeks, we'll see Andre Gomez, and we can have a little look at him and go. Yeah. He could go in that midfield and he could do a job for us. And then suddenly, a Tom Davis, a Garner, a Snidland, they're going, oh God, I've got a... It raises everybody and all those people who want different things. Then suddenly, if there's a case for it, then great. That's exactly what I want. I'm not variation in your team. That's the biggest thing. All the best teams are variation. So no one's the same, and you bring in players in and they're doing different things, and that's how you're winning different games. But also what you want as well is you want to go into every game with the opposition unsure of how you're going to set up. You know, I don't know if this game is ever going to play with Charleston up front. I don't know if they're going to play with Gentulsion because maybe that's what the manager thinks. I don't know whether they're going to go for two creator plays in midfield and one behind or two behind and one in front. You want that for every single game. So the opposition can just go, yeah, it's the same 11 because they play the same 11 every week because at some point that 11, unless the brilliant will be found out one way or another or there'll be something that the opposition will target and if you can give them something to target, then it makes things very difficult for them. So that's a positive thing. I don't know whether what we'll see this weekend and I'm sure we'll see the same starting 11 and it'll be interesting to see whether they are on the bench. Obviously they're going to take time. I haven't kicked the ball for it yet so it's going to take time but I think it makes sense to put them both on the bench. I think what it does is it just you can put them on the bench without giving having any attention of bringing them on but what it does is you're just going the day they're visible to everybody they can warm up the fans they get to know what's the game from the bench you've got to feel for it. But also that I think also that when I think this gets forgotten about when you're sitting in the dugout and you're watching the game at real time you see the ground level and you see the game and you go that's what I've got to come into it and I always think players will watch on the stand or from a box or whatever and then might not have the sound it might be on the phone or whatever or just chatting between them you get down there on the bench you've got to focus on that game because you could be called into it any minute you've suddenly got a you've suddenly got a better idea of what you're when you watch the game at that level pitch level, the speed you see how hard it tackled the speed of the players and everything it changes it does because it's different from sitting up in the stand the pitch looks different from up in the stand what's actually going on it's good I think it'd be good for the pair for the atmosphere to get in and choke it up a little bit beyond the pitch warm up in the crowd and all of that, get all that you know involved and I think it's good for the fans and I think it's good for the manager to look at that bench and go you know what 15 minutes left might need hands like oh it's just to get on here and knock a ball about you might have no intention of bringing it on you know everything could be 3 nil up and could be 3 nil up and you go it's perfect I just gave him a little 10, 15 minutes just a little introduction and get him you know and that's his first thing he topped away then he comes into the train cos that's what we've got to be looking at they've got to be part of the squad and you write every player's got to raise their game otherwise they're going to find themselves out of D18 very quickly yeah it's going to be interesting as you said if Zahar isn't playing cos he's obviously there in Mainland listen he's fantastic it looks like Ben Sech is not playing so he's off for a couple of weeks if Zahar isn't playing then that's too big a tach and threats go on for them but it's just it's just frustrated us because it's a big side and hard work and side so we're going to have to dig from that it's like most Premier League games the first goal will be key you know one day we're going to take all of these chances for making and someone's going to get an iron let's hope it's Crystal Palace yeah I've been saying that into 2000 and more Liverpool are going to have an iron off us at some stage in the next 30 years what do you think let us know your thoughts in the comments on this one do you think this would be this is up for the third win in a role let us know your thoughts in the comments any Palace fans are you optimistic let us know if you haven't subscribed please do click the bell for alerts and if you want more videos like 10 exclusive videos a week then join us on Patreon because why wouldn't you if you want 10 active videos a week see you later
