 Welcome to Sovi TV, it is the Everton News Daily. Sean Dice has held his pre-Mozzi side Derby press conference today. The Derby takes place on Monday night at 8pm kickoff as at Anfield. His first question, he was asked about how his start at the club has gone, how his first week or so has gone and this is what he had to say. Good, they've been very open I think you know which is important. The honesty through their work on the training pitch has been great and sort of just getting used to us as a staff, as people, not just the training plan and how we go about our business, but also just as people. So obviously I think a performance at a win helps and sort of maybe fast-track some of that but they've been very good. Yeah, good question, I think an even better answer. He was there four days before we even got to know our first game and just after four days he got three points against the league leaders which was a great victory and a great start and I think having Arsenal and Liverpool as his first two games is really tough couple of games. I think getting three points out of the first one is a great start and hopefully we can take this positive week and go into the Derby on Monday and get another three points if not at least a point which I think is likely, I think it's possible. I don't think they're performing amazingly at the moment anyway so who knows. Also in his first week he had some interesting rules as well he was making the plays where his shin pads, he was sending the kick man down to the spot so he had to get socks so the players can wear the shin pads and he got asked about another rule this week today in his past conference and this is what he had to say. Okay, no I don't let them wear snouts, is that what you're looking for? And hats as well, what can you explain a little bit more about? Yeah I can, the rules of the game state you can't wear either. In a, sorry in a game, in an actual match. Yeah I suppose he's right to be honest you can't wear snubs, you can't wear hats in the game and so why should you wear them in training? I don't know if anyone agrees with me but personally my opinion I feel like these small rules and details, if they're strict rules and even if they're like small, like wearing things and not being able to wear things it sets standards at the club, it says he's in charge, he's setting small strict rules. Even if you turn up the training in a wooly hat, it's just a hat and you can still get a fine because it's a strict rule. That shows who's the boss and it's like your demand and respect aren't you? So I think small details and small rules like that would make a huge difference personally. Whether you agree with me or not, that's okay. Moving on, Dominic Cavett-Lewin was asked about, Sean Dice was asked about Dominic Cavett-Lewin's fitness update sorry and this is what he had to say. Yeah we're still monitoring, it'd be touching go at best I think for the Liverpool game so we'll just have to monitor it and hope that it settles down sooner rather later. He's had a couple of niggly injuries which you'd know, getting on top of them, getting his body to adapt and all them things for the longer term obviously. And he put a real shift in, stats are very good in the last game and unfortunately he's just got a niggly hamstring. We've got to get on top of it as quick as we can. Do you think he'll be back this time for Monday? We'll see, like I say, it's touching go at best I would say. Yeah there were some rumours this week that he won't be available to play on Monday. He has had scans on his hamstring, he felt some tightness and it just seems like, you know, he had such a physical game on Saturday and it seemed like he had some tightness going into that game anyway but this is Dominic Cavett-Lewin at the moment, he does miss quite a few games and this is why really we should have bought a life for life back up in January or if not in the summer gone because, you know, you lose Dominic Cavett-Lewin due to injury or whatever and you can't put a life for life in, you've got to change your system because he was so vital to how we played and how we got up the pitch against Arsenal. I would not be able to do that against Liverpool. We don't have someone who can, you know, win as many areas. I think he won about nine Ervil Jules or eight Ervil Jules against Arsenal. You know, Malpay is not going to do that. Malpay not be able to hold the ball up for an extra three seconds what Dominic Cavett-Lewin could, which allows you to get up the pitch. So it will be interesting to see what we do to remedy that situation on Monday. Another question Sean Dice has asked about was Isco. Isco has been linked to Everton. He's a free agent. Personally, I've said before I wouldn't second him but this is what Sean Dice had to say when asked if there's a possibility that Isco or any other free agents could come to Everton. Well, actually spoke about the idea of looking at the squad, not deciding whether it's good enough or not, just looking at it and working with the squad that we've got as a reminder, if you like. So are some very good players here. Players outside of that would monitor their situations as we do and make a decision in due course. But at the moment, we're working with the squad that we've got. Yeah, good answer. I suppose if you look at our squad, there is quite a bit of quality in there. You could say with a good manager like Sean Dice, it's too much quality to be relegated. So I suppose he's right, he's got to work with the squad he's got and I think if any free agents came in, you've got to think why are the free agents and how they were going to fit into the squad. I look at Isco and I don't think he fits into our team. I don't know how Sean Dice would work with him You know, like I said, why has nobody got near him anyway? So yeah, I suppose that puts to bed any rumours to transfers right now. But one play we have been rumoured with this week and today again is Hoffenheim would feel that Dennis Geiger, we were linked with him the other day and we've been linked with him today again. He's 24 years of age, he's a free agent in the summer. So I'm not going to sit here and say I've watched him at all. I don't think he's an international so I want to watch him in the World Cup either. He's a German player. I suppose the type of player we should be looking at is the right age, 24 years of age. He's not going to cost us anything as a free agent. He's a talent, we've watched him before. For me, I would want to see us get some forwards in but obviously we need to strengthen other area pitch as well. So I'd like us to be linked with some pretty good forwards, some strikers or some wingers because that's what we need in the summer regardless whether we stay up or go down. But yeah, I suppose in terms of the type of player he is, creative midfield, 24 years of age and he's a free agent. I think you couldn't really say no to it. He's talented, you're not risking a lot by spending a lot of money on him. Like I said, he's a free agent so I don't see why not. That's been linked with a couple of times now. We have been linked with him in the past as well. I've seen him since I've been watching him for a few years. So probably one more than likely but we'll just have to wait and see. There's some other clubs I'm interested in but I think Frankfurt are also interested in him. So we'll have to just wait and see what happens. But yeah, that's all the news for today. Let me know what you think about Dennis Geiger. And let me know your score but it can show Monday as well by the way. Sean Dice seems quite positive about it. I'm feeling okay about it so let me know how you're feeling.
