 Hello, welcome to Toffy TV, it is the Everton News Daily. Sean Dyche has held his pre-match press conference ahead of Everton's trip to Crystal Palace tomorrow night in the third round of the FA Cup. The first question Sean Dyche faced today was how he can get Everton back to the levels when they won four games on the spin. This is what the manager had to say. Yeah, I think that's the key to the bigger picture, is the performance levels have been very good. We didn't get the two results against City and I suppose you said the performances were there. First time we'd stepped to, I mentioned after the game really, with our performance level since Villa, but different aspects to it, injuries, interventions, all taking that toll over the last few weeks. And eventually I think the players, the game schedule, which don't get me wrong, I'm not changing the storyline, it's there, we all get on with it. But it did catch up with us, I think that was quite obvious with the performance. Sean Dyche was then asked if Everton had any plans to bring in any new players now that the January transfer window is open. Obviously Kevin Thelwell had done an address to supporters before the Manchester City game saying it was likely to be a quiet month. Jay and Lestag on it asked Sean Dyche every time, if there's any plans to bring in players in this window, this is how the manager responded to that one. To do any deal, there has to be finance abroad, the club has to be in a situation to do the deals, we have to work very hard. Kev certainly had to work hard to construct deals that could be worked into the way the club were in the summer. I managed to do that, as we said, managed to rebalance the squad, the best we could, we had to lose some players as well. The situation is similar but different. You never know the twists and turns of football, all our deals present themselves, but at this moment in time it's very likely to be quiet. Would the takeover go in through make any discernible difference to the ability? Yeah again we'll see because they've been very casual with their information to us because it's not a done deal yet. So therefore they said look we're not going to get involved with things because you know all the due diligence, the checks and everything. So they're very upfront with us. I did say we had a very casual chat about life at Everton, what it was. They were picking our brains about learning about it and becoming more informed but that was it. And finally from the press conference, Dice was asked for an injury update ahead of the game tomorrow. This is what the manager had to say about that one. Just about but it would be a touching go scenario. And Idrissa Gay as well, what's happening with him? Will he go to Afcon? Probably well, he's still here at the moment receiving treatment but if that treatment comes to an end which it probably will do, maybe over the week and early next week and then of course their power is to call him up. Any further updates on Ashley Young and Deli as well? Yeah Deli's still, he's been assessed, he's got an injury that still needs time, it did do anyway. We've been trying to take the heat away from that to allow him time but of course it's fair everyone asks the question. Young, he was out in the grass today but on the medical side so he's still got a bit to go but it's good to see him back out. So good news there that the Coray is back in train but obviously as the manager said he is touching go for the game at Palace tomorrow night. Everton defender Ben Godfrey has been linked with a move to Newcastle United. This is following on from being linked to Spares last week. A report of feet of around £9 million has been mooted for Godfrey who turns 26 later this month. He's only played three times for Everton this season. Finally Everton have recalled young defender Rhys Welch for a miss loan at EFL league two-side Forrest Green Rovers. Welch who's played 23 times for Forrest Green in the first part of the season but Everton have recalled him and wanting to go on loan somewhere else. James Vaughan is sorting that one out and we'll see where Rhys ends up. That is it for the news daily. The match preview is out now for the Crystal Palace game. Make sure you check that one out.
