Can I go back to last Saturday and just ask you what the mood was like in the dressing room after that defeat against Southampton? How did the players react? Was it vocal? Listen, the players don't want to be in this position. I think the realities were here and there were lots of reasons for that. But the players don't want to be here so they should have human reactions after games and I had things to say. Because from my point of view in the position wherein the first thing we have to do is fight and be ready for the fight. So if the players in the dressing room are disappointed we lost then that's good. And if they want to fight and be a good teammate and not think about themselves, think about the team and trying to get the result the next week and train through the week with great intensity and whether they're starting or they're not being together, that's all I want. And I think after the back of games like Southampton that reality becomes even more clear. How's that happened then this week? Yeah, the lads are training. Again it's one of those questions you ask me every week and I don't think you'd expect that I'd say no, they look terrible like we're in a bad position. You know, it's one of those. The reality is wherever a player is, whether their confidence is down a little bit or wherever they're out in their game they have to think about what is the way out of difficult moments. And I've been in many in my career and the only way is work and the only way is focus and the only way is being really unselfish about it and putting yourself to the limit. And that's exactly where we are. Obviously your job is to manage the side-and-win football matches. Is tomorrow one of your biggest in terms of you talk about the personal side of things. For you as a manager, is it a must-win game as far as your future is concerned? Do you see it that way? Well, I don't know. I only have to prepare for the game. You know, you say it's a big game for me. I played and managed in many, many big games with a lot of jeopardy on certain games whether one will make you into the Champions League the next year, whether one will keep you in the league last year, whether one will get you in the playoffs or not. You know, these are big games and they're all relative. I'm not making light of this but there are 17 more games to go after this game and I have to prepare for this game at the weekend so I'm not thinking of the ifs and buts of the back-end of this game. Obviously the fans will continue to support the players on the pitch that demonstrated that but that goodness and factor that you seem to relied on so heavily doesn't seem to be working at the moment given the recent results. Do you think you might be better off away from home and less pressure on the players at the moment? Well, it's never easy going away in the Premier League. It's really tough everywhere you go. And of course West Ham have a lot of this game as well and so they'll have their fans trying to inject something into the game, the players understanding the situation. So I wouldn't compare it. I don't think I could say, you know, this is great, we're going away in the Premier League. It's never easy. We just have to focus on what we're delivering the game. West Ham, as you say, you're in a similar position to yourselves not with any of the last seven. That's pressure, isn't it? Are you able to apply the pressure on them because of their situation in that sense? We'll see. I can't speak for how they'll play, what pressure they feel. What we can do is we can control how we approach the game, go into it at the right attitude, the right mindset, the right idea. And I mentioned the words fight and mentioned the words work before we have to go into all these basics to try and make the most out of it if they're in a difficult position, but we only can focus on ourselves. Danny Ng's a sign for them today. He's been a bit of a thorn in Everton's side in the past. He always causes problems for defenders who've got to prepare for that. He's a fantastic striker, a really, really good striker. I've always had a lot of admiration for him as a player and as a lad. I don't sound that well, but he seemed a real team lad. So, of course, someone would have to be very aware of because he's a top striker. Someone you would have liked here. He's a top striker. Still in the hunt, transfer market-wise. The rumours continue, but is there a desperation and a need to get new players in? We absolutely want to help and the squad said it a lot and we want to make the squad stronger. And we're aware and I'm aware that everyone's trying to do the same thing and teams around us are working on their squads and getting competition in forward areas, particularly, especially for our sort of teams where we are. We know we need more competition, maybe more clinical nature about us at the top end of the pitch. That's the reality, again, that we have to understand and we've got to try and improve it. It's not an easy window. That's clear and people are working towards trying to bring in players. And I, as coach, be the first one that knows that we need to help it. I'll work then in the next two weeks. Thank you. Frank, you mentioned the hard work and the fight and what have you from the players. When you compare the situation you were in last year and the changes that you've made in the squad since, do you see enough to make you confident that the players that you've got here now compared to last year have got the same stomach for the fight for a relegation this year? In certain areas we have the same players that we had last year and that fight had been for it before. In certain areas, I think especially defensively, we added players with a real character and personality. That's why up until recently in a tough run of form we were one of the best defensive teams in the league. And of course we've lost a big player in Richells and it was a real sort of talisman of ours in that sort of running. So there are different elements that we need to show again in terms of fight to show that we've got the capacity I came in, I think with 18 games to go last year. So we're in a similar spot to where we were last year. And the emotions change weekly by a result throughout those 18 games. I lived that last year and it was an amazing experience. Not always good, the end result was good. So I know what it takes and some of the players do. But that's all words. When it's in front of us again now we absolutely have to act on it. And following on from that you mentioned that the experience is particularly that you've had as a player and obviously games that have got jeopardy on them have probably had more successes than failures as far as that's concerned. I'm not sure. But as a manager I would expect that feeling of stress and strains and the pressure is far more concentrated because you're the man that ultimately is responsible. Do you get that feeling and how do you actually deal and cope with that? Yeah, it's a pressurised job, there's no doubt. But many people outside of football do a very pressurised job with more jobs with more at stake. So I never try to cry too much about that because I'm very proud and honoured to manage great football clubs like I have actually in my managerial career. So I manage that. I'm quite good with our play for a long time. It helps you adapt when you have been a player for a long time and fortunate enough to fight in lots of different things like you say. As you say there's many failures in my head as there were successes because I remember those even better some time. So I'm well equipped myself to deal with the pressures that come with this. Thanks Fraser, I've got a Simon at the BBC. Hi Frank, does it almost feel like crisis management for you at the moment? It seems as though either on or off the pitch there's always something coming that year, results, demonstrations, whatever it is. It feels as though it's like a crisis job. I don't know, those are your words but it's challenging of course. Not all of those things have fallen under my responsibility and I'm not taking my responsibility away. I'm a manager and coach of the club but there are things I have to prioritise and focus on and the first one is always the football side of it because that's the thing I can affect most closely with the players. So of course if we're in a tough run like we are in a minute it's how can I lift the players, how can I get into them, talk to them, give them the way, show them the way and the idea and keep them together. So that's my first priority at the minute but I understand it's a tough moment and I'm also aware of the noise and what's happening around. So those things are there. I have to try and make them the least distraction possible from the football side. Not always easy, not always that simplistic because we're living in a world of young players and social media and a lot going on. But myself and the players have to try and push that to the side and go what can we do to train them and be ready for Saturday. I mean it'd be easy saying you because you don't distract me as that kind of person it'd be easy for younger players to use what's happening as an excuse to say well things are going wrong but what do you expect with all this chaos going around? I think the thing I learnt, one of the earliest things I learnt in professional football and maybe my upbringing to be fair was that the minute you make excuses or blame or try and apportion blame to anything else other than your own input and what you can do to something it's the minute you fail as far as I see it. So if the first thing I'd say to the players would be to not look anywhere else but themselves and don't get me wrong I have to manage when I say manage people not just a player. I understand when certain things are difficult, a lack of confidence, something not going right in their games and something around them that is not helping enough to mitigate that and try and do my best with that and try and support and help the players as well as I can to get the best performance. So I always have to be aware of those things and in these moments if they're challenging then so be it, you do the best you can. And just in terms of you won't tell us what conversations you have with the owners but are they honest conversations because you're talking there about players coming in, you obviously know how good your squad is compared to everybody else who's going out and spending money. Are they honest conversations that you're having with the board and saying look if these things don't happen this is what is likely to happen? That part is not what the conversation was but they are honest. I have to be honest because it's my job and the job is in the now and if I don't say my honest opinion now then I wouldn't be doing my job right I have to say it as I see it and of course the owners or the board have to work in the structure that they know what they can do and we have to speak about budgets, what we can do, where the squad's at so they have to be honest. The reason they stay private I just think is pretty normal. I think it's very normal that those conversations would remain private but they are honest. Thanks Simon, we'll go to James at Radio Merseyside please. Hi Frank, you'll have seen the videos of some of the players trying to get away from the stadium last week. What were your feelings about that and if you had to have conversations with the players about what they should do in those situations? I've spoken to some of the players. I think firstly this is not just an evident situation. I've been in football a long time but I keep saying that but I have and I've been at teams where similar things have happened to maybe myself to a degree and other players so let's not just try and make this an evident conversation. This club has a huge passion which I think is pretty unique. I've said that in the good times so I can say it in the lots of good times and sometimes passion can overspill in a good way when we saw last year with all the welcomes and all these things and maybe especially when it's minority cases of certain incidents and now everything gets video so it becomes viral like it happens every day and that's not necessarily the case. I know the majority of Evertonians just want this team to do well and they've got an absolute right to voice an opinion in a game, around a game, before a game in the pub, all those things. Of course we don't want fans going up to players. I think it's a small minority spoken to the players and we don't want that and I'd love to not see that again but I also understand the passion of fans and what they want and the players have to not accept responsibility but understand when they're working in this industry lucky to do a good job that sometimes they have to take some things but I think with those things we hope that they don't happen again. And as well-intentioned as the supporters may be is there a concern over player safety in that situation? I'd like to hope not and I haven't seen anything that's got to those levels at all and we'd like to hope not and again I think it's passion and we obviously hope that things would never overspill. Again we all want the same thing as a club and when I talk about that club I mean everybody together it's what saw us be such a force but a force in getting out of that relegation battle in terms of the big games that we won, everyone was together and it was a great feeling and I'm not here asking or telling anyone how to act but we know that when we're like that and our responsibility as players and staff is to produce the football side of it sometimes they come hand in hand and they work together and you have to rely on the fans sometimes and they have to rely that the players will do something out of the ordinary to win a game. At the minute those things aren't happening in-game for us to be fair. There were games that we've played recently at home probably not Brian because I think it was emphatic in the six, seven minutes finished a game but we've been competing in every game of things that would go for you and the table would look dramatically different I'm not going away, we can't moan about that or complain because it's a reality we just have to keep working. And specifically what do you want to see from your team at the weekend that maybe you were disappointed with from last weekend? Well I don't think I'm questioning I know I'm not questioning the fighting spirit of the team last weekend we made some mistakes within the game particularly the two goals which are obviously the clinical things that make us lose the game that we don't want to make again because at this level, especially in tough times people are very clinical that have taken those mistakes and making goals out of them and can we score more at the other end of the pitch it's the same, we had some opportunities last week where a tiny bit of misfortune but a misplaced pass a misplaced idea around the box and games generally are won and lost at both ends of the pitch in both boxes can we keep improving, can we play better we strive into all the time so the players just have to go into it with that determined positive mindset and any new injuries to report? No Thanks James, I'll go to Carl Markham at the Press Association Hi Frank, just on those players that work on fronters after the game of the weekend what's been the impact on Jerry and Anthony? Nothing as far as I know I've spoken to them both and nothing Are you worried that it could affect them though? or other players? Yeah of course I have to be like I said before as a coach, as a manager to manage the people when you have to understand situations and one part of it is they have to be robust and have to go again and focus on their job and focus on delivering but you also understand that with young lads sometimes it's not as simple as that so the players can all know that I'm there to help in those situations How much of a balance do you have to strike between telling the players that maybe what they're doing hasn't been good enough and also maintaining some sort of level of confidence and not going overboard the other way That's my job and there's always a balance so you have to tell them where you want them to be better for sure, you have to show them tell them what the solution is and what the way out of it is but also try and boost the confidence and that's the job of myself and the staff and the players themselves so this is not kids football there's a lot on it, it's a job so you have to find a way out of it so it can't all be nice, we have to find little things that we can improve but of course we need a confident group to try and get momentum and start getting better results so the balance is there for me to try and strike every day I suppose
