 Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the match preview, Everton vs Norwich City, 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon, Goodersham Park, Anthony Taylor the referee. There you go, our friend from VAR last time out against Spars. No friend of ours. And during the day, Andy. Andy, game that represents an opportunity for Everton to get back to back victories for the first time this season. Obviously Norwich City turned off a goodersham bottom of the league, decent football inside, but not in great form, so a good opportunity for us at the weekend. Yeah, obviously we can't take it too lightly and we can't make any assumptions, but you look at the fiction, what Norwich have done so far this season. You think to yourself, Everton, even at 80% of the best, should be able to get the result. But you want to see good Everton performance really, you want to see a couple of goals and see what's put the game to bed early. You want to see put Norwich under pressure because when teams are down at the bottom, you can't give them little windows of opportunity in games. I think they need to stamp their authority early in the game. Picking the right sides is going to be important and same as you're trying to, they're not going to be a team that's going to sit behind the ball as you play flow and attack on football, have pooch here on the counter. Do you might have a chance or two on the counter? Hopefully not. But we need to put the game to bed early, get a goal early and get the fans behind us. As Pad said on the podcast, the fans shouldn't come with an air of expectation. We need to get behind and make a good atmosphere if you will and put pressure on a team that has struggled really. Los nine out of the opening 12 games, only one two, one of them was an absolutely brilliant victory against Manchester City. We played, even though City dominated that game, at times Norwich played some great football and beat City's press quite a few times, with some lovely pass on football and took the goals really well, Pookie outstanding. So they got that in the locker to play that way. They were brilliant in the championship last season, absolutely fantastic. We've got some really good players. Wendy is a player I watched in the championship last season. He's a really good creator, gets between the lines, can receive it in tight areas and create for his team. Pookie is a one-touch finisher, a really good player to get a chance to put away. If you look at the stats this season, he scored chances that he wouldn't expect to have scored, XG if you will. He's put a chance away, so he's taken his opportunity as well. It's up to me to snog it and get him in. I've come on the last couple of weeks as a partnership then, hopefully we'll be able to snuff them out. Dems there, I'd say would be the two danger. Steeperman is a pretty good player on Al-Hinanda. I like Todd Cantwell as well. He plays also in the Takhamer field area. It's defensively they've got the problems. They've got two really good young fullbacks in Jamal Lewis and Max Arans who haven't fans of head, haven't linked with him before. Good young fullbacks who get up and down. But then you've got Ben Godfrey who's played defensively a field before. He's still finding his way. He's similar to John Stones when he was quite young. He's that type of centre off. I haven't really got a centre off next to him who's quite commander enough. He could lead them through a season. They are quite open at the back. Hopefully, with Charles, I think he can score 15, 16, 17, 18 this season. I think it's an opportunity for him. Hopefully he will be plays. I wouldn't rush bin our back, but hopefully he's fit to play. If he is fit to play, I'd like to see him play as well. Hopefully we'll go with our best attacking options and put the game to bed early. You've got Tim Krull in goal. He's a good goalkeeper for me. He likes a good game against Devon. He's put some good performances in. We do have to be wary of him. I do like Max Arans. He's been linked with Devon a couple of times. I think he's a player who we'll keep an eye on because he does like to get forward as well. From our perspective, it'll be the battle of the 4-3-1s. Probably, a lot of Evertonians want to see us playing 4-3-3. They showed last season, 4-3-1. I know people will be bored of Everton because of how stale it's got. But there is a way to play it when it is exciting. There is a lot of movement. I showed last season the championship. I'm not going to be able to show as much this season. But if you've got the right person now, and I think you saw it against West Down, when we did have the right person now in terms of fluid front three, a will be spraying passes in and you've got Sadibi in the side now as well. I think it's coming together. The formation, we'd all like to see maybe a 4-3-3 and maybe get more players in the field area, have people breaking from the field. But it's also working itself out at the moment. I don't know how sick it's played last week. Hopefully, because he came on, he was good against Southampton. Hopefully, he's back in. The formation's not really... I think it's still an issue in a sense. But I think it's with the right players. We can be our best, really, in a formation. Well, he scored this week for Nigeria. He did, yeah. And had an assist as well. He was captain, actually. For Southampton? Yeah, done. And the opportunity there for confidence-building came on against Southampton, like you say, and played the ball that we eventually saw from from Sadibi and done quite well. So, maybe the manager will go for him in the middle of Lo Guilfee, scored for Iceland and missed the penalty as well. And we've had... Cheng's team. We've had... Pucki, who scored for Finland as well as they qualified for the Euro. So, you know, players in this game who've done well for the country while they've been away in international duty. But I think just from our perspective, you know, obviously, the opening 12 games haven't gone the way we would have liked. But we won last time out, which was a big thing going into that international break with an away win. Got that, you know, that out the way because it was dragging on far too long. So, this opportunity, a home game against a team who's struggling bottom of the league, but a team who'd like to play 40, gives Everton an opportunity to, you know, a one win off fifth position. You know, that's how tight the league is. So, you know, if we can get these three points and be on 17 points on Saturday night, you know, that'll be a big thing, I think, for confidence-wise. It'll make them feel better about themselves. It puts a big gap between the bottom three, four teams and we can start looking up then. We're going into a very difficult period. We know all about that. But I think if Everton can go to Leicester with back-to-back wins in the Premier League, they feel better about themselves. And, you know, Leicester have got a tricky away game at Crystal Palace. I don't know about the tricky game this weekend anyway, as well themselves. So, we'll be going into that game if we can win this thing, we can get something from that. But that only works if we do our job. Now, not a genre team that's going to come down low, but I shouldn't imagine, because they haven't really done it this season. So, they're going to play open football and try and catch us. Set pieces, we've got to be worthy. They've got some tall players and Everton, you know, 50% of the goals we can see that almost have been for them. We don't allow many open-play shots. We haven't played many of the top teams yet. So, that's slightly skewed. But even so, we do separate. We are good at spreading shots. We have got a really good press, obviously, and Mason Allgate has done well on recent weeks. So, yeah, you know, we just got to live at their chances, really, obviously, as I said, Pukie can score from, you know, different types of goals from different angles. Just got to keep on up the game, really, and not get caught on the breakers, I think. It's going to be a game where we are committing them forward. And, you know, maybe that's why Schneider, maybe we should play just screening in front of the back four and not do anything else, really. And I think, you know, I don't really want to say expect this to him, but I sort of do, because I think this is a perfect game for Everton. I think a West Ham is going to be quite open for us, and, you know, if we can put them under pressure, and they don't obviously play through us in any way, then we will win the ball back home. We should create opportunities for ourselves, so... Listen, if you're not... if you're not confident about this game as an Evertonian, then I said, yes, there's probably not going to be many games you're confident about this game. No, I think we are, and I am, but it's... No, we're not talking about you, but just me and Evertonian. No, I think Everton play should be, because you know what the Premier League is like. You know, they beat Manchester City, and that's my different sort of game, but, you know, we should be winning this game. I mean, Norwich have lost 18 at the last 21 of Premier League away games, so we haven't travelled brilliantly. Obviously, Norwich away is always a tough game, because Carrow Road, for Everton especially, isn't great, you know. Are we good at any ground? Up to par. I mean, the property is that. West Ham away is not that bad. You know, when you look at it like that, but Norwich have kept a joint league one Premier League clean sheet this season, because basically they are open. They've come off playing the same way, and you have to take your hat off to them that they haven't tried to... They've still tried to go with the principles, and I think... It works for 1700, doesn't it? I think you've got to look... The basic for them is, due to web is the spot on direct, and I listened to an interview for them from this summer, and he basically said that they can't really afford to change the range, because a lot of players have got a bonus kickers where they went up a wage when they went to the Premier League, and by keeping those players, because obviously they expect to also get relegated this season, they weren't going to take on a load of players on Premier League wages, which they would have had to get rid of. So there's a talent gap, and I think they've got some really good young players, and they found some really good bargains in Wendy and Pukie last season, and I think they expect to go down. He even said that he's two years ahead of the plan from where they expected to be, because Daniel Fark in that first season didn't do great, and in the second season he surprised everyone, won the title, and I think they'll go down this season, but I don't think that's not part of the plan. I think they'd love to stay up, obviously, but I think they didn't take on all those players like Aston Villa who obviously don't make or break whether they stay up or they need to stay up, because they took on so many players, and they were Sheffield United. I think they'll probably stay up, but they didn't spend a load of money to try and compete in the Premier League, and that's the difference. I think they're built to go back down. If you look at Burnley, when Burnley came up, Dych didn't spend a lot of money the first time around, they got relegated, and he bounced back up, because they only bought championship players when they were in the Premier League. So the set-up's good to be a yo-yo club, really. I think Daniel Fark is a decent manager, and he'll go out as far as to say he should be managing time. Some people talk more about the Man City game for bigger jobs, and he's a good coach, but I think he should probably stay at Norwich. Playing the principles is good, and I think sometimes you need to skew them a tiny bit against City. They did have to sit back, because obviously Man City came up with so much pressure, and they did spring on the counter-attack, but I don't think they'll play like that against Devon. I think they'll play relatively and that'll leave gaps for us to exploit, and they'll have to take the chances in this game, and early, because the longer games go on, we don't score, then you know, the more... I mean, make a day a look at it as a game, you can win, because, you know, we're not in amazing form, we're quite strong and good at it. You know, but I feel the night to come, and I was convinced we'd be done, and he beat us, so I'm not... That's what I mean, that's the problem with me there, yeah. I'm confident for Saturday, of course I am, and I think the way they play makes me a bit more confident. I think we can beat anyone at home, and we generally do. We have got a very strong home record, but we'll have to be on our game. The minus 17 in the goals, so obviously it's yesterday, that open... Yeah, one goal, salt, and something like that, the 9, 0, so excuse that. But you're talking about Aston Villa there, and Aston Villa spent under 35 million or something in the summer. And they're off four points above Norwich. It takes time to knit a team together again. No, but I'm saying... So you're looking at the two sides of it there, aren't you? They play a similar way, they're fairly open as well. Aston Villa, I think might just stay up, because they've got a bit more quality about them, but you never know. Villa beat Norwich heavily at Carroll Road, didn't he, 5-1 or 5-2? Villa go with... We'll obviously get a bit away from Norwich, but when Jack Grealish plays, Villa tend to do better, because I think the record with them without Grealish is vastly different sometimes. But yeah, there's some good players on show on Saturday for Norwich in terms of... I like the follow-backs. Obviously my errands gets more the depressed, but it was a really good young left back. Ben Goffrey, as I say, he wants to watch, but he needs to learn a bit more. He needs to get his position and so on. Much like Holgate, really. Holgate's probably the under-reaster part of this game. He's on the ball, he's got two assistants, last three games, isn't he? So I think that he's added that bit of an element to pass off on the back, because he's not great in terms of on the ball. But from centre back, he looks much more assured and he can drag it into midfield, and that gives us a different element, Ben, because if he can carry it into midfield, then he causes someone to come out of the... It'll be a medium block for Norwich. For a medium block to come and cover his room from the field and it opens up space for us, and then we've got players to exploit that. And I hope we don't set them a hope and for a couple of goals as well, for the good and some faithful. For Moise Keyne. I think the woby, really, I think that's... Whenever you think Moise Keyne's ready or not, I don't think anyone's up for the start of the season thought he was going to score 20 goals this year. And I think in these games, these are the type of games where it's not going to be an overly physical side. It's a young side as well. I think he can come on with the woby behind him and I think the woby will put him in. All it takes is one goal to change him. Of course, the goal changes everything. And just finally, do you expect Anthony Gordon to be on the bench, or do you think he'll have... I don't know, because there'll be too many. Because then you'll have to fit Carvel Llew. It depends on who starts up front. I haven't got quite a lot of options. I know people probably think we need more options. I hope that does set me up front. But that's the problem. It's not great for Anthony Gordon, because you get that carrot and then it's taken away from you. But he's close. He's really close. I think over the Christmas period, you'll get at least a cut at the summer period. I'd like to see him go on loan in January, really, if we're not going to use him. I'll say it. There you go. Let us know what you think in the comments section below. Are you confident, if you're a never-thowning, that we can get back-to-back wins for the first time this season? If you're a Norwich fan, are you confident that you can come to Gouldersen and beat us? Let us know. Big thanks to Andy. Subscribe if you haven't. Get over to Peyton if you want more videos.
