 Welcome to Toffey TV, it is the Everton News Daily. Rafa Benitez spoke of his relief until last night as Everton ended the eight-match winless run with an injury-time victory over Arsenal at Godderson Park. Damari Grey's thunderbolt strike in the 93rd minute was enough to give the Blues a victory and a much-needed victory, our first win since beating Norwich back in September. It's been an awful run. Injuries have played the part. Let's be honest, some poor decisions from the manager didn't change the team to election, haven't helped either, but it was great to see the Blues turn at one round last night. It's put us up to 12th. You can start looking upwards, but also with a bit of relief below in a game against Crystal Palace away on Sunday. Everton can now go into that with more confidence and hopefully pick up more points this weekend. Benitez applauded the team, said the team showed fighting spirit and commitment and felt that the fans played a huge part in driving the team on. Always stayed with the team and even when the goals were being disallowed the fans were still there and they did play a huge part last night in that victory, so delighted to see the Blues win. Farad Masheri was not at the game despite being planning on being there, a change in quarantine rules reportedly the reason why the Everton majority shareholder was not at Gwldersen Park when he will be next there. Who knows, maybe less that on the 19th of December. Jerry Meane suffered a setback last night, returned to the start on 11, but lasted only 29 minutes before going off with a calf injury. He's just come off my hamstring injury, Raphael Benitez said, he don't know how serious it is at the moment. He said when you've been suffering with injuries, sometimes you pick up other injuries and that's what's happening with Meane and in this case. They've been assessed, they've been training really well, they were absolutely convinced he was a 100% fit to start the game. They'd even kept them back from games to make sure that he was fit and ready to go, so this was an unexpected injury. And Everton have got a real issue I think with Jerry Meane because he is, when he's fit in my opinion Everton's best defender, but you can't rely on him. When you start not being able to rely on someone you regard as your best defender, Everton are going to have to make a decision. He's only got 18 months left to think on his current contract. Do the Blues renew his contract and hope that he gets over this fitness worries. Or is it time to start looking for a more commandant centre back who is going to be available every week, which is what you kind of build your team on. Right now that isn't Jerry, but it's disappointing because like you say, when he's fit I feel like he is our best defender. So hopefully his injury won't keep him off for too long and he can get back because we have got a lot of games coming up and we will need them in that time. Luca Dean was left out of the squad last night, wasn't injured, wasn't in the 18. Ben Goffrey played the left back in his absence. And I guess it's up to him to get his head down and work hard and force his way back into the Everton squad. It's entirely up to him. We know when he's playing well he's one of the best left backs around but his form hasn't been great of late. Clearly something's gone on that we don't know about. So back to work, work hard and get back in the Everton side. Everton are planning to find two new board members. This is following the exit last week of Marcel Brands and of course Sarverish Milov who left a few weeks ago. Everton board currently made up of Bill Kenraig, Denise Barrabach and Dail and Grant Ingalls. That's all it's left at the moment. The board are also undertaking a strategic review of the footballing side. They're not expecting a radical overhaul, says the Liverpool Echo tonight, but they are looking at it. So it will be interesting to see certainly in terms of the board members who Everton bring on to the board. I personally hope it's external people. I hope it's people who come in from outside the football club. I would love Everton to go and get a real football person, someone who's got experience in working within football, understand exactly how it all works, someone that the board can learn from. I really hope it's that and the other person I would love to be someone who's worked in business and really got to prove and track record. Just to evidence that the club is trying to move forward and not just saying he's saying me, which is what it seems to have been, but there you go with the luck of the two new board members. Some interesting transfer news today that Everton are very interested in brush your months and glad back midfield player Dennis Sicaria. The 25-year-old is out of contract in the summer. He's been on Everton's list for quite a while. He's a rangy midfield player, I think he'd be a great addition. He's interested also Liverpool and Manchester United in the past. Obviously being out of contract makes him an exciting prospect for Everton, I guess, with no big transfer fee, but I think he'd be a really good addition for Everton's midfield, so hopefully there's something in that one. And Everton also today linked with Norwich City right back, Max Arans at Everton again, another one who's been continually linked with the under-21 England defender. But up to now the fee has always been way too high for what Everton wanted to pay, so he's playing in Norwich's face, even the Premier League, so I don't imagine his fee will have dropped, but that's a link that has been around today. That is it for the news daily. Make sure you check out the final where that's at now. It's more on Everton's victory over Arsenal.
