 Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the three talking points from Fulham 2, Everton 3 today, the Blues back to winning ways after losing their last three Premier League games, an important win today at Craven Cottage against a very, very spirited, full on side, a full on side that made Everton work for everything deep off from the game today, that being said the Blues second half display was really, really poor. Carlo Anciolotti, first thing I'm going to talk about was the formation Carlo Anciolotti made a change, you know, so far in his managerial shape we've seen him play 4-4-2, we've seen him play 4-3-3 and today we went with a 3-4-3 or a 3-5-2 whichever variation you're more comfortable with. Well, we've brought in, you know, we had a back three in Ben Goffrey, Jerry Meena, Michael Keane, I think the reason why Keane and Meena were in there was to cope with the threat of Alexander Mitrovich, but he didn't come until, you know, second to second half an hour gone of the game or whatever. We went with a back three in Alex Oboby and Luca Dina's, the wing backs with Alan Decore and Hames and then with Charles and Dominic Calvert-Lewin up front. And it's a formation I think Everton can play and I think while we're conceding so many goals and we've led to into the play in this, so, you know, some people might be saying, well, yeah, well, it's still happen, but I just think with the players we've got, we tried and we feel three with the likes of Sigarton and then Andre Gomez and it hasn't quite worked. But I feel as though the first half showed that Everton can get it right, the real advantages of it and where we're dangerous. The second half showed that if you don't get it right and you drop deep, then you can't have Hames Rodriguez in the midfield with Alan Decore. You need another one. You can get in and break the player and you also need a Charles and then closer to Dominic Calvert-Lewin. And it's imperative that when you're playing it, your wing backs offer you the width. They did it in the first half. They didn't do it anywhere near the same level in the second half and I'm not sure whether that was a conscious thing, that the manager's changed slightly the attacking outlet for the second half or whether the players have just naturally dropped into a five. But I just feel as though that formation that Everton played today can be successful for us, but obviously it's something that you're after. It has to be flexible as well. You have to be able to make the changes if need be. But it's good that the manager's tried something different. Listen, we've won the game so we might say that we played something different on its way. We've got the three points and we'll go on to Leeds next week and Leeds play three at the back so we might match them up or whatever. But I just thought it was interesting that he's played it today. Personally, I just wonder whether it might be a better formation if it's one of Michael Keane or Jerry Mina and then you've got Mason Holgate and Ben Goffrey, the side, you've got the legs to recover. Also, you can distribute the ball a little bit better. So I just wonder if that would be a better fifth for a back three. And also a lot of people saying maybe Olson is a better fit than Pickford at the moment, who knows. But it was just interesting the fact that we did change the formation today and it's good to see that flexibility. It didn't really work second half and we'd have to look at that, but I just thought it was interesting from the game. One of the players we mentioned there, Alexander Oboby, played at right wing back today and I thought he did very well. I thought particularly the first half is attack and play was excellent, put three or four fantastic crosses in. There's a real threat down that right hand side for us, done brilliantly for the second goal. Ghost done passed three players as if they weren't there and carried the ball. Even in the second half, when he wasn't as effective, at times he got us up the pitch by just travelling with the ball. He's comfortable on the ball and I just thought he did very well for us today and a lot of people don't like him, don't think he's good enough. Wherever, that's fine, but I feel as though there's times you have to praise when someone deserves it. I thought he did really well today and maybe, just maybe, if Everton are going to stick with this kind of formation, maybe he's the best one at the moment to play that role. Seamus Coleman could quite easily play it as well, but it's good that Oboby's played there and has had a good game. He's certainly showed is the good point of his game, travelling with the ball, that he can be effective. So, I thought he did really well today at right wing back. Finally, I'm going to finish with Richard Charleson, who was back in the Everton side today after missing the last three games. It's felt ages since he played for us. Obviously, the man that took him off with 20 minutes to go was a 15 minutes to go. He wasn't best pleased, but he's been away to Brazil, travelled, he's played two games there. And he's travelled, all the travelling come back. But I thought he was brilliant today, particularly again in the first half, he was a real threat. Second half, not so much, we didn't really get him into the game. But he showed in the opening 48 seconds the difference in him and the people who've had the shit over on that left hand side. The ball come through and he drove at the full on defence, cut it back and we're winning 1-0. And he does that brilliantly. He'd done it two or three times today. He could have had a couple of goals on another day. He mis-kicked one that was cut back to him in the first half. I think it was Luca Dean cut it back to him, but they made it 4-1. He totally mis-kicked it. He had another one at the start of the second half that he didn't connect cleanly with. But he's a real threat. He's forced a save out of Arriola. He just links the place so well. He works so hard defensively. He's just absolutely brilliant and he's developing all the time. And what it does is it gives you that real, you look at it and go, how do we replace him? If he moves on, how do we replace him? Or if he's not in the team, how do we put that same type of player into the side? Because we've seen today that when he's in the team and we're attacking, we're a totally different side. We look like we've got goals in us everywhere. And yet when he hasn't been there, we've looked struggling for ideas or struggling for that little bit of magic like he proved in the opening 48 seconds. So, it's fantastic to have him back. And he will be key for us going forward. There's no doubt about it. But it is also something that the manager and Marcel Brans, well, he's still here, if you believe in the reports, needs to look at who can we bring in? Who can be almost a like for a child? And who can give us that when he isn't there? Or if we need to move him around? Because it's a real, it is night and day when he's in the team and when he isn't in the team. There are attacking options, but there you go. There you go. There are my three talking points from Everton's perspective. If any follow fans have been watching this just from an Everton perspective, we've won the game 3-2 today. Delighted that we've won the game not so much with the performance. That's for another day maybe, but Everton won the game today 3-2. Make sure you subscribe, give the video a thumbs up. And if you want more videos, join us on Patreon.
