 Welcome to ToffeeTV, it is the Everton News Daily. Adrissa Garnagay has returned to Finch Farm after being called up to play for Senegal. Even though he was injured, he went away, he was checked out, they confirmed he had an injury to his knee, and he has been sent back to Finch Farm now. No idea how this will impact Everton in their next game and whether he will be ready for that game against West Ham, but he will not be available to play this weekend. So I suppose from that point to you, it's good. He's going to have another week's rest, obviously it's very clear that he can't play. He's going to have another week's rest and hopefully be back for the West Ham game, if not the Arsenal game with the latest, because clearly he's someone we need in that midfield and someone we're very reliant on when it comes to pressing the ball and getting amongst the opposition. Hopefully he'll be back as well as other players we are missing at the moment. Yannick Balassie, who's obviously on loan at Aston Villa at the moment, talk in the Birmingham Base Press at Aston Villa, want to keep him permanently next summer. Now this is without him kicking a ball yet, so we're waiting to see whether this stands up in eight months time or so, but it's talk that Steve Bruce wants to bring in all the players permanently that he signed on loan, but as I say, they haven't watched him play and hopefully it'll be a productive year for him at Aston Villa. I don't really see any future for him at Everton now, I think, his age and the injuries he suffered, just means that his time at Everton is now over and obviously we want to bring down the wage bill, we want to bring down the age of the squad as well. So I imagine he will play for Villa this year and then it'll be open whether he, if he has a good year, maybe he will decide to stay or maybe he'll decide to move on somewhere, you know, somewhere like Crystal Palace that he was hoping to move to, but if he has a good season with Villa and the ARP promoted, then maybe that will be enough for him to stay at Aston Villa. Next weekend sees the start of VAR trials in the Premier League. Everton have not been selected for these trials. Now, let me just tell you what these entail. Basically, the Premier League are looking at a command centre, very much like the Whale Cup. Now, what they're going to do, they're going to have the Saturday 3 o'clock games, which obviously Everton are part of next weekend, and they're going to see how that command centre copes with dealing with all those games at the same time. Now, let me just stress that these trials do not concern the referees in the games. The referees will not be linked up. No decisions made will have an effect on those games. It's not like the trials in the League Cup or the FA Cup where they're actually happening will affect the game. These trials are strictly to see how the command centres will cope with those decisions. So those people will be watching them, they will be dealing with them, but no real-time decisions will be made. So it's not a case of, well, why haven't we got it in this game and we haven't got it in another game? Nothing will affect the real games. It's just to see how that centre deals with all the issues at once, like the Whale Cup. Obviously in the Whale Cup, we only had the third group game that we had more than one game at a time, so it was every game was pretty much individual, whereas this will have five, I think it's five games going on at the same time, but that's pretty much the most you'd ever have in the Premier League anyway, and it's how they deal with all those decisions happening. So we'll have to wait and see. It's for the Premier League to bring in next season, I think it's going to be. This is not a case of it being rushed through because the standard of a fish eating is terrible in the Premier League. No, this is the start of the trials for next season, so I don't know whether later on the season they'll start reeling out real-time, real-world trials. We'll have to wait and see, but this is the first stage of it and Everton will not be involved in that. Everton have opened the Blue Base. Basically, it's the old St. Francis social club behind McDonald's and it has been opened as a centre for the elderly with dementia and social isolation. It's basically another community centre that Everton are involved with. On a match day, I think it's for the disabled fans who I think you went into a ballot and had to get a membership for it, but during the week it will be run as a community centre for the elderly with dementia and social isolation to go somewhere and just get involved in different things, whether it be bingo or just people seeing other people, friends. Again, magnificent for Everton. They've spent £800,000 opening up this new centre. Obviously, it's just round the corner from the free school, from the hub, which is helping transform Liverpool and helping these new places open for the community and leaving something behind, leaving a legacy, so that when Everton do eventually move to Bramleymore Dock there is something left behind. Obviously, with the plans for Gooderson Park as well and what that will entail, it means that Everton will always be part of the community in Elford. Again, just going to show that a football club is just more than 11 players playing on a Sunday or a Saturday afternoon. It's there for the benefit of the community all the time and it's absolutely fantastic. Marco Silva opened it up and he actually talked about the future and said he's here for the long-term at Everton and hopes that it is a long-term project that Everton Football Club and he has mentioned before that it's not just a football club on the pitch, it's a huge part of the community of it and obviously this plan has gone forward for a centre for mental illness as well. So it's really good. It shows that Everton Football Club that you can be really proud of them. Listen, me not always be proud of them on the pitch but we can always be proud of them off the pitch for things like this going forward. This is something that me and Baz are looking forward to getting involved in the future. There's a few projects that we've signed up for ourselves which will be interesting but hopefully we'll start to feature these centres and the people behind them on some shows going forward that hopefully we'll start next week looking at because it's a massive part of Everton that needs to be covered more and hopefully we'll be covering them more in the future. As the things that we've volunteered to do ourselves, yeah, they're going to be interesting and you'll hear more about them soon on Toffee TV but as I said, absolutely fantastic that we've opened this new blue hub, blue base. So fantastic. Everton have been linked to a couple of young players today. Luke Maddison played for Rochdale against Berry in the Chequetry Trophy. He played 75 minutes. He started as a sub. He came on after 15 minutes and got mad and matched it right back. Now he's 15 years of age but anyone who watched him was massively impressed by him and everyone thinks he's got a massive future in the game and Everton have been linked to them today as well as the likes of Manchester United and a lot of other North West clubs. A lot of people are saying this kid has got a huge future in the game. As I said, he's only 15 and he just finished his school holidays and came on and played and was, again, as I said, anyone who watched him said he was absolutely incredible so that is a name to look forward to in the future whether it be at Everton or elsewhere. Another player we've been linked with is George Bello. 16 year old, left side of the player. Made his debut last week for Atlanta United in the MLS, played against Wayne Rooney. And again, a lot of people are saying this kid has got a huge future as well. Starting at 16 is not the norm. So again, we could have a right back and a left back there sort of for the future. So two names we've been linked with today. Under 21s, checker trade trophy. Everton's first game will be against Bradford on September 25th. I think they were supposed to play this week but there was issues over the first game. It's now the 25th of September. And Henry on Yucuru, who's currently with Nigeria, has been included in Galatasaray's Champions League squad. Fantastic news, as is the fact that he's playing part of the Nigeria squad. All these things should help if they continue with him. Getting a work permit will see him finally, hopefully make his debut for Everton some point in the future. But they will all help with his work permit going forward. There you have it, that's been today's Everton news daily. Thanks for watching. I'll see you later.
