 Welcome to Toffy TV, this is the match preview of Everton vs Liverpool, the Major side derby. It feels far too early for a Major side derby this season. Everton obviously waiting for that first win. It's a weird one this isn't it because we're literally sitting here, it's Thursday the transfer window is still open and we obviously don't know what players we're going to be bringing in and everything just feels completely preoccupied. Pre-occupied with that and it has done for the whole of the season so far and I really haven't given this game a minute's thought. Maybe the season will feel alive when Saturday comes at 12.30 but it just doesn't feel like there's anything on it yet, it's very very strange. Yeah there is isn't it, the transfer window does take up a lot of your time especially when you need players in and you're waiting for try-ins to come in and having the season running concurrently that is difficult because you try and get off of the game and let's be honest we needed a little bit longer than most teams this summer to just recuperate after what was an incredibly stressful season last season but it's come around quickly and now the derby's here and you're right it's not really one I've given any thought to it's you know the next game and like you say once this window shuts today tonight you know probably tomorrow you start thinking about the match then and then obviously it's early Saturday so we'll see how we go with it. Yeah I mean obviously we're yet to get a win and we're obviously we're off the back of three draws and obviously a win in the Carabao Cup against Fleetwood so we look like we're progressing but Liverpool strain season so far for them I know they've just had back to back wins obviously very different wins and won in some more controversial fashion but they don't look like they've got going yet this season they were defeated Manchester United and a couple of draws as well and things don't seem fully settled down for them and I know they've got a lot of injuries and obviously the effect of losing Marnay has sort of we've seen that straight away and I don't think they've quite you know from the mean out being golden last few games for them but it's been a strange start for them hasn't it you know because obviously Manchester City started well Arsenal started really well but Liverpool have been so so so so far whereas everyone thought think that everyone thought that they were just going to based off the traps. Yeah it is difficult isn't it I mean the Manchester United defeat was the one wasn't it where people were a little bit surprised by, I was surprised by to be honest like those minutes United and they haven't quite clicked though they've had some injuries and they haven't quite got going but we know they're still at the top side they will keep you know fire up at some stage ..fair up at some stage and maybe they have now. Maybe they've almost game, you know, was the one and obviously got a very, very lego against Newcastle to win that game as well. So they've got two wins on the spin and they'll make them feel like they're in a better place, but it doesn't change anything, you know, if they wouldn't have won. The last two, we'd still be saying they're a top shot, they've got good players and they can hear you and nothing's really changed with that. They haven't come flying out as good as the others, but then maybe they'll have a strong finish. Yeah, you know, they'll be up there regardless, going for the league, so we know that it is a difficult game for us. Yeah, I mean, they can be my own injuries and I appreciate that, but, you know, last night they still had Fominio in the middle of the park, Salah, Fominio, Lewis Diaz is the front three, you know, they've got pretty much their first choice back four, maybe Gomez isn't first choice, and the one who's sort of come in, who's looked bright for them so far, is Harvey Elliott, who's played in a few games for them this season. So from that point of view, it's not like they're down to the bare bones, they've still got a very strong team, you know, Jordan Henderson, nothing came off with an injury last night, so he'll probably miss the game, but they're not, you know, I just, I don't know whether it's the, just the energy levels aren't quite there, or just having that player who can put the ball in the back of the net, like man, I did, and obviously Nunes has been, obviously he's been suspended, he'll be back on Saturday and maybe having him back will give him the focal point, but Fominio's been in really good form. Let's just look at Fominio's numbers, he's played four, three goals, three assists, key passes 1.8 and 2.8 shots per game, so obviously he's having a bit of a resurgence after becoming more of a squad player last season, I think he needs to be for it, and he is a good player because he always manages to find those pockets of space and I think, as he's got a little bit of, he's always been somebody who drops off, obviously, and works with the midfielder, and I think that's when he's played against them, I think we've always found them difficult to pick up, the way he drops off into midfield becomes an extra man, and you know, I think, you know, there's been times when we've played against them and they've had three midfields and we've had two, and then he drops in, and it becomes four against two, and you've got absolutely no chance, and do you think that will dictate how we play, Satti, because we've seen it on Tuesday go four, three, three in three midfields, and do you think we'll keep that three midfield because, just because of how strong they are in there? I would, I'd keep three midfield, I think, you try to go two in midfield against Liverpool, they have your off, you know, it's all very well-shamed, we'd have three centre backs, and then it'd be a back five at times, but there's still five pockets of space within that back five, so I would rather have it than play with three midfield players, and if needs be, you can go to a four or five one at times, but, you know, four, three, three, you want it because you want to be able to match him up in midfield, and then make sure that you're causing the full backs a little bit of an issue, both the very attack on full backs, and the spaces in particularly, Trent Alexander Arnall's side, there's a lot of spacing behind him, can you exploit it, that's what Evan will be looking to do, But yeah, I would most definitely have played three midfield, obviously, Evan, whether it's a kind of game that's fitting enough to play, that'd be a consideration for me to have him in there with obviously, with Omnana and with Ewobe, because them two are capable of covering a lot of ground, and we know that that's kind of a game anyway, so that will be the option... ..even if he was 65, 70 minutes in it and then you've got options on the bench then whether it be Tron, David Shore or James Garne or if.. ..him's will to be options for Frank Lamperd on the bench show. A beth mwy'n deffinall a pleidwareth ei mae ffyldur. Let's just have a look at the side, the Liverpool side from the team that beat Newcastle. Mae'r Maidewb i'w sefydlu yn fforddd hynny fod yn gwneud. Mae'r Nafrwnt Ryddi hyn yn yn ddyfyn i'n gweithio gyrdd.

Ond drwy gael yn fawr, mae'r bener nifer o'r b Viewers at y最 ni. Mae'n ddau rhagwyr am gael teimlo cyd-wyr arnyn nhw, ac nid gynnwys.

Ond mae'n fath o'n ddweud yma ac mae, y gallwn eu masafodol, mae'n ddweud gan y saty? E, mae'n gweld, mae'n meddwl am llwg yn yr ystafell i fynd i ddweud o fynd i chi, Diolch yn rhoi, nawr, gefn todays. leadership was no questions about that. You've been touched on for me now, for me now a lot of times. It's such an intelligent player and he's part of the front three man I am a fabulous, and obviously Diogel Deotar is still injured at the moment. He's coming and done incredibly well for Mawls. He's being brilliant, so much so that for me now, they drop down to the bench and Felly we know how much they can hit you in that final third and normally I think Henderson will be a big miss for that. Personally Liverpool fans might tell me different but certainly I can remember the goodness in Dabi and he was absolutely brilliant last season in that obviously he scored early on but he was brilliant in that dictating the play and pressing and everything. And organising him and when they were wobbling a little bit of 2-1 he settled everything down in Van Dijk and he ended up obviously spanking us in the end. So I think he will be a bit of a miss for them but it's up to us to keep it straight. Well let's just look at our team from Tuesday. There you go. So obviously we went for a back four Cody and Tarkowski and we had three in the midfield obviously Tom Davis on that and the Wobby and then we had the three sort of up front. Now we're expecting Mal Pie to come in after this to play up front so obviously he should have played up front on Tuesday so we're expecting him. I'd imagine Dwight MacNeill might drop to the bench and then it might be a case of, as you just mentioned here, if it's a Garnaghais fit which I don't know whether he will be on or whether he will stick with Tom Davis in there. I think Garnag may well play for an hour and then Tom Davis would be penciled in to go. Depends, I don't know what his levels are. He's been training with PSG and all of that so he'll be ready. He's the type of player that can put in and sit and just do his job but I would definitely, whatever happens, I think Mal Pie will start and I would definitely. And it's hugely important isn't it? I was looking at the goal again that we can see it against Leeds and it comes from Jordan Pickford kicking a goal kick into their centre backs who just headed back without anyone being near them. And that started two times later I think it was in the back of the net and that shows you just in the basic form the importance of having someone up front to get into the centre backs will not let them have an easy ride, will not let them settle. So for him to make his debut in the Mayside Derby, that would be an interesting one and obviously to get off to a great start. It could be a hero forever if he was to score in a game that I haven't won but it's going to be interesting because there's still some little variables that will come out in the rest of the day. Big game for Anthony Gordon as well, a lot of talk about him, obviously scored two in two now, the wind is going to short, he's still an everton player, that's what Frank Lampard wanted all along. And again all eyes will be on him on Saturday afternoon and a big opportunity because there's still a hangover from last year at the Ramfield when he should have had a penalty. But Liverpool fans have clearly held that against them or he's become a bit of a high figure for them but big opportunity for him as well to show what he's all about come Saturday afternoon. Absolutely, the Ramfield game he was very good and he should have had a penalty, there's no question about it. And he can exploit that space behind Trent Alexander Han. He gave him a tough game at the Ramfield, he really did. There's one in the first half he should have had a foul for as well where he was shoved over. So I think he can really give Trent Alexander Han something to worry about at the weekend by running arm and running into that space and he does work really hard. But it's a great opportunity for him isn't it? He's a Dabi, packed out of gooders and electric atmosphere. All eyes are being on him the last few weeks, Chelsea wanting him. He's scored in the last couple of games. Great, great chance for him to get himself into the Dabi folklore as a scoutser and get himself a goal and maybe put a few million quid on his head as well in terms of his value. Because he has started, the last couple of games he's been very good. Leeds he was excellent at in terms of just his all-round play intelligence of getting his head up and using the right pass. And you have to do that against top size like Liverpool, you've got to play with your head. I hope you don't get yourself booked, he's picked up a couple of stupid bookings already this season. Don't get involved in any of that. Same for all the players that though isn't it? No it is, but I mean don't get me wrong. In the main, they haven't been battles of late to Dabi's, they've changed. No but what I mean, what I mean by, give yourself, don't put yourself in a position where you can't play enough of the game. That's what I mean by that as well is save one. No but what I mean by that is later on in the game, when the game gets stretched and maybe they bring on a couple of subs and we don't and you need to knock someone off the ball who's going through or something. So if you make sure that if you're going to be booked, do it for something sensible that is needed by the team, not for something like what Tom Davis did on Tuesday night or getting involved like throwing the ball. Yeah or something or whatever. Do it for something that the team might need later on in the game where it's the difference between you knowing that you've got to do something, you might be sent off because you're on a yellow and then your team goes down to 10 men. If you're going to be honest, if you're going to do it, if you need to take someone out to stop them breaking or something, then that's what you need that yellow card for. So yeah, big, big, big game ever and obviously we really, really do need a win and as I said, I don't feel the pressure going into this game. I just think it's an opportunity for the 17, the window will be shut. You know, if you're going to get it, your first win of the season, you might as well do it against Liverpool on the main side. You might as well, so there you go. You're not doing any stats. There's no stats for this game. No stats matters. It's the 241st Messi side. Why did you even say that? That's tainted with something. And part 12 it kicks off. Did you only start to get it? You don't want to get out of bed, do you? Yeah, there's one. Go on, because I was asked this before. OK. The penultime of Dabi, go to some part. If we stay up. Will. But yeah, I mean that in itself and you think there could only be two, this and one more go to some in the Premier League. That doesn't even bother me. No, but for a lot of people it will because we've seen. We've only ever known home Dabi's in that place. So it is that when you look at it and it's seen some tremendous games and some horrific games as well. A lot of horrific games. Let's make this a terrific one. Go on. There you go. There is no your thoughts in the comments. You're excited. Are you ready? Are you ready? I reckon we can do this. I genuinely think we can do this. This might, what I would say is, even though they're a fantastic team and we'll be up there. This might be a decent time to play them just before they really have. Got everyone back and they've caught fire. So. There you go. Let us know your thoughts in the comments on this one. We are, we're going back to do Transfittedland. I know. If you're watching this on Friday, you already know what's going on. You already know what's going on. So there you go. Thanks for watching. Give this video a like, subscribe if you haven't already.
