 Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the match preview legion knighted versus Everton. Trip to Ellund Road, the first time with a full house for a very, very long time. In fact, I was there the last time. 1-1 draw in the Premier League. In the Premier League, we did get beat in 2012 on the league. Don't like to talk about that. James Milner and Wayne Rooney. In the 1-1. Second year on the run, wasn't it? All those years ago. 17, 16, 17 years ago, something like that. I was there the year before when we scored the winner. It was a great night. Sunday wasn't it? Sunday evening. Yeah, tough game. Really, really, really tough game. The only thing that we might have in our favour going into it is the fact that it is the first Italian in the season. It can be up to the full rhythm, but it will be a really tough game. The crowd will be amazing because they will be like me last Saturday. It's great to get back in the stadium. It might be tempered a little bit having been spanked the old traffic last week, but at home they should have everything to be happy and grateful for to be back in the stadium. It will be a tough afternoon for Everton. It's often, as you said, with them being their first home game proper in the Premier League, I expect the atmosphere will be amazing. They're in that position, Leeds, at the moment where I know they've got beat last week 5-1, but their fans absolutely love BLC. They're all grateful for what he's done, they're grateful for what the team does. The team works hard every single week. It has a shape, it knows what it wants to do. It works hard and I think as a fan who's missed out on so many years in the Premier League, you can't ask any more than that. I don't think so. I don't think they'll look at last week's result with too much. They've got batter last season at Old Stafford, so it's part of the course. But coming to a game like Everton, they'll be thinking, let's get this with our season start. It's going to be very difficult for us. It is because I think things that we got away with last week at Southampton, because we're all going to have teams. The start of the season is always weird. We've seen that last season. Teams start sometimes great and that's the best they do all season. Teams start slowly and they build up. We've been very fortunate to have a win straight out the gate. This is our first away game and it is a tough task against a team that did finish above us last season in the Premier League. They still did it. It's going to be finished brilliantly. It's so strong at the end. It's going to be interesting, a really interesting early marker for us to have a greater way record last season. We did go to Leeds and win last season. It's the opposite side this week. We had it at home last week. We had the advantage of having the crowd. It galvanised the second half after playing poorly first half. That's going to be the real thing this week, to see how we deal with it on the flip side. Don't forget to play this week's Ultimate Fan.

Leeds United are still a team. I've got you get a team in with your pack. My team for this week is going to be Ferdil van Dijk. I've put him as the captain. I forgot to do this last week. Don't you make that mistake. Rico Henry from Bremford. One of my goal cards I've got was Reib Mahrez. He is straight in the side. Thomas Suchiek, another goal pack member I've got. He's in the team and I've given him the golden boot, so he can double your points. He's in there. Nicholas Pepe and Covertich from Chelsea, him as well. I've actually, because I had subscribed at the back end of last week, I had two goal packs. I've got James Rodriguez and Ollie Watkins both on the bench this week with Fairport from Leeds. Neither of them are going to play. I don't think this week and otherwise they've been in my team as well. So that is my team. Ultimate Fan is free. It's free from Apple.

We won there last week and it was one of our better performances actually. But you know what you're going to get with Leeds? They're so fit, they're so quick in transition. They're all a crowd, very vociferous crowd. They're on the road back a team to the hills. And Everton don't have an amazing record. They're on the road, do you think? But for the players, they went there a month last year. That'll be in your mind. Well, really, this year wasn't it. So, it's an early market. As much as the early games are markets. I mean sometimes, you know, the no markets, it's all really. Like you just said, they're just a game before you get the first few games out. The way to get up to speed and that's what I'm hoping with Leeds is that Saturday they're still not fully up to speed. But it'll be a really tough game and Everton are going to have to go with a plan. Not over commit because they can destroy it if you do that. But the one thing Beelters teams do when they've done it historically is they give you chances. And it's up to Everton to take them. And last season we were clinical, we did take them. And we're going to have to be clinical this week. I mean Manchester United have watched the first half last week and United had so many chances in the first half and ended up winning the game 5-1. But Leeds are always a threat and they'll be the same this week. So, for us, stick to the game plan. Not over commit. And I think we're a little bit quicker in transition this season just by the fact that we've got the likes of Damari Gray and Andrew Samson who can run in with Ritialis and Don so we will be quicker on the break. And that's what we're going to try and have to do is hit them on the counter attack. Last year we sat in, did we? And Jake Gull was actually a really good game last year. Just sat and just tried to pick the ball up and then we tried to hit them on the break. Got the goals in the first half and defended really well. Yeah, defended really well. Robin Olson needed a really big performance. It was a really tough game. You know, again, we saw what we had at home. We'll have to see the way Raffer, but he says he decides he's going to set us up away. You know, whether we are going to play counter attack or are we going to go there and match them and say, you know, we can do what we can do. Let's see what you've got. Don't say we can run the way. No, and that's it. That's the thing about Leeds is that they are the hardest-working team in the Premier League. You know, there's no two ways about that. Their players run more and work harder than anybody else and it's what got them to, you know, where they were last season. And it's where the... I think when we played with Gull at Elm Road, Carl-Own said that he found a nice sort of little antidote to that which was let them work at their dad and we on the edge of the box and then break. And it worked. It would be different this season, with the fans in the ground. It would just be, again, you're learning about your manager all the time. We learned a little bit about him last week and now, in the first Premier League game, we're going to be learning a little bit more about him. It's a tough ask, but like you've just said, the thing with everything is they've got goals in the front-lads. You know, both scored off the mark last week, the Tialysen and Don scored last week. And, you know, we had the core, I'd break him further forward. We didn't see that last season. He was more reserved, you know, and staying back and having to cover for the likes of Hammers and stuff. So there has been a little subtle change. It'll be interesting to see whether he, how he lines up, because obviously last week we saw Evan play 4-2-3-1 in the first half with Damari Gray in the 10. Damari had to change. There were half-time when we went 4-4-2 and we swarmed all over Southampton with Darren II. It'll be interesting whether he's done a track and whether John Philippe Gabamon comes into the thinking this week and we try to play it three. It's interesting in training. Well, he trained last Friday and he didn't, because he'd missed because of Ireland. So I say, like, I think this manager won't go all, we'll take a chance with you. Especially after a couple of years. Exactly what he's had and stuff. And Moise Keane will be back available as well. So there's another place on the bench for him. So Evan will have a couple of players back. I expect Calvin Phillips will start for Leeds because he had a really good euro and a brilliant for Leeds last season. So Keane will come in. They played 4-1-4-1 at Old Trafford last week. When obviously they had Rodrígue just off Banford and Raphine is a fantastic place. So we do have to watch Jack Harrison on the other side as well. Well, I think it'll be an open game. I really do. I think it'll be in 2-2 person. I think both teams will score a couple of goals because I just feel like Leeds are a really good side, but I think Evan are a good side. The decisions to be made isn't necessarily at the back, but we see Michael Keane in Hoggate last week and we don't want that, let's be honest. We need Jerry Bach. We need Jerry Bach. Ben Godfrey, we don't know, do we? I think he's going to miss out. I think he might miss out. So he does miss out. What would you do if Godfrey does miss out? Let's say he does. I just don't think he'd be back inside because of the protocol. Who do you play? Do you play Keane and Mina and sit on the edge of the box? I'd actually play Keane and Mina. Because I actually just think that Keane becomes a better defender with Mina because I think he just does what he needs to do and lets Mina deal with everything else. Do you think that's because maybe Evan's best way to get in the results is to sit on the edge of the box and almost play the low block because don't forget Leeds. What I saw Leeds last year, a lot of basketball games with them and they are fabulous at doing that. We don't want to get caught and push up because they can spring you so quickly. I don't think they're the team and they might say differently to me. I don't think they're the kind of team that carves you open. They are a team that works the ball and I think having someone like Mina who can deal with crosses and deal with knockdowns and that kind of thing, that's the kind of player I want. They were like a man city and they're going to carve you open all over the place. That's different because you need that little bit of patience. They'll test us, but I think we've seen last season that. We dealt with it last season by all digging in, getting a little bit of luck of course. But it's certainly a tough game bringing yeti men in will benefit us. Mina played there I think last year. My field would be interesting as well because obviously the make up of what we've seen in the midfield of last week in terms of in front of the Coray and Allen. That would be interesting to see how he starts those players. Does he start with Charleston essentially or does he continue with them on the left? Because ultimately last season when we went on away games with Charleston was using a very disciplined manner and it's something Brazil used quite a lot with them as well because they know he's disciplined out there and it'd be interesting to see whether they do that again with them and whether they keep grace centrally or whether they do bring that something like a baman into midfield to just have that little bit extra player and then maybe let the Coray go and be that player who joins in from that 8-8 role forward. You've got to watch with Leeds with Luke Eiling as well because he's obviously the right back and he flies forward so maybe giving him the Charleston to have to think about. You know that the Charleston will track him all the way back and Eiling I think has been excellent for Leeds he really has come through the leagues and proved that you don't have to go and pay £40 million from a European club to have a good, solid, dependable player who's a good player for them as well. So it's going to be a fascinating game. Again, how much you read into it, whatever happens, everything was a win. Does that mean Leeds are going to be lost too? Will he have a bad season now? We're having the Toulouse, doesn't mean that's it. Now we can't get now of course. We always say don't we after the first window on the international break, that's kind of when your season kicks in. But I think if everything could get something, just go there and get something, just keep momentum going because I think we can have a good season but Leeds are a good season. What do you think of the business? They've done because they've been like a lot of clubs haven't they? They spend it. Di bryll ffeer gyfan hynny, I think from Barcelona. The left-back he brought him in. I think they've looked at trying to bring two or three more in. Obviously the danger then for me is that it's two lad to brilliant last season. Patrick Bamford who... a lot of question marks over Bamford, started at Chelsea. He was a palace, didn't do anything on the loan. I think he was at Middlesbrough and he was a bit hot and cold and Leeds took him. And he done really well in the championship ..but people question whether he'll do it in the Premier League and he was brilliant. And then Rafina, who did go for it, I think it was Niso, Friends, I'm sorry. Gorymar of France and he was fabulous last season, he's a real threat. Jack Harrison, who have watched since MLS. Well to be fair, what they have done is they've done what I think a few clubs have done this summer. Is they've stuck with what they've got, you know, they've brought in Harrison, permanently. Jack Harrison's company. They've banned for the new contract and they've given Dallas the new contract as well. So they've, you know, they've consolidated what they've got. And the word that the lads have done the business for them is always good. I think the keeper and the manager are good keepers. So they've got, you know, they've got good plays, they've stuck with what they've got. And I think what's been really impressive with Leeds is, and it'll be interesting to see how they do this year. Because we saw it with, and I'm not putting Leeds, I'm not saying they're like Sheffield United. But what I mean is when Sheffield United came up, there wasn't too many changes with them. And they were, only for Covid, they might have gone into Europe. Covid came and it took, they were fifth at that time. Sheffield United. And they dropped, you know, dropped that and then the next season did be terrible. I'm not saying Leeds will be like that this season. I just mean Leeds have stuck with a plan over. And a bit like Wolves, let's use Wolves as an example. They've grown, haven't they? They've grown in the championship, got better and better, came to the Premier League. Excellent in the Premier League, took a lot of teams by surprise. Now can they follow up, and that's the question for them. But they work so hard and they all believe in what the manager wants them to do. There's no reason why they can't do that. I think it's absolutely imperative that everything get through the first 20 minutes. Oh, of course. You know, without conceding. Don't want the Leeds clad on you. Because they'll fly out the traps, the crowd will fly out the traps. And it's up to Everton too. You know, make sure that first 20 minutes that we don't do anything stupid. Use the games, man, Sheffield. Do what, you know, my Alex McCarty, Troll Dantam, was wasting time after 90 seconds on Saturday to try and break the game up. And it worked to a certain effect. And Everton, as much as as a home fan, if you're mad on your ffume, Everton needs to do that in the opening so when he kills the game, don't let them build up that head of steam. Because they are a great side of doing that. They really, when they get going, I think you said it right at the start, at the moment they're in that lovely sweet spot where everyone's pulling in the same direction. The manager, they all love them, they believe in them. They're made up to be back in the Premier League. They had a good season last season. It's all rolling nicely along. And I think for us, we've just got to go there, dig in, stay in the game and hit them on. I would try to hit them on the counter. It's like break the game up as much as possible. Be clever. You know, nothing's wrong, smash it into the corner flag for the opening 20. Don't give any encouragement because lead's pressed brilliantly. So if you're doing what Everton did last week against Feltampton, you know, we saw that we were in total control in the opening 20 minutes. One lapse of concentration from Michael Keane, they pressed bang one down. And I don't think you can give that a lead because how do you turn that round the railing road? So dig in, stay in the game. It might be pretty on all that, but it's about getting results. And I think we've got a man and see that understands the importance of those results. So that's going to be fascinating now. And I hope we get out with a positive result. Will we get something? Of course we hope we get something. Yeah, let us know what you think of this one. It is going to be tough. It's going to be brilliant as well for all the Blues going as well. They're going to have time with the Life Face Premier League game. There's the Wayfans back in Ellen Road in the Premier League for 17 years. It's the first time we've been into an away game since the Chelsea game, which we haven't say anything about.
