 Welcome to Toffy TV it is. The player ratings. Everton have been beaten 2-1 by Wolves in a game. Nothing really surprised me in the game at all. Very, very poor display. I've just listened to Frank Lampard there and he's in Roberto Martinez territory in his view of the game. He asked me. We were dros. Absolutely dros. Listen, I don't think we deserve to lose the game because I don't think they were that good either. But we've been beaten by the team that were bottom of the league. I go to St Park on Boxing Day and we've done it in a manner which, when your players are passing the ball round, the halfway line in the third minute of added on time. It's embarrassing. That's the embarrassing part. Forget performances or the fact that players can't pass it or players can't hit the target. Or when they do hit the target it's like a back pass. That was embarrassing. An awful defeat. I'll go through player by player. Anyone listen to my aftermatch reaction from the God of the Street will know. I'm quite calm about the situation because I think the situation is what it is. We are an absolutely dreadful football team that at the moment will be relegated because I honestly don't think there's a waste team in the league. There's never mind three other waste teams. We picked up straight from where we left off before the break. The bang average set of players. That's all there is really. That's all it comes down to. That it's a bang average set of footballers who simply aren't good enough and the players haven't brought into replay. The simple fact is, over the last three years, Everton have got with equality in replacing them with absolute rocks and that's just the reality of the situation. That's not the players' faults. The players have been bought. I've jumped at the opportunity to sign for a club like Everton because why wouldn't you? We pay good wages. We're just about to give big contracts to Anthony Gordon and Awobi. I mean, if someone explains that to me, I'll never know. And our standards are so low that when people have half a decent game, you see fans now going, oh, they did all right or they tried. We're absolutely rubbish. People have got to own that now. People have got to own that this football club doesn't want to win and doesn't have high standards because if it had high standards, it wouldn't accept what we've been through, what we went through last season and what we're going through this season. And the people who don't have high standards have been at the club for years and years and years. And I feel a little bit sorry for Frank Llanparg because the team he's been given is awful. That's not to say he's not to blame. The football we play is not befitting or trying plays not befitting the plays we have. This passing around like we're a Pep Guard the older team is nonsense if you ask me. We don't play it forward. It's always played backwards. Always. We don't take chances. We don't try and play anything really if I'm honest. So it's just very, very poor. So I'll get into it. I'll get into the plays. I'll get put a bit more meat on the bone. Jordan Pickford kick. Do you know what I went? I just had a little luck then just to check on certainly the first goal. And I don't think there's anything he could do about that. But his kicking was dreadful today from the start. Again, just poor kicking. Just kicking it either too short or too... I mean he had a couple but I don't think there's anything he could have done with that to go realistically. Certainly not the first goal. But yeah, I thought his kicking was poor today and that sets the tone if you keep his kickings poor. I'll give him a six. Nathan Patterson. I think Nathan Patterson. I don't know whether he was a fault for the first goal but he certainly switched off. There corner taker has scored the goal eventually. And someone has to have an eye on that player and he has switched off for that goal. Let the ball go over his head. He gives the ball away far too many times. Go for it, he's all right. But I think he certainly switched off for the goal. Sometimes his touches can be quite loose. I've given him a five. He did have a couple of moments where he got one in the second half. A big interception to stop them getting through. I've given him a five anyway. Michelenco. Defensively OK. Going forward. I feel, to be honest, going forward. I'm baffled by the positioning today. In the first half, McNeill is coming inside all the time. And not really giving Michelenco a pass or not overlapping. And that has to come from the manager. Michelenco is a solid defender. He's not much else, I must admit. But I don't get how you can... It's not like he's not any of our last two left backs. He's got confidence on the ball. He's not like this amazing attack on the left back. People seem to run away from him. I don't get that at all. When we do that, it's just mad. I've given him a six anyway. That really annoys me. That comes from the manager. That comes from how we set up as a team. Having the wingers set up like they're inside forwards. When we need wingers. So I've given him a six anyway. I mean it, obviously got the goal. Obviously went off injured. I don't know whether it's anything serious. It could just be cramp for all we know. It could have been. They might have decided that's what they were going to do. I thought he was doing all right to be honest. I thought nice little tussle with Costa. I don't think, I thought he was fine. I thought both centre arcs most of the time were just fine. They just did the job. I didn't think they were up against much if I'm honest. I thought Wolves were very, very poor. And how he didn't put them to the saw. They'll never know. They went for a second half. I'll give them that. The manager went for it in the subs at 1-1. He understood the importance of a win. And went for it quite early at 1-1. But I thought Yery was fine. Obviously he's gone off injured again. So just one of those things, isn't it? Yeah, it is just one of those things. But it always seems to be one of those things with Yery, doesn't it? It always seems to happen all the time with Yery Mina. And there's very little you can do about it, to be honest. But we know that with him. We know he's going to go out the team. He's going to come in and play and he'll go out the team anyway. So I don't know if it's too bad. Godfrey obviously came in. We'll talk about him in a moment. I'm just sorry. My computer has just said that it's going to update itself. Don't update yourself, computer. I'm trying to make sure it doesn't update itself. So if I just go off suddenly, it's because my computer has just decided that it's going to update itself. I'm frantically trying to figure out how to stop that from happening. So you've got the goal. Go to score from a set piece. We did score from a set piece for the first time we scored directly from a corner anyway. I know we scored from a set piece at Southampton for Conoco, but it was good that we scored a set piece. It shows that we are maybe improving in that area. We didn't have a lot more set pieces after that unfortunately. So we had a free kick in the second half, but not too many set pieces because we simply don't get up the pitch. But I've given Yeri a six as well. Tarkowski gave him a six as well. He was fine. In fact, he had far too much of the ball, if I'm honest. He had far too much of the ball. The amount of time our centre-backs have the ball is frightening. Again, it reminds me of having Mark Nezzar's area. They just have the ball. We give them that all the time. Forever going backwards. Forever going backwards. It's just so frustrating to watch. You want your team to go forward, and I know we didn't have a big player today up front. I know we didn't have when you had Mopai, but surely you've got to be able to play in other ways. This is something I've said regularly about bringing in Mopai. We'll talk about Mopai in a minute, but bringing in Mopai, I thought I'm going to call him and doing it. If your centre-back gets the ball and he's got not and on, should them be able to look into the channels or look at to aim to the centre-forward for them to do something. All we do is pass it along the back line. To be honest, as I said, Tarkowski and Jenny Mina probably had the ball far too much today, if I'm honest. I've given him a six. Defensively, I thought he was fine, to be honest, but there you go. Garnet. I've given Garnet a five. To be honest, again, it's weird, because I think we tried to play, we did try and play a bit higher today, but he just didn't look on it at all. He just didn't look on it. So it was a difficult one, because what you do, I know he's not in there to make chances or score goals, but he just wasn't on it. He wasn't like breaking up the play or getting his going even. He just... he was again... I mean, it's very easy to say, well, first game back in all that, but for someone like Garnet who played in the World Cup, he's played games, he didn't stop. He had a couple of weeks off, so... I've given him a five. I didn't think he was up to much. I'll be honest, I thought the whole midfield was a mess today. The whole midfield was just... felt like at times it was playing a different game to the rest of the team. And I thought he was a five. Oh, garnet, I've given him a four. Looks lost. Looks lost in that midfield. He's settled down a little bit in the second half, but he looks lost. He looks like... again, he looks like he's playing in a different team. When he gets the ball, he's far too slow in possession. He's far too slow in possession. He doesn't really get us going forward. He doesn't pick up the ball and sort of move us forward. And I know he's a good player, he is a rough diamond. He is someone who's going to take a while. He is someone who's that way you're going to have to polish into a good player. Cos he is a good player. He's got the makings of a good player. And I'm not like saying he's terrible, but he does look at times like he's playing his own little game at his own pace. And people just get on him and just... And he's great when he's doing all the little slack, when he's doing the sliding tackles. But today I thought he was very poor. Very, very poor. So I've given him a four. Awobi! Didn't do anything. Didn't do anything. Didn't do anything. Didn't effect the game. And pick up the ball and really make chances happen. You know when you're looking for a proper number eight or a number 10 say, listen Awobi's not being alright this season. I don't think he's being amazing because his performances have gone off in the last few... Before... Before the break. He's been okay. He's still got the most assistant stuff for us. Because we don't have anyone else who makes assists. But in that area I want somebody to pick up the ball and move us forward. Get the ball to the feet and move us forward. Or somebody who can see the passes all the time and get us going and get people round the back. I still don't think Awobi's that player. Give him a five today. I thought he was bang average today. Didn't get... We just... We need a player who can grab a game by the scruff of the neck and he can't. So I'm afraid to say Awobi can't do that. So give him a five. I just thought Armid Fear was just poor. Or just doesn't know what it's doing. Doesn't really have an idea. Doesn't really have a plan. And I include the two wide man in that at all. I mean the two wide man. And we want the two wide man. Dwight Mach Neil. Right. I will say it again. It is nothing personal. But you are not an Everton player. You are not an Everton player. You look terrified every time you get the ball. You... I feel... At times... I feel sorry for him. Because he gets played in such weird position that... If you played Dwight Mach Neil playing on the left and telling to get chalk on his boots he is not somebody who has the ability to do what the manager wants him to do. And I feel sorry for him because of that. I feel sorry for him because he hasn't got the ability. He's got no pace and he's the most one-footed player I've ever seen. He's got no pace and he's the most one-footed player I've ever seen in my life. And whoever sanctioned that signing I will repeat. Needs sacking. And I don't care who I upset by when I say that. I honestly do not care who I upset. He needs sacking. Because you bought a player who does not have the ability to go past people. You bought a player who does not have the ability to score. You bought a player who does not have the ability to create chances on a regular occurrence, on consistency. Yes, you got an assist today and it's a decent corner. Thank you very much, that's great. But you are playing for a football team for 90 minutes. People bandy about these things of like he's in the team to do this and he's in the team to do that and he's in the team because he's got... He'll make his set piece as a great. So, you are in the team to have an effect on the side for 90 minutes. For 90 minutes. Far too many people who like certain footballers and want to see certain footballers do well go, oh yeah, but we bought them because of this and we bought them because of that and we bought them because you know what last season he created X amount of chances. No, no, you buy footballers because they have an effect. Right? They have an effect on the game for 90 minutes and he does not have an effect on the game and whoever sanctioned the signing of Dwight McNeill needs to go away and work for somebody else because those kind of signings are whatever in our way we are this season and I feel sorry for him as a footballer, I feel sorry for him as a lad because he just simply should not be playing for this evident team and I've said this all season and I've been consistent about it and you know what, one day he might magically become good. It does happen, but for this evident team we cannot afford it we cannot afford footballers to just be not even okay we cannot afford it and we have got lots of them we have got lots of them at this football club and we have had them from the past and we have got rid of the people who signed this one we bought this summer and he is not good enough and that's nothing personal that's nothing about the lad that is nothing it's about the people who bought him because last season he was dreadful they didn't do anything there might be some numbers out there that suggest he created X amount of chances it doesn't matter if you play him then you play him where he created the chances and it doesn't matter if if Dominic Arvill is not playing or whatever you can't afford to make mistakes and we've made a mistake I've given him a four I've given him one extra because he's on an assist because I'm trying to be nice because it's Christmas and the Gordon it's not in the game it's not in the game it's if you slide in Tattles to put the ball out second half one fantastic cross first time ball Nail I got there before Mopi did because Mopi wasn't switched on but a great ball that is apart from one chance that he should've absolutely buried him to make it absolutely buried the ball came to him and for me you stay on your left side yn ysgrifennu, ond bynnwch yn gollwch gan мыf, a gydnodd y gael gael.

He must have looked at the Domenar Carvon Llywyn on seeing his injury record. I'll be playing for Evan nearly every week. Nearly every week and then I'll go out the team and I'll just wait for the Domenar Carvon Llywyn to get injured again. Rhyw hwn ni'n brin o ymdŵr yw'r Cymru? Rondon o'r Cymru? Oed pan mae'n rondon?

I just don't. He's a third choice striker when you want something else. Not a back-up striker when you want. We would be better having someone like Chris Wood or the big Welsh fella at Beaumuth and they're dros. They are dros. And again it's not personal. They're just not very good. They're just not very good and too many people are scared to say this. Too many. I just am sick. I'm sick of toxic positivity. If that's a real. I'm sick of it. I'm sick of fans telling me that it's all going to be all right and certain players are all going to be okay and you're not allowed to be negative and you're not allowed to say it as it is. Those players are not good enough for evidence. They're just not. Do you know we used to laugh at people like Mitch Ward and Carl Tyler? These are the equivalents. These are the equivalents of those players that we signed in the 90s. Mitch Ward if you're not old enough and you've heard of the name Mitch Ward and Carl Tyler and people laugh. Right? They're the new equivalents. They are genuinely the new equivalents. They're absolutely terrible. They're just terrible and it's mad. It's mad that people... It's mad that like Cusley Way of Evidence shits. It's mad. I just don't get it. I just don't get it. It's like you're not allowed to tell the truth about how bad this evidence team are. Oh you can't say that. You can't say that. You can't say that. You can't say he's rubbish or he's whatever. They're absolutely rubbish and this is where we are now. This is where we are and I'm sick of it. That's what it's called. Toxic positivity. It's these players you go oh you're not allowed to say things anymore. Like I know that what the world's like now. I know we're not allowed to... A lot of people are not allowed to say negative things about things because they're upset people. I get that. I do get that. There's a reason for that but not being able to say football is a crap is nonsense. These players are not good enough for Everton Football Club. If you think they're good enough for Everton Football Club then then what have we become as a football club? What have we become? Mi'ch helma dda'r scored goals. Mi'ch helma dda'r scored important goals. So don't give me that. But what have we become as a football club if we're accepting these players? I will never accept. Never ever accept. Dw i ma'ch niel a niel maw pai is good signings. I will never ever accept it. Never. I've accepted that they're Everton players but I'm never accepting that they are good signings because they're not. They are absolutely not good signings. I'm not having all this shite crowded niel today. I do not care. I do not care. It's got nothing to do with the crowd. It's got nothing to do with the crowd. By the way, we're the people who kept the club up last season so we're only hearing this shite about the crowd did niel today. Do you know what doesn't help? Being crap of football that's what doesn't help. That's what doesn't help. Being crap signing crap players that's what doesn't help. Sign good players and me. You know what? No, it's not good. No, it's genuinely not good. Having a team that's crap buying crap players being not not one minute being entertaining. Not being entertained in one tiny set. Like I have not been entertained for a second watching Everton this season or last season right now so not we're not entertained. We've been told the prices are going up for next season. We've already been told right that the prices are going up and again I ate this on a crowd. It's got nothing to do with the crowd. It's got nothing to do with the crowd. It's about players who wake all week who wake all week on the training field to sit to create scenarios and then just being rubbish. It's not the fans yeah fans were quiet today but it wasn't toxic. The toxic it's I ate that crap but talk to me and it's quite because they were because they voiced their opinions after paying all kinds of money. Absolute nonsense so Mopai gets a two and I feel like I'm being generous. The subs the Marey Gray. Yeah that's his moments. He's going very Peter Bagley with his with his on the on when he's wired. Just do what you're going to do. Just get the ball beat the play and get it in the box. Put a really decent ball in for the free kick which we should have scored from. The Marey Gray makes the Marey give Ben Goffrey makes a mess of it for me. He's got an open goal and he just talked about it in a minute. I've given him a five though. Ben Goffrey yeah did all right. Did okay. Should have scored like I've just said. Should have scored. It's an open goal. Was an open goal. So I've given him a five. Tom Cannon never got the ball. To be honest the ball never went there because we have a team that doesn't know how to put a ball into a striker. That's where we are by the way. That's where we are. We've got a team that doesn't even know how to get the ball to its strikers now because they don't know what to do when they're on the ball. They don't know how to get it into strikers. They don't know how to put it in dangerous areas. The play is and this is why this is why it's so important that if we we need more than just a striker we need a creator because we don't have players who know where to put the ball. Mike you're absolutely right. I will put Ben Goffrey left back. I really would. I really would. We need more than a striker because we don't we have wide players who don't know where to put the ball or don't put the ball because the scared the whole team is terrified of losing the ball and that winning goal is the reason why. Tom Karn, I felt sorry for him, made his evident debut and he comes on and he sees his conceded last minute winner. So I felt I did feel sorry for him but he didn't really do anything while he was on the pitch. He didn't really have the opportunity to do anything if I'm honest. So I've given him a five. The Corae. The Corae for me should have come on for own on it. I wouldn't have took Garner off. I wouldn't have took Garner off. Personally. But he did. He rolled the dice and he come back and beat him. So there you go. I've given him a three. I thought he was dreadful to be honest. Now listen. I'll be as honest as the day is long. Notice to a couple of people in the comments they're saying this channel because it has got certain affiliations with the football club. It has no affiliations with the football club. None whatsoever. Just because they throw is a couple of interviews doesn't mean we have an affiliate with the club. We have no affiliations with the club and I have no issue upsetting people who are having a football club none at all. Anyone who watches Toffy TV Premier every day will tell you I have no problem upsetting people at the football club. I would upset them all day long if I thought it would make a change to the football club. I'll be very very honest with this. This team goes down. That team goes down today. It goes down. With Mopai playing up front it goes down. With McNeill playing it goes down. With Gordon playing it goes down. This team goes down. I have no issue in saying that. Let's get a bit of realism here. It's all wake up and people go with Tony Boxing Day. If your team is crap on Boxing Day and it's round the bottom three which it'll be on Saturday I imagine. Luckily I think Southampton got beat today as well but obviously Wolves did win. This team will go down. Unless Dominic Arvallun plays 20 league games if we don't bring in a proper real creative number 10 stroke 8. What I mean by that is like a kudos. A player who scores goals and makes goals. You can sit there and go oh he's got like this many assists. He scored one goal. He scored one goal and that's all that matters. That's all that matters. He scored one goal and he's made okay five goals. Unless they bring in a player who really can affect the play then this event team will be relegated and I think we've all got to be very honest about that. I think we've all got to be very honest about that we are a terrible football team and when we go off that basis then because there's far too many people who go oh you look at this team and oh it could be better or it could do this or you know just bad today. So there's anything we were bad. I thought we were normal but that's for me that's normal 11. That's just normal 11. Not being entertained. Not having shot on target. Not really dominating the game. I think we had probably had more possession but I never felt we did anything with it. That to me is just whatever now. So I don't know. I don't know what. I just think that we have to you know we have to go out and and really really up you know bring players in because as I said that team. There's no spark. There's no talisman. There's no charlison. There's no you know in the past there's no whoever you wanted to whoever you relied on to score your goals. They currently do not play for heaven. So something has to change. Something has to give and that's not the manager by the way. That's not me saying sector manager. That's not me saying that at all. That means getting good players and stop relying on players that you think are going to be good. That aren't good. Simple as that. Simple as that because if we think we're going to rely on these players for the rest of the season then it's not happening. It's not a wrap. They're just not good enough and people have just got their older hands up instead of going oh he's only 22. Like 22 when he played under games for the Burnley by the way in the Premier League. It's just like be honest they're not good enough. No point beating around the busher barri and to be fair and I've seen a few people saying I don't know why saying about the Frank Lampard interview before the break. Frank Lampard did say that his the achievement this season will be staying up. It will be some achievements staying up with this this set of players. But everything I've got to I mean do you want to listen? Do you know? And if you don't know then they're in massive trouble if they don't know that we are um we are a mess. Do you got this and I just feel like I'm rambling on but I haven't rambled on for a while have I so there you go. There you go. Make sure if you haven't already. Check out my glassy reaction. Check out Baz's match reaction. Um and yeah. Check out his three things from today as well. Uh we'll be doing the final word live tomorrow over on Trophy TV Premier.
