 Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the Starnt 11 show, Brentford versus Everton. Obviously Everton need to get three points. Absolutely desperate now for three points in what is a very, very tough week. But if Everton can start the week off well, then that can give them confidence and some belief to go into the two home games. Obviously against Liverpool and Arsenal and try and get something, but it's not going to be easy, but you know Everton, I've got to see this as a really good opportunity to pick some points up. Let's get into it in goal, Jordan Pickford. Don't think he could have done anything about the goals conceded last week. Say that far too often, but it's true to be honest. So Jordan Pickford in goal. Right back, Seamus Coleman, no one's pushing him. This is hard for the problem of the whole squad, is there's no one really pushing him. You know, maybe when he gets back possibly, then Ben Godfrey might go out back to right back. I'm not sure, but say any John Jo Kenney's not pushing him for that position and that is very much a big problem that Everton this season is that. Players who are not playing well just play every week because there's nobody else. A left back, Luca Deane, he's another one, he's in very similar boat. He's not playing well. I do think though, part of that is because he's not allowed to play his natural game. He really doesn't go over the halfway line nowadays. And it's stopping him from playing his natural game, which is an attack on fullback. OK, maybe not in the rampage and sort of up and down for the entire game, but he is a fullback who likes to play mostly in the opposition's half and that's being stopped and he's not the best defender in the world. And that's shown recently, but he's been definitely stopped from doing what he does best where you'll start at left back. Centre backs, Michael Keane and Ben Godfrey basically again. There are no other centre backs, Mason Hallgate suspended, Jeri Minar is still injured. And again, you could argue that both of these players would be able to side, or at least one of them would be able to side, but one of them will be able to side when Jeri Minar comes back. Maybe as I said, Ben Godfrey might switch to right back just to maybe be a little bit more solid defensively. Like we were last season, but then again, Ben Godfrey hasn't started the season amazingly well, but he does have the excuse that he did have Covid. So, them two to start as the centre backs. As the defensive midfielders, Alan and Delth, a little bit of talk that Alan might have a problem. The manager has confirmed he's got a little problem, but with the squad we've got and the team we've got at the moment for this game, it's a case of patching players up and then sending them out. And we'll find out who really wants to fight for this team and who doesn't. Delth, I didn't think played particularly well last week. It was a case of not upsetting the apple cards for me, the way he ambled round the pitch. But against Bears I thought he played really well, and the second half against Wolves he played well. To be honest, we're lucky to get three performances out of him in a row on the pitch, essentially, getting them on the pitch. It's amazing that he's lasted this long. But I think if, you know, certainly if the Coray, who I'm putting in my side, starts with his training, but obviously they've got to have precautions about him because of the towing and everything and because of the games coming forward. I think if the Coray starts, the Coray can push it forward, he can run with the ball, he can get us going. Allen can then press and then Delth can sit in front of the back four and take the ball off them and be the man who takes the ball, receives the ball and gives it. But I think that to me just with the plays we've got is where we are. I think that it makes sense to have that three because, as I said, they can all do their own jobs. Delth sitting in front of that back four, dictating the pace a little bit more, being an out ball for those centre backs. And then the Coray, hopefully, listen, I don't expect them to be fully up to speed. But him just picking up the ball and moving it, just getting us up the pitch. That's what we've been missing so much while he hasn't been available. On the right hand side, on just Tarn's end, I think although his performance hasn't been as good as what they were at the beginning of the season, he is a player who has consistently give more than other players as being willing to take a few risks and take players on. And just that for go, basically, where other players haven't. So he'll definitely start. On the left hand side, Anthony Gordon, who has, you know, hopefully Grey isn't out for too long and the signs are a little bit more positive that he won't be, but take your chance. I think he wants to play on the left hand side. I think that's a bit more of a natural fit. He can pick the ball up. He can cut inside, see him play for the England on 21s a few weeks back and he looked really natural in that position. Haven't quite seen him do that forever and certainly didn't see him do that last against Manchester City. I think he's just got to be a little bit braver on the ball in attacking sense. I think tactically he's starting to become a little bit more savvy here. But I'd like to just see him start to cut in a little bit and just get shot off. Just test the goalkeeper, see what happens. I think he got certainly one for the England on 21s. He wasn't credited with it in the end, but he had to shorted it some when it went in. Take a few risks. We're going to have to be right at it. If it is tansing, then go on. They're going to have to be right at it in this game. Certainly if the centre forward is Rondon, which does seem to be the case. The manager is alluding to Rondon. Obviously no dom or carbon looming with Charleston suspended. Unfortunately, this is where we are. I know there's a lot of people calling for Sims, but I'm not fully sure Sims is ready to start a Premier League game. I know a lot of people will say, why not try? I'd like to see Sims come off the bench for half an hour in this game and have a real go at them. Have Dobbin, have Sims on the bench ready to come on. Let's see what they can do, whether they can surprise a few players. I don't think they're ready to start games though. I really don't. I think Sims has been coming back from an injury as well. Hasn't played that many games since the end of last season. I think there's been a lot of pressure being put on his shoulders, a lot of hype put on his shoulders because he signed a new contract. Listen, he should be in and around the first team. He's 20 years of age. He should be ready to go, but I don't think he quite is. I just think he needs though to play, come off that bench a few times, but not just for five minutes here or there. 20 minutes, 25 minutes. I suppose like Anthony Gordon did, build it up a little bit. But I expect Rondon to start in this game and he's got to absolutely show more than he has in the past because in the past when he started games, I know when he's been trying to get that fitness, he ambles around like he's just trying to get through 90 minutes. Throw everything at him for an hour, see what you've got, make a nuisance of yourself. We've said it before. Just make a nuisance of yourself, put yourself about, pin them back. So Anthony Gordon tarned in the core, he found that little bit of space. It would be just lovely if Rondon could just attain him one of those performance where he just grabs a couple of goals where Brentford fans are saying, he hasn't scored against anyone. Like people do against us, where people just turn up who haven't scored and scored. Just be nice if Rondon could do that because this is such a big game, but it is winnable, it's very winnable. As I said, I just don't see Sim starting and I just don't think he's done enough yet to warrant that start. Has he come off the bench yet in a Premier League game? No, I don't think he has has he? If he has it, it will be a minute really. So let's see what happens as I said. It's a tough game. Brentford is struggling as well. They're struggling with injuries. They haven't been picking up wins as well. So they'll have a little crisis of confidence. There's an opportunity there on Sunday to get three points. Let's go and take it. Let me know what you think in the comments about my start on 11. Do you disagree loads people will disagree? That's fair enough. That is fair enough. I hope you enjoyed it.
