Good to have you back, first and foremost. Good to be back. It's been a while. Last week, we drew a Burnley and we had Chelsea and Lester to come difficult games. Who'd have thought that we've struck six points? Back to back wins, yeah. I think, obviously, what the fans expect to be Burnley's the world when you come to these two games. I think we had middle and expectations, I guess. We've got six points at the end of the day, Carl did the right thing in both games. And we'll talk about it in detail now, but I think the organisation and the discipline are the real keys, really. I think one of the things, I'm impressed with what you're saying. Probably going into the Burnley game, but in and around that of it. You've got to start keeping clean sheets. We have to get back to basics. I know it's not when you're building or you think you're building something. It's not the ideal way to look at it, but then I think a lot of people will say, that's how you build winning teams by stop conceiving goals first and foremost. We've done that, haven't we, we've seen. We played that three at the back against Leeds and it didn't work after we'd done it against Fulham and it had worked. And we went to Burnley and we went with the three at the back again. And obviously an injury to Delth changed it, we went four. And the minute we changed from three to four at Burnley, we took over the control of the game. And since then, we've looked like we're in control of what we're doing. And that's been a big key, hasn't it, a big thing? Yeah, I understand, you know, how people think that we're going to the three costless games. But you had to try it, you know, we were great going forward, you know, in the other part of the season, but we were still conceiving two goals of games. You have to try things and not everything that you try and work. So we tried the three, it didn't quite work and then an injury and then we went back to the four. And then we were still not stumbled onto it. And Carl will probably always plan to go back to a four when we had the players. But it certainly worked because I think it's a lot of people, some people, you know what I mean, especially to play the natural games, especially when you're sitting a bit tighter, it behooves them more than trying to play off from the back and be a bit more expansive. So it works and obviously against Chelsea and Leicester, the way to beat Chelsea and Leicester is to keep the pitch narrow, block off central spaces and make them cross it because you've got two big centre offs like I said at the ball out. Sometimes you have to have a manager's confidence enough and humble enough to say let's just get back to basics. Some managers just can't do that or I think Carl is big enough to do that. And that's been a big thing as in there. Obviously we've had injuries, we've lost Lupidine who's a great left back, not only defensive, he's good and good in the air. He's one of our most creative players going forward. That's been a big adjustment and obviously we tried. Alex said, whoa, we're there against Leeds and it didn't quite work. Delph injured knees out now. So Ben got off, he's gone there and done absolutely brilliantly. And we've fended up because we haven't got James Coleman in the side. We've now got Mason Holgate at right back. So we've got four lads we'd like to defend now at the back and making it obviously very difficult for teams. Going into this one, I think that was the thing. Keep that back for clean sheets against Chelsea. Can we do it against Leicester? The manager made one change and it was a big call. We were talking with him before the game. I wonder if there'll be any rotation and I'm like, keep it as it is because let's try and build momentum. And then he makes the one change and it's Robin Olson for Jordan Pickford. Big cut. Yeah it was and you'd expect more to see an Olson against maybe a team that crosses it more because he's a bigger presence than Jordan Pickford but now the manager, I think he did make a promise to Olson that he would play games and decide to rotate. I don't think Jordan Pickford has a manager. He hasn't been dropped. He hasn't been particularly bad in the last few games. There's only been minor things that you can pick him up on but he's been fine. But now the manager decided to drop him and they got what was good. They didn't have to do much just to be secure. That's all we need really sometimes. I think the biggest compliment I think I said to you before, off cabinet, I just didn't have any concerns about him. They didn't even think about him being in goal. If that makes sense in the game, it wasn't like what's Olson going to be like? It was just like he had his own goal and it's fine. That's because like you said, he's just steady isn't he? He's a big steady player. It's a big presence here and I think obviously I don't want to get into more Jordan Pickford stuff but I think sometimes Pickford, he can be good but sometimes there's confidence issues with the back four and I think with Olson he may not be as a flashy goalkeeper as Pickford at times but he's just that steady six, seven, eights out of ten player who just performs at a consistent level and sometimes you need that. I think we've seen Olson sometimes beat themselves and I think often when we have made mistakes whether they be the goalkeeper or the players, you can beat yourself and I think I by having a steady presence and go it certainly cuts that one part of the area out. Definitely. The game kicked off and less they had the chance within the opening minutes or so a shot from Tealumans, a nice little move actually and Tealumans dragged the shot wide but then after that everything kind of got to grips with the game didn't they? Make sure they had two banks of four. I think out of possession it looked a little bit more like a 4-4-2 or a 4-4-1-1 really didn't it? Yeah, there was a couple of things. I think when we were, the ball was in there after it was 4-4-2 with Guilffy pressing high and then when it came into our half he'd drop into 4-5-1 or 4-1-1 then to add that. So yeah, there was a couple of different phases of playing so it was a change of possession. Obviously it was 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1 out of possession whenever you want to spend on what Guilffy was doing but yeah I think we sort of cut the, we narrowed the gaps and cut the space because I think the first over a minute when they had that chance there was a couple of balls and they were finding pockets of space in the half space and then I think that we adjusted the shape and they couldn't really get anything going which is exactly what we did against Chelsea as well. I think that's been a big plus over the last couple of games that the willingness to drop into and keep your shape good and it does, listen we've played against, the last two games have been against teams who people have expected to beat us and I think sometimes when you're the underdog it's easier to just know what your job is and stick to it. The challenge is when you're not the underdog and you have to do a bit more and I think I've been a fan of that shortly in the second pocket of games I think the first, the start of the season we brushed everyone aside by outscoring them then we hit a little bit of a rough patch obviously due to injuries there's been reasons why we weren't as fluid in the next bit but some of those games was against teams we expected to beat with that little bit of arrogance and we couldn't quite do it. The last couple of played into our hands of being able to go well we're going to sit compact and can you, you know, we'll stick to our jobs or are you good enough to break us down but I actually think looking at the league and looking at the likes of Spares that's all top and the top are very structured and go well you know what we've got a couple of lads at the top end of the pitch who will get goals Everton have got that haven't they so is there something that we can we can adopt for now to build momentum and then maybe try to ease back into a more attack and play Yeah I think you know the key people of the corner are doing it Marino and obviously he's backing Vogue but I think what it is really isn't he talks about himself is I think by making too many mistakes and sometimes having control with possession I use that with the air quotes there is that actually you're more open to making mistakes and that's why Tottenham because they've got to go forwards on these upon chances and I think with us we can do that I think that's why we've done other last two games we've sort of let them make the mistakes and Chelsea just from the opening minute couldn't wait us out really to start crossing which is not their game or without desire sort of playing between the lines and they couldn't find any space I think with Leicester I think there's elements of now I think people know what Leicester are if you don't afford Vardy spacing behind it or Madison and others you can be good other times can be a bit anonymous to try and break teams down and they just couldn't do anything and they're all smart and they're thinking don't be wrong I'd like to play a certain way but sometimes you just have to go back to basics and we did that and I think we can do that and as you say it's got to be incremental and you can't just go back to let's throw Hamers back in and don't be wrong I think Hamers would probably play most of the games they do but in certain games you could think we'll bring them on at 60 minutes and tie our legs and start picking people apart because 1-0, 2-0 already open and then you can start going for the 0 1-0 or whatever it's just how you play you don't have to play the same way in every game that's key I think too many teams often do that Yeah I just felt after the first 10-15 minutes we were comfortable then and then we started trying to counter attack them and we'd had a couple of opportunities where we'd got in a woby had a couple of blocked out for corners and stuff and it was Alex a woby that opened the pitch up for the first goal got it over to him he comes inside and plays a nice crossfield ball this counters and assists to Rathialason and he cuts back inside gets a good shot away and Michael will probably think he should have saved it but it ended up in the back of the net a big goal for Rathialason his first Premier League all for him open play having scored since the penalty a palace in the league and it was a great boost for us and it gave us then something to not cling on to because I don't think that was the right phrase but it gave us something to hold on to and to build for him didn't it No exactly the manager's told I think Sam Ardice that speech he did on Sky Sport said I think we've scored the first goal in the games I think it's about 65% going to win or get a draw at least that first goal was important and when you're playing like we were last night that first goal was all important so obviously we got the first goal I think they had that chance of value about a minute or two later when the cross came in from Justin and he headed straight out at Robert Olson and then on really didn't really trouble us and I think we started to step into the game and I think what the key was was the organisation after that he couldn't really break us down I think when we did go forward we quickly reverted back into our shape I think that's the discipline of Carl you can see the work that's been done the training pitch there and it was excellent it was really impressive to watch Yeah it was we almost got a second goal as well you're right you know Jamie Vardy had a header that he flashed straight to Olson tenderl under at the shot which you'd expect to keep it to save which he did do tough angle yeah and we had the opportunity where Dom's flashed a header straight into the arms of Schmeichel he was quite similar to Vardy's one and we had the other one which a Woby Cup back and it was like an attempt that you know brought a Guilfe and he couldn't get a slick on it but we did carry a threat going forward and I think that's been the impressive thing I think that we've managed to turn around is that not only are we defending so much better and with such discipline we are carrying a threat when we go forward does it need to be better of course it does does it need to be sharper at times yes it does but we are a threat we're a goal threat having Dom obviously we've got the Premier League top scorer through the middle but if Richard Jarlison can now pick his goals up as well and we can get others bobbing in then we've got a chance of doing something and really staying in the home for Europe haven't you? I think we can create some but I think in every game this season apart from certain games where we I suppose the formation wasn't conducive to it being Newcastle I think we can create chances against anyone it's just as you say I think it's that balance from Tabach and I think we found it in recent games I think we can get better going forward and being solid but I agree with you there I think we can create chances on it in most games obviously after half an hour thirty-five minutes wherever it was we had a crushing blow Allen he was having a really influential game he played a couple of marvellous switches out to a woby carries it so well as well he had one at the end into the box when a corner got out and he just cushioned it off first time and he was just in the right place and he was dictating the play and he goes chasing I think it's just and he's running after over whatever on the right hand side and this hamstring goes and you see the hand up immediately and you know you just think oh god there we go again because you know when some teams beam on injuries but they've got squads of about thirty-five players and you know there are in just the 123 players there are injured over everything they're injured but it's another big one for us isn't it you know that's Coleman Dean you know him being out Hamers' camp being out Allen you think looking at the injury you're looking at at least four to six weeks with that which is a hammer blow because he's been overall he's been excellent since we brought him in hasn't he he has been you know I think people have the worries about him coming over from Italy but he's you know don't mean wrong he hasn't played his most favoured role but he you know he adds that intensity that bite in the field and I think it's quite infectious to my other players so to get him into core just cover everybody in the grass together don't they I think the core into people will get on to him later but if you pick up the slack once he went off but it's just now I think what you're bringing the type of players you've got on the bench without dealing with Delph being injured obviously give on and being a long team we haven't really got any out and out that's just the situation we're in at the moment but yeah it was a big blow when he went off you're right I mean obviously it's a big blow we've had to recover from and we've had to recover from all the stuff this season so you know but I had to like the core I went in I mean were you surprised he brought Gomez on or no I think you can tell who he trusts and doesn't trust and I think Gomez is trust from last season or this season so again for me Tom I would have brought Tom Kenny on it right back and had Mason Gomez in the field but the manager made his choice when we were in the game so he was right in the end but I just think in them situations Gomez is a bit I don't know he's a bit loose as a player and you know they had a bit of a difficult game but in the day we were in the game so you can't question it can't really we got in obviously we were one up at the break come out in the second half and you think they will have to do more because we were in control of you know we didn't have the ball we were in control of the game they weren't hating us whatsoever in fact they had the ball they had it and the under shot they didn't have another attempt on track other than all night so it shows you're how much effort and way in control they had a couple of shots from about 35 yards which flew over the bar and in the second half they did come up they tried to up the tempo a little bit but that was what was impressive is that we were always in shape weren't we unless they're a good track you know they knock it round nicely you give them space they can't hurt you Everton just didn't give them the space and particularly the core right he made a couple he made a really important challenge on Vadi in the first half he made one on half he bans in the second half and he I just thought he was brilliant and we you know they're like the shiggers he was disciplined dropped in he was disciplined and Gomez the frustrating thing about Gomez is he does some really good stuff he's technically very good and he takes the ball and he can get away from people but it's a sloppy ball or his head will be looking round for a passing someone on the knicker off him or he just doesn't do it quick enough he just then ends up frustrating it doesn't he yeah I think on the ball he can be quite classy you know I've said in the past sometimes I think it's a little bit you know lack substance what he does I think it's a lot of show but by the way it's defensively way it doesn't see it's not natural for him to pick up runners and when there's two in the field and two queries doing the work of six men at times but you can't you need to play your part and I think others you know Gilvie Sigurdson who's known a bad defender and Alex Warwick who's got better defender they did their part they were getting back Gomez needed to put the same level and he just didn't and well you know we'll get on to it in a minute the almost penalty but it was common because it's a silly yellow card you know he just lacks a bit of discipline whether it's positionally or just in the way he plays he just needs to play a bit more disciplined at times a fan he passes it back too much I don't know I think it's easy to blame I think you know we didn't lose at the end of the day but he just needs to be a bit more what's the way a bit more impetus when he's on the ball a bit more you know on it mentally than he is at the moment Definitely but again you know like you said the impressive thing was the shape and we did limit Leicester's opportunities really I mean they had to have his bands run like I said before he was probably the one of the brightest player's bands and Justin on the other side he was a real threat all night but I just thought we I just thought everything we did was very calm even when we had the ball we were there was science you know sometimes it gives you kittens but we were playing little triangles at the back and working the space and getting it out right and left and switching it again I thought Hullgate was good in discipline the war he'd done Ben Goffrey was a real you know had a really solid game and was up and down and like you said we did carry a threat you know on the counter attack and we we get a corner and corners put in it go dead by Michael King great save from Smichael then Dom should score but Smichael does pull off an unbelievable save and Mason Hullgate there to force it over the line and give us that little bit of breathing space that just give us more confidence and it was again something we'd said in the the pre-match stuff was that Leicester a little bit vulnerable off set plays and Everton took full advantage of it didn't he? Yeah there's just a great save by Guy Smichael on looking at it you know get away with it but in the day he'd come back on the danger zone and make some brother away but I think we were quite dangerous from set pieces all night I think the Guilfey's delivery was good I think a couple of headers flashed out you know wide you know every time it came in you thought we've got a chance here so yeah I think I think the score line there too and I think we were worth it I don't as you say after that certain point that we just closed everything down just everything's out we've got towards obviously the final third and towards our box but never created any opportunities of note I think we just cut everything down which has been the difficult form we just got players in front and impressed them well we didn't over come it over come it forward I think it really smart intelligent performance overall by ever in that sense Definitely I mean they had won that far the good run on the comeback too and we got a block in on it and that was really it there was nothing really that they had I think when you're playing against a good side like Leicester you don't forget could have gone top if they'd have beat us and you're able to keep that discipline and you're able to keep that level of control I think that's got to be a big confidence boost there in what you're doing as well and I just think going into obviously there's a lot of games coming up as well the manager you'll have to use the squad we've seen what's happened with Alan and we've lost other players but it's important that they keep what they've got right now in terms of that steely determination to keep clean sheet you know we've had one clean sheet before Saturday we've now had two in two games and that'll give everybody a boost on it and the minute you stop conceding goals you feel like you can win every game because obviously you don't really need that and it might come off a set play like you did last night or a moment of brilliance from the charlots no we get wide and put a good ball into dom yes we've got to be better offensively of course we have because long term we're never you're not really likely to win things playing this way long term it can be done of course but you're not losing points by defeating yourself and I think you'll be playing a team on Saturday that often defeats themselves because they try and play a certain way and I think in this season we've caused ourselves problems by trying to play a certain way so just being a bit smart but as I say you can work it back in incrementally until we've got the level of players that Carla wants to play his style I think you've got to hold certain things off and just say being solid and keeping clean she'll put us in the position to win more points over the course of the season Definitely I know just want to throw my hammers rod rigas just for a minute before we get back on to the game and being talk about him a bit late and people are just being defensively big and big and defensively I've questioned certain things about him I've seen some blues fans saying aww, is he good enough to get back in our team that I find bizarre but I just think the first four games, five games of the season, we were all loading We were the best players in the league Exactly we were waxing the next section of games he got a heavy knock-off fan wasn't being right for a few games and that coupled with the fact that the team wasn't a lost injuries up in Newcast we were out six first teamers everything can't play that way no chance, we know we lost we could have been through a suspension we got the three games, Seamus was out Midfield players were missing with Charleston was out for three games there was a lot of different factors then he came back Columbia were playing, he was flying over there but I actually think now with this back four he wouldn't be exposed and he went near enough to do a very good job of rip-off but he's a defender the defence is nice and solid the midfield is working so I'm not sitting here going take a ball and be back out and put him back in I'm just saying, if you put hammers back into this side I think there's more players to cover now we've got a different question because we've got no alum we've lost a defender if that makes sense but within that team the way it's defending you can play in that and actually just make it more creative without us losing too much of the defensive side of it the thing is with hammers I think sometimes when players are so good you expect them to be able to do everything you've got this trade-offs hammers is a luxury player because he's in a match with one touch or with one pass I think you have to understand you have to surround him with the right players to make him successful can you hide his deficiencies which are not many, it's obviously defensively by playing him as the 10 behind Dom where Guilffy's been playing against certain teams keep a woby there for you so you can cover the full back yes then you can do that I think to be able to tend to obviously it's very reactive the world of football twitter because you've got nothing else to talk about really I think to be wrong he does expose your full back against certain teams you've got really good full backs it can cause problems but he creates match with an opportunity he saw against Burnley with Guilffy and missed them fortunately it's a trade-off like a injury he's getting injured a lot we wouldn't have gone for free if he wasn't injury pro and you've got to balance these things out hammers can be really great assets and just how you use them and use them in the correct way I think Carl are now in the play as well as he does I think he'll know exactly how to use them I feel balanced as well as getting them I feel balanced so that it covers that this is something me impet like Liverpool you look at Liverpool because they're the benchmarkers, they're the top team they've got three very industrious midfiel players they don't expect more salas of lumbach and more tachels in the right back because then three do it other great teams, you've seen Bayern do it in the past have seen Spades under Potatino at times do it with three midfielders who were all flat midfielders as they cover a lot of the ground and you let your offensive players do the work and if everything could get the and again like I've just said it's going to be more difficult at the minute because obviously Alan's out but if we can get that midfield three right then hammers won't even be an issue he'll just be everything he does Carl are once a lot he said last week I think in a press conference I bought him to attack he's not been brought in to defend he's come in to help us attack in the final third so that's what we look at as a coaching staff Exactly, I think you're united of the team they've got about it wrong Paul Pogburn who's at your event for example at two water guys in Matweedy and a matchess who did all the work for him and adding to Accentuate's talents whatever it needs, if they had Alan's Corey if they could do that as you say it's all about balance it's like smoking me as you hide someone's deficiencies maybe defensive by having other players you can cut the slack hammers was the one to blame which is crazy considering how much good he does in the final third Definitely, and I think he's like that third top scorer second top scorer So yet so, you know, tune it up 20 odd minutes ago Coddw'r meid i three nil, you know, gilthi flashbar over the bar didn't he Limit and less that they were getting a bit frustrated they made a couple of changes to see Perez on was definitely looking to win Files and as you're getting into that last you know what, when I'm watching I'm going three five minute times I just get through this next five minutes not in silly turn them, you know let them play in there half keep it away from our goal essentially and we did that really well in the main and then we have that situation with Gomez as turned them and running Gomez has got an opportunity to make a professional foul I guess, fair that, you know away from our goal and he let them run he just that thing way he just let them run and run and run and then throws out a he flashes a little foot at the ball and Perez, now Perez went down the referee gives a penalty you first look at your go penalty what are you doing because they're being signed ten minutes earlier with Gomez where he's turning and thinking I've got all the time and people are nicking it off him struggling in possession just do things a bit sharp make your decision a bit earlier and that one, I was absolutely livid that he'd give them such a cheap opportunity to put the pressure on okay there was two minutes left in real time you knew there was going to be four or five minutes off with time but we've got to the sweet spot of this game where they kind of dropped off you know, Vardy never drops off of course but they kind of dropped off and they look like they lost belief they could get back in it and you don't give them any encouragement and he goes and does that I think it's so annoying I think this has been a feature of Evan I think obviously we've done it less this season giving away silly fouls and silly areas and as you say he lets the player run so he gives it one of those and then decides to try and go he probably had a watch 20-30% of the chance of winning the ball at the edge of the box it's just not smart he needs to make better decisions than that he's someone who generally does make good decisions on the ball to be honest but he's not a great defender as you say, 2-1 it never happened but just the frustration that you could see coming just a bit of a dumb situation to get yourself into it didn't cost us in the end you like the decision by Mason by Mason? because he's got a touch on the ball and I think the player was going down anyway because he saw the foot I think that was the problem with Perez I think he's just got about good enough of the ball but I think the player was going down so early in the action maybe he actually got the ball there she never gives Evan anything I can't I'm nearly alone I guess overall last night he was alright but obviously the VIA fell carlowant i lot he actually thanked the assistant referee for making him go over because he said once you've seen it again you could see it wasn't a penalty Brandon Rodgers obviously had the other view I looked at it and she well you would do wouldn't you I looked at it and she I first I thought it looks like a penalty then when it shows the other angle and you see in the side you get a nick on the ball that's to be honest certain people give that as a penalty if you look at the referee they didn't want to make the call add a look at it don't exactly what they should do whether it works against Evan don't exactly what they should do go and look at the monitor and make your decision and obviously the fella in the box has said you need to go and look at it because I don't think it's a penalty and he's gone and looked at it and he's overturned his own decision and luckily we've been spared that I mean he's still he's still scored a goal off a corner about two minutes later that I thought oh my god we've done we've glared it in anyway it was just that little thing of don't because we sure have fallen we sure have fallen a few weeks ago we were three one up they were doing nothing and we gave a penalty away okay the lad slips and misses it but it was like from nothing you're like don't give teams away back in if they score a good goal there's not much you can do about it but don't aid that their recovery and it just annoyed me because he couldn't made that I think I'm scared for him I'm scared for him Nicholas Alexander in 1999 or whatever it was now I've chasing a Liverpool player for the 50 yards and then bringing them down in Araf on the callus of the score to win it but listen luckily enough people are sitting go you've got the balls for why you're discussing it because it could have been given as a penalty it was just frustrating I think his overall performance it wasn't to the same level as the other players the performance they put on the pitch and the situation they got it into just like sharpness doesn't it I've mined as well at the moment that might just literally be a confidence thing I think sometimes when players the team it is hard to I've often spoke with others I think that's why I will be sort of go into sort of his overall but I think it's because he's played consistent games and he's now settled into a rhythm I think sometimes you can't play everyone so you need those players to come in but you just don't make mistakes just don't beat yourselves which is what I haven't done too many times in the past I think that's why we all stress so much those final minutes because we know that we've beat ourselves so many times if you're going to control the game not just 80% of the game new casual keeps coming back to you, doesn't it? Exactly, yeah Trunel up a minute to go on your drill tube but yeah I mean the manager brought on the lesser spotted Anthony Gordon at the end which some people will be delighted with I thought he'd done what was asked of him which was good I made a couple of great direct runs I thought into their corner flag which was good I didn't do well, you made good decisions and obviously we brought on our left wing wizard that is John Joe Kenny come on again but obviously that was the time A, it's waste and time and B, it's blocking off James Justin he swapped it up to Charleston and a will be to win in the 70th minute and I thought because I thought a will be was going to come off at that point but no, I think they switched sides because they thought that he would have more joy stopping Justin I don't know why but I think the thing was though is that he thought that Charleston was on a flux run on that area and letting a will be to drop back and sit just in front of Godfrey to try and block him it's also a different looks and different movements as well so it gives him a different problem I like that when people switch wingers sometimes it was good, it was good and obviously we showed the game off and it was a huge satisfying victory against a good side to go there, keep a clean sheet was absolutely brilliant and I think it just gives you that it was just that little boost we needed we'd had a great start at the season we'd all spirited the blues everywhere at me, we were buzzing and then we'd hit that everything this bit thing at me where things had gone wrong for us and we really needed just something to go but I mean, me and Perk kept saying on this that even when it was grim we were looking and going but if we won a game, we're actually still in the hunt or whatever and we just needed that little thing and listen, it's two games and we have to keep it going but we've had two huge victories Chelsea at home lester away it's clean sheets, two big results against teams that other people thought would beat us and we might have thought oh god, not fancy in these games two big results now and it's about what we do for them here isn't it it's building, you've got to build it we've got a blueprint when we play certain sides now which you can keep in your back pocket but there's, as you say, when we play those Chef United's and other teams, we'll have to just change a little bit and it's about keeping the elements of both good parts of the season, this good organisation and defensive part and then mix it with that first couple of weeks attack and since then, you've got a side on your hands then obviously players being fit and healthy so we haven't been key to that but we'll get there but we've talked about the control of it we'll have a look here just at the game now, Leicester sitting 11-2 of course 14 attempts of goal for Leicester 11 for Everton, 2 on target for Leicester 6 of Everton's attempts on target one big chances for Leicester 2 for the Blues Leicester completed 464 a day passes Everton 265 possession 61% possession for Leicester 39% for Everton we have more possession than we did at the weekend which is a good thing I think Everton had an average of just over 50% of the possession in their 13 games this season Leicester's a little bit more than that but Diogwch chi'n gwneud i'w ddod i'w ddod i'w ddod i'w ddod i'w ddod maen nhw'n sefydlu 11% o'r bobl o'r totnwm ni'n ddod i'w ddod i'w ddod i'w ddod i'w ddod i'w ddod i'w ddod i'w ddod I've got the three points and he got up and walked out and we learned this massively and we went to Amfield and I think we all will being hammered 4-0 and he got missed the penalty for 5-0 and Everton had 64% possession and I've had more than double what Liverpool had had in shots and everything we lost the game 4-0 so you know possession under Martin as we won it most weeks and didn't win the game so it's about what you do with the ball isn't it and I thought last night we had more control of that game last night than we did at the weekend against Chelsea the better side they keep the ball Leicester don't want the ball I think when Leicester won the title in 15 I think they had like 34% and even now when you play with the Vardy they still rely on we ought to drag teams out and get them behind and we didn't allow them that and they had to play in front of us which is not their game I suppose that's Brendan Rodgers next task but no you don't have to have possession to control the game you control the narrative of the game which is what we did and I think yeah I think there's the same schools of thought that you can obviously control the game possession I think if you've got Manchester City's team of two years ago and people in the prime you can't do that but when you haven't got that level of team you can't do it and evidently haven't got that level of teams so sometimes gift the possession to the teams and they come out and make mistakes is what you have to do which is what Marine Hill does so well of course and you do that but you do after on the back of that you do after defend well don't you? You do yeah that's the key you can't you know it's making people work hard like I think you know say and Guilffy aren't the best defenders but getting back into that shape it means that less staff to go and build round and again there's no open spaces no gaps them to try and get into and there's no pocket to space so you're making them having to work much harder it's got a half chance which is what we did last night A couple of notable mentions I just wanted to to bring on the first there's a woby these are just some of the stats from the game Passing accuracy is 74% completed 100% of his take-ons 5 out of 5 is the top zible in the game last night created three chances two ball recoveries and completed 100% of his of his clearances and the other notable mention was Mason Holgate who was playing behind him Passing accuracy is 77% obviously scored a goal key goals first ever Premier League goal so that was nice 100% of his take-ons 7 ball recoveries and 150% of his tackles 3 tackles out of 6 and those two down that right hand side I know we swapped the woby with 20 minutes left but they give us a solid base to go from didn't they and Holgate I mean just on we'll come back to a woby before we finish in a minute but Holgate just at right back comfortable isn't he I know he's not a he's not probably James Justin he's never like getting four and putting crosses ironically he did do that for West Brom so whether he could do it but don't know but it's defending face with them isn't it which we had to do didn't we in certain games you know you can do different things I think if look at team was playing you had Mason there you could do that thing with last season where Dean goes up going back three you can do that and I think yeah when he was at West Brom my issue when he was at West Brom playing right back is the pass and I think he hasn't got that he's good from centre back pass now there those triangles that isn't really his game but no last night I think he was exceptionally cut off the space one view on against Barnes he was a good player really a part of that one run really he looked the most dangerous but Mason handled them quite well and I think him and a woby were quite well into him so the build a play from out the back I think he created good angles for himself to get the ball up the pitch I think Mason's good I think I said before this season I think it's a big season because last season was a really big step off for and he needs to keep proving that it was another good performance I think if you can build on that then you can count on him as a real build and block for the future for us seems to have been going from the start yeah definitely I thought we thought about throwing the other good game and I think a woby just before we wrapped this bit up a woby benefiting from just playing in the team now isn't he and it looks a bit fitter looks a little bit sharper again yeah he's lost a bit of muscle weight looks a bit slimmer I think he's much fitter he understands what basically what little left backs don't want to have to come on side on the right foot which he can do which is what we saw him do against Fuchs numerous times yeah it's just that final ball as we discussed off here he comes from an arsenal system where it's working around the box triangles working on the box then working back out the box and then back in the box and he's going to have to take more first time crosses and I think that's something he needs to work on because it's a bit of a change in type of game for him but if he can get that I think he's either going to be faced off the bench or he's going to be starting every other game what the plan is for the game so he's got hopefully he's got one foot in the door of being an evident player who's got a future just needs to keep that consistency going yeah definitely it's a bog build none of this exactly because we need everyone playing at the top of their level we're going into busy periods some tough games got arsenal their own Saturday we've got man united at home in the quarters on Wednesday then Sheffield united away on the Saturday and City at home on the Wednesday and then West Amarome on the Friday all winnable games all winnable but you can only it's about the next game we can only we can't look too far at it but if we keep the tight as we have done in the last couple of games we'll have a chance in every one of those games to get something out of it it's about putting points on the board now isn't it we're in the mix where we'd love to be we're in with a shot of everything at the minute which is great but it's about clinging on in there by just putting points on the board don't lose silly games like Leeds put your chances away when you need to there's four points that we could have had and this season changing things I just think if we can stop the team's score and I think we'll give ourselves a really good chance to have a good platform this season top four is probably really open this season one of those years where I think it's pretty much like the rest of the year we'll see on the title what happens with the title because I think we'll see on Liverpool and Tottenham but I think there's certainly a lot of open spaces and teams to sort of creep in there with our quality especially in the final we can do it we can get people back definitely and to fit quickly then we'll have half a chance won't we but as well as like you say keeping the discipline so there you go great result for Everton at Leicester Day make sure you subscribe give the
