 Welcome to Toffy TV, it's the instant match reaction, Crystal Palace nil, Everton nil, not the greatest start of the season for us. Andre Gomez went off injured before half time and Morgan Snyddlen was sent off with 10 minutes to go. So not the greatest start for our midfield with Fabian Delph already injured, it's going to be very interesting next weekend. Start of the game very much like we thought we would with the team, Snyddlen in instead of obviously Ghana with there being no Delph. And I thought early on we started being very, very comfortably, couple of early chances and chances. Guilfee Sigarton should have done a lot better and there was a couple of balls into the box that we should have done a lot better with. And as the game went on it felt very much like last year's game and a lot of last season's away games where that lack of cutting edge or the lack of taking chances in games where you may not get a lot of chances was our real Achilles heel sadly. If we want to finish top six we're going to have to win games like that today. The only thing I would say is first game of the season, as I mentioned Delph's out injured, Moise Keane's are the weak training, Gabbamans are the weak's training. We're trying to change, we haven't got a woe being, we're trying to change things round, we haven't had time to change things round because of how like we brought a lot of the players in. So disappointing going forward, I thought the front four were really, really poor. I thought that Charleston would obviously only a weak training in himself or two weak training with him, only one pre-season game under his belt looked rusty. Bernard and Sigarton both looked rusty and they've got no excuse really so if anyone's going to point any fingers it should be Bernard and Guilfee Sigarton who were really poor today. Dom not aggressive enough for me. If he really wants to be a true ever number nine he's got to start putting some aggression into his game because he's just not aggressive enough. He doesn't go with enough balls in the air and anticipate where they're going to go but he's just got to get that aggressiveness in his game and then that's something the whole team needs to do. We knock it round really nicely but when we need to step it up we don't seem to do that but today first game of the season it's not always easy. You're not going to be fully fair first game of the season, I appreciate that. Players are at different levels as well and we've seen that when Gabamon came on. I thought with Andre Gold was in the middle of the park, he wasn't massively effective but you see what he did when he went off the pitch, we just couldn't get older the ball in. He's got himself booked for a really petulant incident. Yes it probably wasn't as dramatic as the player made out I think it was Aiu but once you show dissent to the referee especially on first day of the season there's not going to take it. He gets himself booked then he's on a tightrope, he gets sent off it's a stupid send enough because he's slow to the ball to a challenge he shouldn't be going in for. It's in the middle of the pitch it's not going to do anything and you're left with then Gabamon who looked straight away looked completely off the pace and lacking in sharpness, struggling in midfield, put alongside Davis and luckily enough they held it together as a two lads. We did look rusty, some of our better players looked rusty. What I would say is that Michael Keane and Jerry Mina looked excellent at the back and Jordan Pickford made a couple of really big saves so them three looked really good. She was coming for a lot of the game, looked good going forward but then kept on getting caught the other way. Dean looked really rusty as well. I don't know whether that's down to the pre-season. I haven't really said too much about the pre-season but I didn't think it was intense enough. But then again did we have the players, this is the problem when we talk about a squad, did we have the players to, every time we brought players on they were always kids, always kids or squad players that we don't want. There was just a lack of numbers in pre-season and maybe that stopped them from players playing real good solid hours and I don't know but the likes of Sigarton and Bernard didn't have good pre-seasons and it showed today as far as I was concerned. But listen, it's the first game of the season. The most annoying thing is Palace of Garbage, they're really hardy. They just pause, Sahar came on and we all thought he was going to score, he didn't look that arsed if I'm honest. The game is there to be won but we just couldn't grab it, no-one on the pitch could grab it by the scuff of the neck and that's the most disappointing thing. So we've got a point, same as last season, same situation as last season, we've got a chance to see Gabarman y Moise Keane, both of them look lacking in that match-sharp and that'll come another week of training now and we'll have to look at the situation in midfield, whether Delph will be available, what Gomez's situation is. It's dead mad, isn't it? I love this when you see people saying when we're trying to buy people, what's the point? Who are they going to play instead of? Well, within the space of one game, we lose a play through suspension, lose a player through injury and we've got another midfielder injured and the other midfielder looks very raw. So when people ask that question, you know, is Tom Davis going to get a chance? Well, Tom Davis is probably going to start next week. That's football for you, that's how quickly you can change in the Premier League. So it's not an ideal start of the season but going down to 10 men, we held it together and we still tried to win the game, at 10 men as well, I would say that. We had a couple of good chances, with Charleston had a really good chance to second half when he killed it wide. Guilfee had one flicked off the line on another day, day going. I think the big problem for Evan is getting that first goal, especially in the way games. If we get the first goal in that game today, we win that game comfortably for me but we didn't. That's the big problem and that's the issue the manager's got to solve. He's got to get more out of the centre forward, whether it be Moise King or Dom. He's got to get more. Guilfee's got to be on the ball more and if he's not then it's got to be, then a Wobie's got to come in with that pace. And we've got to find the solutions to the problems that we had last season but they weren't all going to be solved today. Let's get that right, they weren't all going to be solved today. It's a point. It's not great. It's not terrible. It's a point and that's how we start the season. We've got to improve. We knew that anyway and we'll see what happens. Anyway, let me know your thoughts in the comments. Make sure to check out my player ratings video as well and Baz's video. Thanks for watching. I'll see you later.
