 Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the Everton News Daily. Mason Holgate has said that he aims to improve every day. Speaking to Everton TV, he said that not many 23-year-olds centre-backs are playing regularly in the Premier League and he understands that he has made a lot of progress this season. He said he just wants to work hard and he's always been convinced that he was a centre-back. He said but maybe he didn't appreciate that yet to be a stronger and more physical player to be able to play in that role and he's grown into where he feels and is currently enjoying his best run in the Premier League. Speaking about Sunday's disappointing 4-0 defeat at Chelsea, he said we had an off-day, everybody has off-days but we have to work hard and make sure that we cut out the silly mistakes if we're to improve. But he's been fantastic Holgate and Sunday didn't have a great game but it's good to see a young player just signed a new 5-year deal last week talking about having to work hard, having to improve and he's turning into being a real excellent centre-back for Everton and hopefully he can continue that improvement as we move forward. Gibrill Sitherby says he would be happy to stay at Everton beyond this season. He was speaking to French media team, spoke about being at Everton, spoke about having the green light from Carlo in terms of staying. I'm not convinced to be honest, I don't think he was ever going to sit on French television and say no I'm not going to stay when there's still nine games to play for this season. And also the other side to that is Everton, I don't think I'm going to indicate to him that he don't want to keep him if that's the case this early. It may well be that he does sign, he's obviously available for 13.5 million I think it is in the summer but like I say I'm unsure whether he actually will stay or Everton will actually want to buy him again. We just have to wait and see on that one monthly. Everton again today linked with Sassarola Winger Jeremy Boga. He's available for around £15 million apparently. He's compared himself to Edwin Hazard, said that's the level he thinks he can get to. Wouldn't be bad would he? Carlo Antilotti obviously seen him at close quarters managing in Italy and come across Boga a couple of times and Italian media saying that Everton kept tabs on him all season and he could potentially move this summer. Crystal Palace, director of football Dougie Freeman is apparently still interested in taking shanked tokens from Everton on a permanent basis. The Turkish striker Dam is ACL last week in training with Crystal Palace. He's going to be, he's had the operation I think this week's having the operation and it'll probably see him out of action for between six and nine months which kind of rules out Crystal Palace permanent deal in the summer whether or not they come back for him next January. If he's fit, who knows, find that story a little bit strange to say the least. And Martin Atkinson has been confirmed as the referee for Monday's Masyside Derby at Goodersham Park. Michael Oliver is the VAR for that one. It's Atkinson's seventh derby. He also refereed the Goodersham derby last season which ended nil nil. Both supporters have been equally scathing in the appointment. Evertonians ffumin, but Liverpool fans equally unhappy. It seems they hate him as well. So there you go. Another piece of derby news. Alison has been ruled out of the derby on Monday. A hip injury keeping him out of Liverpool's gaming athletic home adrid and the Masyside Derby. So Adrian will be in goal for both of those games. And then coronavirus update, as fears increase in the UK, apparently Premier League clubs have had meetings regarding playing games behind closed doors. A lot of people coming out and saying they're not in favour of that. They'd rather be suspended. There's some rumours that it may even lead to the season being cancelled if there isn't an end to the threat of the coronavirus. Bernard was speaking to ESPN and he said the players would be really sad to play games behind closed doors and I don't think in my opinion it would be good for the championship. The Premier League is all about the fans and it would be not the shame playing in empty stadiums. Other people have come out in support of this and said that they don't think it's fair if the games are played behind closed doors. Pep Guardiola is not a fan of it as well. So the more people that start to discuss this, maybe the Premier League will have a decision to make. Because it is about the supporters, isn't it? That's all. It's about playing games in empty stadiums. It doesn't make sense. Especially if you're trying to contain something like the coronavirus and the latest supporters were two weeks behind Italy. Stop everything for a few weeks and see if we can get old of it and then let things settle down. But you'll have to watch this space to see whether there's any changes on that. But at the moment, the next stage is them playing Premier League games behind closed doors. So let's see what happens there. Make sure you give the video a thumbs up, subscribe if you haven't.
