 Welcome to ToffyTV, there's the match preview of Leicester City versus Everton, I'm joined by Stee, Kelly, how do we put any kind of positive spin on this, cos this is literally last chance, this feels like it, doesn't it, it feels like after what we witnessed Thursday night at goodness and this feels like this is the one because of who we're playing, obviously this is the chance to control our own destiny? Yeah, well currently we're a point ahead of them but they've also got better goals for a difference of two points, so yeah, it is a must win for Everton, not even, to me a draw is not even good enough now, you've got to start putting the wins on the board and these are probably in the same predicaments as us, they've got to win as well, so Yeah, I mean, obviously they're a point ahead of us, the goal difference has taken a battering again for us, these look like they are, even though it's only one game coming from behind against Wolves, probably took a lot of optimism from the Manchester City game, even though they've got to be treating the second half they played really well, and they've got goals, and that's the only, I don't know how long I've had to say this, the only commodity that matters in football is goals, We've got a manager who doesn't really understand, I don't think he understands that at all, we've got a football club that certainly doesn't understand it, because none of them want to buy a striker, and when they did buy a striker last summer it's a striker with no proven goal record, but it's the only commodity that works. Well, you look at Lester the other night, obviously when they played Leeds as well, they brought Vardy off the bench, they brought Dacheron and took any action off, the reality is all three of those players have been from Ferventon, and I just look at Ferventon, last night in Newcastle we brought Marpy on, and he scored one Premier League goal, and I think there's the difference for me. Well yeah, you've got some like Vardy, it's better to have a striker who knows how to score, but he's getting a little bit older than someone who just doesn't score, who's getting older, so I mean as you said they've picked up three points, four points sorry in the last two games, I mean Wolves aren't really a rival they're out of it now, but saying Leeds that was a big point for them, they nearly lost it at the end though, so they did look shaky at times, they're still not great defensively, I mean that's not a great asset for us, because you look at them and go well yeah, but we haven't... No, no, but it is just suddenly, well he hasn't suddenly become a huge game, it is a huge game, and it is that last chance isn't it, because if it hadn't caught a drift, let's not make it absolutely horrendous here, we're not caught a drift, there are only a point in front of us, Leeds are only a couple of points in front of us, you know Forrest is obviously a couple of points above us as well. They're all average teams, to me the only difference is Forrest look genuinely like they're fighting, and whether they've got quality or not, they're fighting, you know Evan and I don't think they're fighting, I don't want to insult anyone at the football club or anything, but you don't look like you're fighting, you did look like you're fighting against Fulham, you did look like you're fighting against Palace, and you certainly didn't look like you're fighting against Newcastle. And that's what I think other teams have got, they've still got like the bit between the teeth a little bit, Forrest for all the lack of quality, they look like they're having a right go, you know, and Leeds are very similar to us, but they've got two more points in this, and that's the problem isn't it, that's all that ultimately matters. The problem for Evan at the moment, they haven't got no plan A, and they haven't got no plan B, and the reality is that we went 1-0 down last night, I honestly thought the minute Newcastle scored it was game over for me, because I just couldn't see Evan getting back into the game, because even when it was 0-0 we didn't create loads, we huffed and puffed, but there wasn't really any for me, like oh we've been unlucky there, we've been unlucky there, just the offside, that was it really. But where Leicester, if you look at their plays in the final third, Madison Barnes players like that, some of them will get, I imagine big moves in the summer to better teams, because of the quality, and yeah it's going to be a real dogfight for Evan, Evan has just got to basically put in a performance like they did last season, but I'm sure Leicester fans will be saying exactly the same, they've got to put in a big performance. Yeah, I think for Leicester, I think Dale really think this is their big chance to get out of it, you know, if they get a win they'll go to 32 points, you know, if other games go their way over the weekend, or our way, let's get it right, our way over the weekend, then that could put them up to 16, but it would also put us up to 16, you know what I mean, but I think Dale really think this is the game. Yeah. Evan's in her own form waiting, one win in 10, Dale be thinking this is the game. On a wave, on a wave. And on a wave performance, awful, beat one team, the team we've bought them with a league, who are, who are dreadful, that we let beat, beat us at Gouldersham Park. No, no. You know, one of the many days Frank Lampard should have been sacked, but that's the way they'd be thinking, and one win in 10 for us, you can see, you just mentioned there, when the goal winning against Newcastle, the confidence just rained out the side, because then suddenly they've got to do something they haven't done all season. And I think this is, I think, I don't want to go overboard about Daesh, about the situation he's found himself in is obviously the standard of team is terrible, he didn't bring any players in. I'm not going to go overboard on him, but I think the one issue is he tried to install this mentality of winning games 1-0. And as soon as the opposition score, it becomes very, very difficult. We've only actually seen one game really, being the Chelsea game, where we've managed to come back in the game. And I think that mentality of get the first goal and then hang on to it, that's what he's sort of gone with. And I don't know how we get away from that, so the other mentality he's got sort of is, if the team do score, don't do anything, don't let them get away from you. Which is, I understand that mentality, but it leads to games like Fulham, and it leads to games like Newcastle, where you don't make the first move, because you're worried that it could open you up. And then you don't make a sub, and then Fulham and Newcastle, and you have to make a sub at 2-3-0. And if I was a player, I mean, listen, every player has done this to themselves, so it's not like they can point fingers. But that is a very, very fine margin of saying we're going to win this 1-0, and we've got to score first. So many things have got to go your way, and when you're not putting the ball in the back of the net, we're not. 20-5 goals all season. I mean, that's just, that is pathetic, isn't it? You know, we have had once in a while goal scorer's who've done that on their own. I know, I think that's said it to you well last night. It was like, I don't think this, you can nick it 1-0, works in the Premier League no more either. No. Because the reality is that there's, even Barlow's, most teams, who actually got some good attack on players these days, and there's better coaches out there now who find ways to beat the 1-0. We haven't done it twice on the day, haven't we? Leeds and Arsenal. And Arsenal, you could say that was the manager bounce day. Not really anyone we've had, I think. But that's where I struggle with everything. There's no plan B. And like last night, there was like, we sat on it until the 65th minutes and it kind of accepted that we were going to give another goal. Well, Mopi was literally about to take his top off on like the 70th minute. Three minutes later, you know that, and then he brings them on. And that's, what are you trying to do? Like, I mean, just another thing to take, just while they're at it, I'm throwing show and dice under the buses. Like the Newcastle game, the amount of variation they had in their sepulges. We've got a guy who's supposed to be for the fine margins and find their ways. And for the first few games, with the far post, the back post corner, and it was working, and then everyone got onto me. Well, he kept doing it, didn't he, last night, but it like you said, set pieces are a huge part of the game, and for some reason we just don't. We can't defend them and can't attack them, so it leads to failure in the end. And then, like I said, this game on Monday night is, I think it is, probably the biggest game in a long time. But for all the wrong reasons, really. Well, it is pathetic those days now, that we're here again. You know, I was looking at me last night. I said, kid, you sit behind me. I was sitting in the row behind last night because you sit next to me, Mrs. I was like, lad, Charlie, I was thinking, it's like 12, 13. This kid's got to go through this again. Kids of his age who support Liverpool will be, will have been to Champions League finals and have been seeing trophies. This kid's having to go through it again. And I know, like, you know, I wasn't quite, I was a little bit older when I was, you know, when I did it myself in the 90s. Like, what are you doing to your family? What are you, this kid, you know, like a lot of kids, like, when you take your lad, with his lad. These kids are the future of our football, and this is what we're putting them through. And I know, like, I know it's a side subject and stuff, but it's just like, it winds me up so much. And to see the position we're in and see what the fans did before the Newcastle game again, and what they did, you know, in the ground outside the ground for the players, the same players, by the way, who were to bring you blue flares, you know what I mean? Any chance of bringing a pair of faulty boots with you? Any chance of tearing them up for one game? Yeah. And I'm putting it in? And I think we've seen today, it's got to the point now where I think a lot of groups and a lot of fans have just basically said it's down to the players, now there's not, we've done it. What can we do? Yeah, we've tried, and I had the comments, someone said to me this morning, they were like, the fans are just tired, and they are, it's the tired families. And you saw that at the end, last night as well, we've done like a people even in the ground, a 4-1. Well, a 3-0. A 3-0, we were starting to. A 3-0 loads got off. Yeah. And it is getting to that point now, can you blame them? No, I can't blame them, but I just wonder how many of those people were the same people who gave daggers to people when you walked out on 27 minutes against Arsenal, mate. 100%. That's what annoys me. That's what annoys me. I agree with that as well. That's what annoys me. I just think it's a very, very tired club now. But the thing is, not going to get on my soapbox too much, but then put your energies into trying to do something positive, like next game, join the match or something then. If that's all you want to do, come and do something positive, show your anger through numbers then, next game. How about doing that for anyone who got off a 3-0? And by the way, I'm not judging, you want to get off a 3-0, that's up to you. Yeah. I stated a bit at the end, because it's my job, and I've always done that, but show this football club that we're not prepared to take this. Don't just slink off into the night. Because my worry is, is that if we do go down, people just decide, no, we'll jack it in. Because you get that 3-0, mate. I hope it doesn't, because we're the only ones who can keep this club going. Let's be honest. Yeah. But just back to the game, less than I've got. I mean, let's have a look at less than teams. This is from the Leeds game. I mean, you know, the front line, the fans in the actual... Even the team had failed. Madison Tailmans. I mean, Tailmans has dropped off, because he's obviously, they shouldn't have catch him. He's got a crack in the oven, and he's all noggy with the VR. Fadi comes off the bench. Yeah. They've brought the fella from Shrek back into the centre back. So, you know what I'm saying? He was leaving it, panning it. You don't trust that to come with you, does he? Yeah. Incredible. They've obviously changed the goalie, because the hologram just wasn't working. That's been a major point as well, but... The worry is the wide areas for me. Yeah. Because of our full backs. And depending... Obviously, depending on who's playing full back, I don't even... Which centre back? Which centre back could play a full back, even though we've got a right back on the bench? Shaun Dyche. Yeah, Barnes... So Dyche can't play right back? Yeah. Well, I don't know. You might want to teach players to play right back. Yeah. But they've got Barnes, who I think is a really good player. Harvey Barnes on his day, and they've got Madison, who just floated around the pitch as well. So... And they've obviously Tete on the right who scored a few goals since coming in, so... Yeah. And, like I said, from last night, my worry are full backs, because... Why not play right back at right back? Do you know what I mean? Like, why not... Why not show? Teams are targeting us at full backs. Gov 3 against Newcastle. Jesus Christ. I mean, Jesus Christ. Michael Hengel wasn't... No, Michael Hengel's terrible. Let's get it right. Listen. I'm not... Never am I prepared to post he full. But Jesus Christ. Yeah. The left back is abysmal. It's terrible. And you play... Listen, by the way, I'm not saying... Paterson's the best player there. No, no, no. But what he is, is an actual right back. Yeah. He's an actual right back who is going to have to lane the position. Ben Gov 3 can't play. I prefer my left back, because he has to concentrate, and he does his job. But right back, Jesus Christ. I think he said, after the game, Colmham's... Yeah, yeah. He said Seamus is not far away. Yeah. But whether that's enough. Seamus looked like there was a shot of him in the stand last night. And he looked like he was like, he wanted to get out there, because so... Let's hope he... Let's be honest, he's been our best player this season. Oh, yes. He's got 30, he's got 34. Let's just have a look at the evidence from the Newcastle game. Yeah, I mean, straight away, straight away, Godfrey out. Keen out. Personally, I'd bring Keen meaner, but you think... I think you're going Cody, Monday. Yeah. I mean... As bad as... Just before Keen coming in, Keen had a few rough games, didn't he? But I actually looked at the team, I said, I was just a void of anyone on the pitch shouting at people. It's the void of... Anything, though, isn't it? You know what I mean? And that's the reason I bring Keen back. Is there any other changes you'd make? Because... Like you said, Paterson right back, Cody in for Keen, and I'd probably take O'Nan out, you know. I wasn't... For Ghani, Jamie Ghani. Yeah. Yeah, he was crap, wasn't he? I just think the minute you get to Bucking, you might as well take him off. Do you know what, though? Do you know what I'd be tempted to do? Genuinely. I'd be tempted to put O'Wilby in the middle and put Gary out, and as much as... That is... As much as I'm not a massive favourite of either of them, that's what I'd be tempted to do. I'd be tempted to put O'Wilby in there and just be a little bit more attacking. Yeah. Because this is the major downfall of Shaun Dice, and it's not his fault, by the way. No. The tools he's got are absolutely abysmal. But... And he has been dealt a terrible hand, but at some point we're going to have to go... We're going to have to sign. We are going to have to sign. You said it the other day. But it should have been in Palace. Yeah. After an hour, we should have gone for it. Yeah. You can't... Draws aren't going to do any... I know it's... I understand the Prince, I listen to him, and I understand what he's saying. His principles are right. Get what he's saying. Yeah. It's not... There's no point, like, throwing it all. I'll do it, but they're all at once. But surely he's seen enough of the 17 now to go, I might as well. Yeah. Because before, you know it. Put it this way, we've had more... Yeah. We've had... How many goals we can see, the under Shaun Dice? Being relatively... Conservative. Shocking. Absolutely shocking. Seven and the last two home games, I know. Let's have a look at Lester's main man, James Madison. He'll get a big move in the summer. 25 games. Nine goals. Seven assists. I think he'll end up... 2.4. He passes per game. He's a top player. Yeah. He's got a top tan. Yeah, he's a really good player. He'll probably end up at something like Newcastle. I think if Rodgers went to Spares, maybe. Spares. Maybe. He's what Spares needs. He's what? A lot of teams need. Newcastle's a ship. Yeah, he opens... He opens... Yeah. Opposition up. He's a good runner. You know, we had an opportunity to get him, obviously, from Norwich, and we already had Guilfrey Sigurdsson, so he felt it wasn't the right move. He was interesting. He's been great, and I think he's ready for the next big thing now. He could be the key man. You look at him, and you look at the other attacking options. It's just... Again, it's that thing of, like, if they could get their defence, right? Like Villa did. Yeah. Like Newcastle did. Newcastle did. They've got the attacking options. And it's when you look at those things and think they're ready for... Like, if they could just get the back line sorted, they could be ready, but it's going to be difficult. But it's a tough, very, very tough game. I'm not hopeful. I just... You know what? I just want to see an evidence team playing up for once. And you know what? You know, if we lose games, or whatever, or the opposition's better, or the other team... I can hold my hands up and go with just a lack of quality. What I can't deal with is players just throwing the hand in and just running around. I think that's something I was saying to me, my dad last night, actually, that's something I saw during the cap times in the 90s. Yeah. The players actually looked like they cared a bit more than this... That's it, isn't it? ...than this... this crop of players. Like, last night, I was looking around, I was thinking, there's just no belief in this side at all, and no one's running around there. You know what? I didn't... They were even, like, just boot one of their players, because it's going volume or something. There was none of that. Like, just... I think Garner was... You know what? Actually, just a Garner guy for me was the only one who could actually walk away. Last night, with a bit of... I mean, walking's the correct word, because he was not going to deal with it. No, he's... I'm not going to have a go at Garner. I think he's... He's one of the only players who's been consistent, so he's where the people are going, all right? I agree. There you go. Let us know your thoughts in the comments. It's a huge game. It's a huge game, but, you know, I'm not going to go overboard the bar, because the simple fact is, I don't want to pile pressure on these precious little footballers. You don't seem to be able to deal with it. And past... If there was any part of me that was sympathetic to them, it's pasty. The Newcastle game, everything was set up for them to just wake hard and run round, and they didn't. They were pathetic. So, there you go. If you want to hear more about that, check out the fan away from the Newcastle game. There you go. Thank you for watching. Make sure to give this video a like, subscribe if you haven't already. For more great videos, Garner's over on ToffeeTV. The link is in the description. It's coming up on the screen right now. Bye.
