 Welcome to Toffie TV. It is the match preview. Arsenal vs Everton. Yes, there is a game of football this week. We'd all forgotten because of these despicable people. These being one of them, a disgrace to football should be kicked out of the Premier League, kicked out of the Champions League and forgotten about what they won't be. I was devastated when they took out of the Premier League's office. I was absolutely gutted. I was just going on that rant. No doubt the rant needs to be gone on. It is, but it's a disgrace. The whole thing with the Super League thing, what's really bad is, and I've said this before, they didn't canvass the supporters at all, and that's the thing. No, but what I mean is, I imagine they've just gone ahead with it and yet the fans are going, this is not for me, like Arsenal fans, they'll just be like, what's going on here? I mean, but unfortunately they'll pass. Why would you canvass the fans though? Because in this country, let's be honest and we're implicit in this, as a fan or as a channel. We have let everyone do anything they want to us. We're playing on a Friday night, right? For a start. We've played the last four games, two Friday nights and two Monday nights. That doesn't happen in other countries. The fans don't allow that to happen because they do. This is what made me laugh. Yes, they win this when I've seen Friday nights in the place, Monday night in the place. No, I know, but I'm somewhere like even having a schedule like that, they just wouldn't let it happen. What I mean is that in this country, where loving the fact that fan power did this, fan power in other countries make sure that the ticker place is achieved. And the games are at acceptable times and you can have beer in your seats and you can have safe standing. That's what fan power does. In this country, if you were known in these clubs, you would think these fans have left football just to destroy itself for the last 20 odd years and haven't said nearly 30 years and haven't said one word about anything. Why would this be any difference? We've all done it. We all go and we all grumble and we put up on Twitter, but hardly any fan. Some have. Some amazing fans out there got out there and made sure that the way tickets were 30 quid. I mean, you want a 20, but the ender were 30. They've done amazing things. There are a lot of fans out there who've done that. But if we all got together like we have on this, if we were all outraged by the things we should be outraging football, which is the fact that a lot of clubs, again these clubs, people can't even take their kids to the match. They can't take their kids to the match because they're simply priced out because they don't want kids in the seats they want for playing in adults. So that's why these people thought they could do it because they've been sitting there going, these idiots will let us get away with anything. We can sell a burger. These sell a burger at the end of the 17 pound. 17 pound for a burger. So clearly someone buys those burgers. We go into the grounds and people are buying an ale for like £4 or whatever. I mean, it's even worse. It's over the road. This is why these people thought they could get away with it because they've been getting it away with it for years. Going to Chelsea and paying £75 for a ticket. People do it. Going to London and paying that. You know, away fans used to have to go and pay £75 to watch Everton play at Arsenal and they wonder why they think they can get away with it. That's why they thought they can get away with it because we are mugs, me included, you included. All of us are mugs bar a little set because we have been letting them get away with it for years. We have a little grumble to ourselves, but we don't actually do anything. And now is the time actually to stand up to these people and go, we've got you on the run now because we have us football fans. We've got them on the run. So let's keep pushing and let's start pushing for actual things that will benefit us, which is cheaper tickets. Say standing, being able to drink in your seat, being able to take your kids to the game. That's what we should be going for now. So that's why they did it. There you go in a nutshell. So let's just destroy them. The nation wants us to destroy them, Baz. The nation wants us to destroy them. So we've got to answer that call of the nation, Baz. Can we do it? Very good at answering calls at me. We've got such a great history of winning big games that we've needed to. Of course we can win. Arsenal are in great form. They watch them sometimes and they look awful. They look like us. We look the same at that time. Like they're not sure what they're doing. So it's a great opportunity. You've never won at the Emirates and we might not have a better opportunity to do it. There's no crowd there. Not that that ever plays a part in. There's 60,000 there normally. There's no fans there. We haven't won. They're not in great form. And it's a big game. If Arsenal win, they go above everything. So if Everton win, you put six points between it then and there's only tell them you have five games to play then you're starting to put the distance between the team as well. That's a vital thing for Everton. Well, in terms of the week, it hasn't actually been a terrible week. OK, our draw wasn't great in space. But the likes of Liverpool draw them with Leeds, Chelsea draw them with Brighton. We're the first game of the weekend. Tottenham are playing. So they're playing. They're playing the league cup. So if we can win this game over the weekend then get ourselves back up there. Close that gap with the teams who are the teams above us or keep pace with those teams above us. That's what we've got to do. We've got to keep up with pressure. I know a lot of people think it's over. Well, I'm not going to say it's over if we get beat. I mean, these are all above us. So straight away, you are making it harder for yourself straight away. But what's shown this week by those results Liverpool going to Leeds, Chelsea, Brighton, etc. is that those teams above us aren't running away. Newcastle got beat by Westam at the weekend. Those teams aren't running away from us. So there is still an opportunity to, you know, it sounds stupid because we think, oh, we didn't draw, we drew the last three games. If we'd won one of those games, we'd be, but no one's running away from us. No one's making it impossible. Leicester haven't been winning games and I'm not saying we're going to catch Leicester. But there's huge, huge incentive to go out and win this game. And I just wonder whether it would be a bit like last week where it was like, I always felt like last week against Bears. It was like Carla was almost saying, go on lads, go on, go on, go on, do it. We haven't got time now to be, you know, being ultra defensive. We've got to let them play and see what comes of that. And I wonder whether it would be similar in this game because these haven't been great and these have been defensive at home. You know, these have tried to keep the opposition out rather than have a full-blown go with them. So even though, you know, they've done well, they're doing well on the Europa League, but I just wonder whether Carla would just say to Everton, we're running out of games, we've got to win this game. Because I felt like that was like that, the space game. I felt like, seeing it when he made, you know, he made the show, we took Tom Davis off and brought Josh King on. That idea of like, we've got to win this game, actually. And I just wonder whether we'll start with that kind of attitude. Well, we've got to. There's no point. We're in a situation now where we do need to start winning games. You know, Tottenham are playing salt at the time they called this Tottenham. They're about to play saltampton. So, Everton will have two games in a hand on Spades, but if saltampton could nick a point, of course, Spades haven't got a manager, Harry Kane's not playing. So saltampton have got a chance to nick a draw there. If saltampton has a nick a draw against Tottenham, Everton would be two points behind Spades with two games in a hand. You know, and that's what we have to do. But if Tottenham win, it's all about us. We've got to keep pace. You've just said it then. It's keeping pace with the others. You know, Villa reply in Man City. City was to be filler and we could win a rassle, and then you're pushing them further down. Cos that's what you'd have to do at first. You'd have to try and get the gap between people who've achieved and yet and see where you are in Everton. Seven games to go. It's no point just going, well, we'll keep getting a draw there, and a draw there. We've got to win it some stays otherwise we're not going to get any chance of Europe anyway. And I know a lot of blues will think there's no chance of Europe now anyway. But Sunday might end Europe. It's time to beat Man City in the league or final then. Seventh is gone, so then it's finishing in the top six. We had four points behind them. We feel with a game in hand as well. It was sixth. Somehow we're still in there even though we haven't won for something like six games or whatever it is. We'll say it's six games that we haven't won for. And we're somehow still in the race. When we come off that West Bromwyn, remember that they had the goldest lad, the injuries there, and we won the game, we went fourth, we were bouncing. And then I'm adding to saying that another six games are going to go by you one on one, but you're still going to be in the race. We've just been like, sure, but we are. So we've got to, you're absolutely right, we've got to go there. And we've just got to go for it. And all right, maybe, I don't know, is there a case for it if you can't win, don't lose it? Because obviously you'd keep Arsenal below you. I don't know though. We are going to run out of games. I know what you're saying with that, but that's right, if you just get it raw. Yes, you keep an Arsenal behind you, but you're not catching anybody. If we were seventh, then it might be slightly different. If we were seventh and Arsenal were eighth and there's the gap. But then also on that though, what we have seen this season is we have won games away from home by playing on the counter attack. So it's not like just because you're playing in a defensive manner that you are playing for a draw. We've shown this season by being defensive and playing on the counter attack that we've won games. It's just whether we need that tactic against Arsenal. Lachezet has come back into form and I know he went off last week. I don't know what his injury situation is, but a Bamiang was in hospital last week, so I don't know what his situation is. Well, we should have this week, we should have. We haven't had a confirmed obviously yet, because Carlos press conference hasn't been done. But he said last week yet he mean it'll be fit, and I'll say go on this. Fabian Delf. The big one. The big one. You know, he reckon day we're going to be fifth for this weekend. So I'm benad. All right, people can look and go benad, but at least when you look at the bench you haven't just got kids who haven't played in a minute and they're not going to come on anyway. So I've got a bench that has got Delf, benad, you know, Jerimine or Michael. I mean, really theoretically speaking, after last week Jerimine should be waltzing into our defence after the performance during the two-poop. Porwp last week was the pair of them, it was shocking. Well, actually, it was just a side bow. Peace everyone. Well, Michael Keen especially. But there's got to be some changes as well there, but you know, it's about everything going out and winning an important game. We've lost three away games all season, so we have been very strong away from home, and we have to win this game. And let's be honest, these are brittle. These are brittle. I watched them against Fulham at the weekend and he scored in the 97th minute and it was a 4-2 with his goal. He did put pressure on Fulham. I'm not sitting here going, he didn't have any chance, because he did have a lot of chances, but Fulham are wide open. Fulham, you know, they've basically thrown the brand in. Fulham, they were winning 1-0 of Philly last week with 12 minutes left and got beat. They were 1-0 up in the 97th minute and couldn't see it out. So, we're going to the Emirates at a time when Arsenal are free-flowing, free-score and playing brilliant football. It's a great opportunity to break what is a horrific record at the Emirates against Arsenal. And giving them a little bit of smack in the face for what they've done, part of what's gone on this week. Because I don't know about you, but for so many years I've respected Arsenal as a football club. He always seems to do things properly. David Dean was brilliant. He always seems to deal with the blazers. They wore blazers when the team went away. At the hybrid, they had all the marble things. The Emirates is a fantastic stadium and everything in the history, they're a brilliant respected proper football club. But the way they've acted over the last few years, and not just this has been disgusting what they've done this week, but the stuff they've done to their own fans as well, it's just been, I know the fans hate Croncher and all that. It's scandalous, but for Everton, we've just got to go there and give them a little bit of a, you know, a bloody nose and get the three points and come away. And if Everton win Friday, then I think a lot of people will have been reinvigorated then for those last six games. I think a lot of people felt last week the performance was really good. Just let down by two defensive gaps and those chances. Would you play the three again? Is that the way you'd go to? I'd probably play that to the rest of the season because I think, I mean, I definitely wouldn't play a Wobby, of course I wouldn't. I think Seamus Coleman. But then the manager's got to manage that the best way he can, he's got to look at that. And yeah, I probably would. I wouldn't have Michael Keane anywhere near it, of course. But I'd definitely, I'd definitely do that because I just think mean is just... It's like a magnet for the ball actually when the ball comes into the box. So I don't think that, I don't think he would suffer what he did, what happened last week. Listen, he's had his own mistakes. We know that on the floor page wise. He's not great. We've seen that against Arsenal last season. But anything comes in the air, he's great. And I just think, I just think that to me is the only way. We've got to play with wit and move Hammers and Rodriguez inside. We've seen the benefits of that. But that requires wit on the right. And that really can only come from Seamus Coleman playing the wing back. Because that right back, he can't get up and down. And it's pointless having a whole gate at right back. You might as well have three at the back and maybe back up Seamus with God free speed. Because that to me is the only way we can do things. We need wit on both sides. We've shown that last week. We showed it the week before. We need wit on both sides. I mean, if it is the three, then maybe the move field has to be Alan and Tom Davies. Because I can't go on as a guilty drop out. Because Hammers, you'll want in the 10-month year. Because if you've got Britsialason and Tom, if you're playing 3-1-2. I'll be honest with you. I'm not. I don't think we need to bring Tom straight back into the team. I really don't. I'd actually maybe think about doing what we did on Amfield. It worked on Amfield. Now it did. It's more of a goal threat. But maybe yet maybe play that three with Hammers in the 10-1 strike. On Amfield it was more like a 4-4-1-1. But it worked. You don't always have to put all your eggs in one basket. And they chowed that last week with Seamus. Having Seamus coming off the bench changing things. That's what the best teams do. Subs aren't this thing that your best players have blown out their ars. You bring another person up. Subs are tactical. They haven't always been like that at Everton. And when it shows the strength of your squad. I mean how many times have you looked over at the benching on? We've survived against Man City. We survived 75 minutes. I wake up to Kevin De Bruin. Do you know what I mean? If we're given Arsenal a good run around. I don't know. It's 0-0. And there's 25 minutes to go and you see Don Lindbrun up to come on. And then suddenly he changes things. And also he has been injured as well though. So it's not, you know, you think. Well if he's not fully fit obviously he would only have him on the bench anyway. And obviously Josh King be sure to come on and almost get the winner last week. Keeping me the good save in it. Let's see how much he'll knock that in. So we'll have options. But you know we've got a lot to obviously sack her for them. He's a good player. Arsenal have got good players. I know it's not very, it hasn't been very cohesive for them. That's been probably. And our test is trying to get them to play away. We simply haven't got the players to play that way. Which has been a problem for them as well. I think he's just. But they've got some good matches. I think what he's trying to do is. Build something. I mean that's always the hardest thing in football because football managers don't get the time to build things. When it goes right it can be very, very productive if you are allowed to build something. But football, and I suppose that what's been his saving grace in this season is the Europa League getting to the semi-final. That's been his saving grace in the back. You can point to that. The irony is he play Emery's team in the semi don't they think. That's what he can point to. While the league form hasn't been great. And isn't that next week as well? I'm sure it's next week. At the end of the day I mean it's not really anything to do with us. But I can see what he's trying to do. I don't know if it's coming off the way he thought it is. But I can understand what he's trying to do. It takes patience. Football doesn't have patience. It's all that remarkable silver. It's all that special and no one had patience. No, but he was horrendous though. That's what I mean. Exactly. I'm just saying he was horrendous. I'm saying Artheter has got the back-up of being in the Europa League semi-final. That's what I'm saying. But is the football he play under him is horrific? I don't watch enough of them to really comment because I find football horrendously boring. So if he's rubbish then I'm never going to watch that. Now it's their problem. I suppose the other thing is though. All this stuff will have helped Artheter out as well. Because I don't think Cronchai can go make any kind of drastic decisions at the moment. No, no, no. This has bothered Artheter a little bit of time in the old Super League. At least till the summer. Well, let's get some bright stats because you know everything do really well against Arsenal. Arsenal run beaten in the last 24 Premier League home games against Everton. They've won 20 and drawn 4 since Everton won two on a hybrid in January 1996. Everton are looking to complete the first league double over Arsenal since the 85-86 season, which is just scandalous isn't it? Proving that we usually played them away first. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This will be the 200th trough flight meeting between Arsenal and Everton. The gunners have won 98 of the 199 meetings so far more than any other side has beaten any other side in trough flight history. Arsenal have never lost in nine previous Premier League games played on Fridays. Great. Following a 2-2 draw with Spares last week Everton will become the second team to play on consecutive Fridays in the Premier League after Arsenal did so in 2004. Read Liverpool 4-2 and leads 5 now. Credill not be young. Arsenal have kept just three clean cheats at home this season with only Everton chef United and Newcastle keeping fewer. I thought we were being there something negative. Everton's last three league games have all ended level. The trophies last three four games on the run under David Moyes in 2012. Abam i angsgwrdd in three of his four home games against Everton. Guilffy Shickerton has been involved in five goals in his last seven Premier League games. Three goals and two assists as many is in his previous 23. Arsenal's Nicholas Pepe has been involved in six in 24 appearances this season compared to nine in 16 in all the other competitions. He's done better out of the Premier League. But we knew that because he's a good footballer but he has found the Premier League tough. We have him in the Europa League. They have got a lot of good footballers who just found the Premier League tough. It's such a... I criticised the Premier League for the technique of it and stuff because it is very much tough. And I'm even the best. Apart from City everybody else is quite direct than it is to be. You know, wishy-washy, technique wise. But power and pace and athleticism is what the Premier League is. Some of these footballers, not just Pepe, we've seen him at plays at our club. You know, just the good footballer. But the Premier League is just so unforgiving. Moyes Keynes flying in France. Isn't he but the Premier League? Do you see that Arsenal have had a few? Like I said, we were linked with Odegard in January and Arsenal took him. And he's done well in football. He's a good footballer. And it would be interesting to see whether he's a good player in the summer. You're right there, you've got some good footballers Arsenal and we'll have to be honest. But it's not a game that I'm scared of. But obviously you're thinking of the history where we don't do very well there. And we know that the games are just running out. So at some stage, if you're together in Europe, you're going to have to win a big game like this. But you know, the good thing finally is, Everton will be well aware of Arsenal's threats. So this isn't a game against like Crystal Palace or Brighton where it's only them. They've got pressure on them. They've got pressure on so have we. And we know that they're a big club and it's a big game. So we'll be ready for it. And it's calm we deliver because we haven't been able to in the last half of a dozen games. It's going to be interesting. It's going to be very, very interesting. It's not another Friday night game. Look at the water on that one. Maybe. Maybe.
