 Welcome to Toffy TV. It is my take-aways, three take-aways from Crystal Palace Nill Everton Nill at Sellers Park today. The first one I'm going to start with is Jeri Mina and Michael Gean. I thought they were both very good today. Defended everything they needed to. Both looked decent in possession. It was difficult conditions at Sellers Park. Very windy, swale and wind as well. And for those two who, you know, people are not happy with us as a partnership. Need to remember that last, this was supposed to be the partnership last summer. We bought Jeri Mina to partner Michael Gean. Kateryma came in as cover and forced his way into it. So Mark O Silver unsure will be quite, will be very pleased the way those two played. Yes, we got caught a couple of times but I don't think there was anything to do with either of those. I think the one where Barman gets caught on the break very quickly, the one criticism I have of Jeri Mina is play the man. The man's gone, don't try to stop and put your arm up. But I don't know whether he got there anyway to be honest, but don't do that. Play the thing. Mason Holgate guilty of this at times. You have to play what in front of you. Don't try to play off try. But I thought he added everything. He was decent in possession. Good tackling. Michael Gean the same. Defended really well. So if we can keep those two fit, you know, maybe the worry of not having that, you know, bringing in that extra centre back will, will dissipate a little bit. And as we, you know, and obviously if it doesn't, we can address that in January. But I thought a good start on those two to gain a clean sheet away from home in the Premier League as well is a decent start point for those two. The second thing I want to talk about today and take away from the game is John Philip Barman's performance. He played for around 50 minutes, you know, a couple of minutes injury time at the end of the first half and then four minutes injury time at the end of the second half. And I thought in general, he did okay. The problem that he's going to have, and he needs to learn this very quickly, is you haven't got time to stride with the ball and look around as if, you know, I've got all the time in the world. He looked comfortable in possession. One or couple of tackles decent passing, but he's got to realise that in the Premier League, it's fast and frenetic. And when you break the play up, you've got to expect that someone is on your shoulders. If you, if you turn, you know, you do a half turn and no one's around, fine, but got to expect to be tackled. Don't be hesitant in what you're doing. And he got caught a couple of times and we ended up having to, one of them could have really cost us a goal. So he's got to learn, you know, that very quickly, but this is a lad. He's only been at Goddison for just over a week. And the same fellow, when he was asked about what he'd be ready for today, he said no. He said to think it's a bit surreal. He's only been saying him back, you know, after the Afghan for a week or something. So, you know, we'll probably see a better version of him next week in the week after. Listen, he's got all the attributes to be a fantastic player. So, I know there's a lot of doom and gloom merchants on social media, but for me, you can't, you know, he's going to be a good player. He can't be judging him too early. And once he's up to speed, I think we'll see the best of him. And, you know, that's where we go from that, you know, give the lad a chance. And finally, the final takeaway from today is that we've got to be more ruthless in the final third. You know, it's, this game to me just mirrored the game in April. And I know it was essentially the same team. You know, more or less that played at Selleish Park in Aeblans, Rhyw Nill. But it's frustrating because the amount of times we got into good positions within the final third and the final ball, terrible, wrong decisions, or people not shooting. You know, Bernard, who was our most creative player today, looked as though he was the one that was going to run lock it. Had won early on where Luca Dean goes on and over. And he cuts in, just shoot. So, I had to play a reverse ball and the opportunity is gone. Just get it out your feet and hit it. If the keeper parries it, we might get a tap in. Just little things like that. Just not, not quick enough in making decisions in the final third. You know, Retialas and hesitated a few times when in good positions. Luca Dean, you know, to me, didn't have a great game as well. So he's not up to speed. We know that. But the other thing with that is that we're going to improve on me in those areas with more training, playing his Premier League games. We've got Moise Keane to come in, come on for 28 minutes today. He'll get sharp, so will Retialas, and so will Bernard. The game's gilfier, I thought, stunk the place out today. We'll get him to a better level. And we've also got Alex Oboby to come in, as well, he's a very attacking player. So, you know, our options are there. We've just got to be better at what we're doing. It's okay. You know, we look like a good side. We control the game. But if you haven't got people in that final third, if you're not clinically nothing, a final third, or you're not creating enough opportunities, games like that will slip through your fingers. And that's essentially what's happened today. But, you know, we're drawing the game now and we've got a point and it's on to Waffford now next Saturday. Another week's training, Moise Keane, you know, Oboby in that training, as well, Baman another week for him. And hopefully, we'll be a lot sharper next weekend. Hopefully, Andre Gomez, it was just a precaution. Hopefully he's not going to be off for too long. Get Fabian Delbach, as well. And the squad, you know, get it, looks a little bit healthier, as well. So, we're drawing it now, but there might be take away from day one, Crystal Palace in 11.
