 Welcome to Toffy TV, it's the player ratings for Everton 1. Burnley Nill, a Boxing Day win at Godderson Park for the first time. Can you unless I may actually won a game on Boxing Day at Godderson Park, to be honest? I can't even remember it. Yeah, not a fantastic game of football, not a spectacular game. I did think we played, I thought we played really well first half, I thought we faced five minutes, I wasn't exactly sure. A lot of passing out from the goal around the back and I thought, and I haven't seen much of that recently, certainly under Duncan Vegas and that was one of the things he very much eliminated. He wanted to get the ball up the field a little bit quicker, but obviously Calamantulotti wanted to start things as he needed to go on. So a lot of possession around the box. Sometimes it looked a little bit uncomfortable, but then sometimes it got us off the pitch, it drew Burnley in and it got us off the pitch so we could break their press. And yeah, first half I thought we were really good. Made a couple of things happen, should have scored probably a couple of times. We didn't do, they came out second half and they got a little bit more control of the game. I was a little bit worried that the game was going away from us heading for another Neil Nill, but we could have put a fantastic ball into the box and Donner Carver, who provides a fantastic header. We never really looked like losing the game, they never really did anything apart from a couple of set pieces. We had 70% of the possession, shots on target, corners, everything. I think there was just a lot more. I think the manager made a couple of alterations, on the play ratings and hopefully going forward now we'll play with a lot more care and a lot more confidence that we can win games of football, but having a manager behind us and a couple of, if we can have a couple of plays to the squad, things might look a little bit different than they have been recently. Jordan Pickford, I've given a six, didn't really have anything to do. I still think, there's times he's kicking, he's kicking at times, just winds him up, how he gets it wrong. I still think he's not coming off his line quick enough to deal with things, which would help his defenders out. I really do think that. Obviously we had this strange moment when he caught the ball and he was alleged of taking it outside the area. I held the line and couldn't say it was outside the area, I had no idea. Again, weird like the VARs there, wouldn't that be a good use of VAR for stuff like that? I mean he wasn't booked and it was just a free kick, but that could have led to something serious with being a good set-piece team. He didn't have a shot to save, so it's very hard to give him a grade on that. Sheamus Coleman, I've given him a seven. I thought he played really well. I thought we'd said to be in front of him. He was a good balance there, defensively and attack on wise. It was just, I think, doing it and letting him down was his choices when he got in the box. I mean there was also some strange decision-making at times defensively as well. There was one where he could have just given back to the goalkeeper and for some reason tried to run down the defensive line with it and he could have gone himself and done an awful lot of trouble. But yeah, I thought he was pretty solid. I think when the defensive, the attack on responsibility isn't necessarily there. Having someone strong and powerful in front of him, I think that really helped him. So it was nice to see him back to having a good performance. So a seven from him. I look at Dean on the other side, I've given a six. Again, you can still tell that he's struggling a little bit with that injury, not 100% fit. I think it shows with... I think he's just doing what he needs to do at the moment, without doing the extra little bit. Not really getting in a lot of good crossing areas and when he does the knock. I don't know, he's just sort of playing within himself and if he has got an injury you can understand why. He's just trying to get through the games. But defensively did his job and yeah, I've given him a six. Yeah, I mean I've given him a seven. Again, solid, had to be in a game like this against a tough opposition. Threat down the other end, I think we nearly scored off one of his headers or certainly we should have scored off one of his headers in the first half early on, which would have made the game a lot more comfortable. But these games are always tough for defenders. We know the way they play, how they scored a lot of their goals and I thought he dealt with it quite well. On the floor as well, so I've given him a seven. Mason Hoggates have given him a seven as well again. Quite solid. I think a lot of game time recently has really helped him come along. Playing that move feels like it's helped him come along. It's given me a different perspective on the game. That may not have always been there, but again really solid, he's like the little, he's like, mean as the, obviously more like the stopper and he's the little bit of class that he needs at the back. Looks very comfortable on the ball. He's good in the air as well, likes to touch her as well. He's got a lot of composure and I think just about smoothing off those rough edges that have been there. I think he's going in the right way. I think he's becoming a really good player. Mason Hoggates is just getting his stack consistency, those levels of consistency. Normally sometimes in games like this he falls down to the fact of how physical it is, but I think that's changed recently as well. I think that's gone up a notch. So giving him a seven, which you're going to hear a lot by the way. Delth, I've given him a seven as well. I thought again, really level performance, consistent performance. Kept it. Looks a little bit fitter, which is good. Got through the game. Keeps it nice and simple. At times maybe, I don't know, not too simple, but sometimes his passes on that. I think if he gets fitter and gets a little bit more consistent that he'll try and take on a lot more crossfiel passes. But I think at the time being he's just keeping it nice and simple, keeping sharp, keeps the game moving as fast as possible, so he has to get his out of trouble. I think it's just that those levels of those fitness levels with him that he's got to get through. But certainly, I thought he was nice and steady today giving us something, that little bit of a comfort blanking in my field. Alongside in Guilty Six, giving him a seven as well. I thought he was really good first half. I think he just tiled off second half. On the ball off the back four, maybe something the manager has seen. That possibly he could play that role. It's just a very tallying way of looking things. Putting that number 10 in front of the back four rather than behind the striker once they've slowed down a little bit. Because if you're a good player and you've got good control and you're good on the ball and your passing ranges are good, you do a lot of damage from that area. That's maybe where he sees him playing in front of the back four or back three, whatever. In a pretty fluid system. I thought he did all right. He went missing a little bit in the second half but first half, I thought he played well. I said to be I've given him an eight. He's actually my man of the match. I thought goal forward, bring it again, defensively, good again, provided the cross for the goal. Never stops. Great engine. He's a great player. He's a great player. Never stops. Great engine on him. For me, I think this is a player we should be looking to tie up as soon as possible to bring in another player. I think he's got that ability in him to play at the right back or right side of midfield. Strength, power, great crosser, decent passer. Just always on the front foot wanting to attack. I think the Premier League suit him massively personally. I think it's suit him. He's someone I would definitely be looking to making a payment. I think he could continue that role on the right-hand side as well, in front of Seamus Coleman. Just gives us that double bubble whatever you want to call it. Coleman can go past him and he can drop in. I think there's a lot of awareness there. I think he's a man of the match today. Bernard, I've given a seven and a half. Again, first half performance of what was excellent. Tailed off a little bit in the second half and obviously got sub. Played a lot more central today. You could tell if the manager wants a playmaker and he sees Bernard maybe as that playmaker. But it was sort of drifting in from the side and coming into the centre. The centre of the park was very fluid at the time. Again, go back to that first half and I thought Bernard really benefited from it. There's one in the first half, lovely little runner. We had this shot blocked and it was one of the two times. We really should have scored for me and that point I was worried that we wouldn't score. But I think that flexibility really suited him. He looked a little bit stronger as well today. He looked a little bit fitter coming off the back of that injury and maybe not got fully back into it but there's a little bit more there today. So it would be really interesting to see how that progresses and how I want you a lot to use this and going forward. If he thinks he needs that number ten or something like that rather than someone like Sigarton, someone who has got those legs to break forward and skip forward and play in the little holes and the gaps in between the lines. So play well Bernard today. I've given him a seven and a half. With Charleston, I've given him a seven. I thought he was one of a wakeman performance. I was a little bit disappointed the amount of times he tried to take on their defenders and stopped at the first tackle. I thought, I thought there were too many times where he should have just knocked the ball the head and run onto it but he's trying to take them on far too much a close quarter and I think he gets frustrated by that and goes back and tries and tries and tries again. So I thought it was more of a wakeman performance. I thought he worked hard, worked really hard without maybe carving out too many chances. But that's a Charleston for you. That's what he does. He's a very sort of untypical Brazilian kind of player what you'd think people would imagine. If he's not playing well in the game he will put a shift in for you and we've seen no no issue from the fact that the manager you love or whatever has gone and the Duncan Fakes and Callow on his first game he's worked really, really hard and we got subbed but that's because of how much he probably worked and us just needed some difference and again he played as that split striker again almost and playing in between the lines and finding space and he did he found it to pick up the ball it's just that when he picked up the ball he just didn't execute it well enough so I've given him a 7 I've given him a 7.5 maybe unlucky not to have a higher score but I just wanted to say the beat to make sure he played my man of the match again for most of the game he was all down to hard work had a couple of off chances probably should have done better in the first half which he again missed time in the jump which we saw against Arsenal as well running channels trying to make it hard for their players intelligent hold up play intelligent flichons but his goal was magnificent fantastic cross and he just threw himself at it very classic Everton number 9 style header reminiscent of a Grame Sharp Duncan Ferguson and Andy Gray Bob Lathred any striker that we've ever loved who's played number 9 that was a goal they would love and it nestled lovely at the post and rolled into the other one it looked something special about when you hit the bar or the post it just gives a goal but since Duncan Ferguson has had more control over this team Dominant Cavallun has become twice the player he really has the aggression the work rate, the hunger it's all 8 and the goals he's got the goals as well or the assists so fantastic from Dom he just has to keep that up and remember that Everton number 9 will not go back into any not bad habits he was just a bit soft beforehand just a bit soft and now we're starting to see someone who actually believes filling him with confidence he believes he is number 9 Everton number 9 and that's magnificent to see so I've given him a 7.5 the substitutes Tom Davis a 6 come on Tom Davis probably should have given him another point for his magnificent blue suit that he wore on Christmas Day but I've given him a 6 and Moise Keane I've given a 6 as well the manager is going to fill him with a lot of confidence now I actually didn't know where he'd scored I was just thinking it would have been lovely if that had been Moise Keane even if he did the post and rolled back and he got a tap in it would have been lovely for him now on the pitch he'll come off the bench and the manager will be saying to him that's what you need to do give me a bit more manager probably sitting down speaking to him a lot of all so I've given him a 6 and he'll woke up probably wasn't on well he wasn't on long enough to get a score so I just haven't given him one so there you go these might be my player let me know whether you agree or disagree I didn't think anyone had a stinker of any sort today so and we're pretty much the level we needed to be what today proved is if you stay organised and I know Carl-Anshalt he's meant to defend after the game if you're organised and you're not giving away silly goals or silly set pieces even though we nearly gave one away early on I think we had one clear off the line Heather you can grind out these results and we've said it recently is that if you start drawing the game that you would have lost and then start winning the game that you would have drawn up the table very very quickly because it's not a Premier League full of really really good teams there's a lot of organised and barely proved that today they've won I think the last two games and nearly come away with the points today cos they're really really organised without being anything else I mean they're horrific to watch horrific did you bang it long and rely on set pieces winning a file for them is like nearly something to get a penalty and they find a mess I mean again I said it against Leicester the fans are mess as well as the Arsenal fans anyone comes to Godderson and sings about feed the Scousers or in your full slums and all that absolute no beds that's all I'm going to say your town is just a hole and you're giving us grief you have absolute mess have a look at your own before you have a look at anywhere else you'd absolutely die to live in a city like ours you tramps this has been the player ratings let me know if you agree or disagree make sure to check out my glad to see reaction and buzzers videos don't forget if you haven't subscribed please do, it's Christmas, subscribe give this video a like give us a click the bell for notifications and you'll know exactly when the videos come out if you want more videos honestly I promise you it's worth it join us over on page and thanks for watching I'll see you later
