 Welcome to ToffeeTV, it is the match preview, Nottingham Forest vs Everton, in a massive game now isn't it, to become a massive game, I know it would have been a big game anyway but again it is another huge game, Everton's first away game since we were given our ten point deduction, but obviously playing a team that a couple weeks ago, even if we still had the ten points we'd be looking at this game going, great opportunity to get above one of the teams around us, but now you look at these games and you just think to yourself, these are the ones that we've got to start getting points off, and before, basically before, and these were the games we were getting something out of, so it would be interesting for us to see if we keep going with that, we're still doing the good things away from home that have been getting us the points and the wins. Yeah, I mean the players and the manager would be hopefully working on that basis, like the manager said in his press conference park, the ten point thing, put it to one side, forget about the lead table for now, think about the form you're in, I think I've had one more game for us this season or if they haven't done the same as them, so we know where we should be really in the lead table and that gives us the opportunity to close some points back on these now then because we were around them or just above them, they're a strong side of home, we know that but they did lose last weekend against Brighton, so we've got to use that to our advantage and we have been decent away under Shaun and Dyche, we're better away than we are at home, currently, go and do it, big game, go and get a result in it because ultimately for the players and the manager, it's about winning games with footy. Yeah, I think obviously with it being an away game, a lot of that emotion is going to be or has to be put to the side, obviously last Sunday was very emotive at Goodison Park, obviously the fans showed the feelings, we all showed our feelings and that has to be put to one side, now there is a game of football where no one cares, no one cares about us losing ten points, seems like for us to be made up, makes their life a bit more comfortable for the rest of the season, these are the ones where we've got to see that real reaction, is it affecting players, did last Sunday affect players, well that's gone now, everything plays and I've got to knuckle down and as you just said, they show exactly what they've been showing this season, getting into games early, staying into in the games away from home, hopefully coming out with the three points in, for us yet it's not an easy place to go, I think the last home win was against Aston Villa who obviously have been in great form, they've only got three home wins this season, I mean it's obviously more than we've got at home but they've only got three home wins, obviously last season it was what kept them up and we've just got to go there haven't we and put the pressure on them, make them feel like they're in a little bit of a fight, like they're in a little bit of trouble because as I said I think they've only won one game since September and that was against Villa, lost Brighton recently, Luton-Claude, back at 2-2 draw, which at the time I was fuming about and the week after I wasn't fuming about it and now I'm fuming again about it, that's how horrible this season's been in the last couple of weeks but these are the games we've got to win these games haven't we, we've got to make sure we don't lose these games because you know without having to go at your own dice, apart from the Arsenal game, his first game and the Brighton game await, we haven't done too well, we've been comfortably beaten by most of the teams who are in and around the top six, it's these games that we've shown obviously more in and these are the games where we we've got to be getting the points and finding those wins that we hope will get us away from where we shouldn't be really. Yeah I mean these are the opportunities like I said in general since the managers come in, we've been quite solid away from home, we've looked good, we've done well this season haven't we, one at Brentford, you know one at West Ham, a couple of real solid performances in those games, one at Crystal Palace, you know so we've done quite well particularly late, one at Villa in the Cup, so we have gone away and given a decent account of ourselves, obviously this was a fixture last season, we should have won on the day at the City Ground, we drew 2-2 but we should have put the games to bed and we didn't and obviously they scored a late equaliser but it will be a tough game, they're a great crowd, they're solid at home but they're not in great form in that and obviously you know they've lost I won't need to forward, I haven't used, there was a big threat and big powerful strike, got Chris Wood as well of course, he's another one but for Everton we've just got to go and dig in like we did at the Palace but play with that same freedom we played, we were playing with a little bit more freedom of late which is why we were winning games, I think we were quite tense against United because of the emotion, whatever and I've just said it before and the risk of repeating myself, we have somehow just got to forget about the league, forget about the 10 points, keep yourself in that mindset that you're 13th, 14th and play with that freedom and trying to catch teams above you, I don't know whether you can but that's what you have the right for because that's what we were doing and who knows if we get a few of those points back it'll help even further but this is a chance to reduce the points between Forrest and Everton, big game, tough game but is it winnable absolutely? Yeah I mean it's a mindset you can't really and a lot of players won't understand and obviously fans don't understand that either if there aren't too many plays you can say to well you were heading towards mid table and the next week you weren't you were in the bottom three there's not many plays you can speak to and go well how do you understand that mindset because not many have been in that in that position so it must be really difficult for them it's really easy isn't it to say I'll just keep doing what you're doing forget about where you are in the league but they can't because they're human beings it is their job and suddenly extra pressure is being put on them so I think it's it's it's easy for us to say that isn't it you know just do what you've been doing but when the added pressure and the added pressure comes from the outside obviously you know this game's half five kickoff on on TV you know that's all we're going to be talking about that's all that's all we we already know we've seen the press conference with your advice in the first question is oh what about these possibilities of extra points to deduction and you're like well it's a bit of a it's not a not in story it's a bit of a well that could affect anybody but you've thrown on our toes and suddenly the scene you know this isn't this this isn't going away is it it's not going away the questions aren't going to go away until certainly till um we have the appeal and then we'd have to wait for the new books to go through as well so it's it's it just feels like it's hanging there all the time it's in the back of it's in the back of my mind all the time and I'm sure as a player it'll be difficult as well but I suppose you just got to switch off on that haven't you yeah but they can do something about it we can't all weekend they was watching and back them and worry about it all day day the ones in the middle of it they can affect it and affect it by going and winning the game you know they'd have taken the chances on Sunday against United they'd have won the game it could have been three one up a half time a good decision and that was it that's when the game changed he came out second half didn't well he didn't really come out second half and before they knew it they were two nailed down because of a penalty decision well we've got to go to the weekend and when we get those opportunities we've got to take them we take them chances at the weekend and win the game they've done their bit you know the lawyers and everything else will have to do their bit on the appeal but all the players and the manager can do is focus on what's in front of them so your diet is your manager that doesn't get too low and he doesn't get too high and I imagine that has been the mantra I think it's fine certainly this week United game is slightly different there was a lot of anger emotion around that game it might have been difficult for the players to I don't know I don't really want to give them an excuse because I still think they could they performed well enough in the first half to get something out of the game and they would be low par second half and got punished for it so this one we've just got to be on it the fans will be on it and they've just got to see an opportunity for a team that even though all of a sudden now we're second to bottom we've won more games than the bottom three you know the bottom three the bottom four put together so all the shame has remounted them so we've got it in our mind setting well we're actually closer to nottingham forest than we are to Burnley because of the wins the way we were playing I mean if we do that and chase the game but at this rate the ten points are being suspended you'd be going into this game thinking we can beat these hmm chance to move away even further from them if not get a draw will the same applies yeah if you can't win don't lose yeah keep just chipping away at those you know keep staying in such but I think the manager and the coaching staff will be saying this is an opportunity these aren't flying right now and this is an opportunity to maybe catch them yeah no absolutely absolutely right let's have a little look at it some of the stats ahead of this game this saturday the second of december 5 30 p.m. everton will play nottingham forest at the city ground in nottingham this will be digest second trip to the city grounds everton manager with the previous meeting taken place in march of this year ending in a 2-2 draw with goals from the corey and demyre gray for everton and a brace from current spurs forward brennan johnson in the premier league everton have met nottingham forest 12 times with six games ending in a win for the toffees four wins for forest and two draws 50% of everton wins against forest have been at city ground although the last time everton won there was september 1998 a 2-0 win with two goals from duncan furguson this season everton have won four games drawn to and lost seven they currently sit 19th after a 10 point deduction nottingham forest currently sit 15th three wins four draws and six losses nottingham forest top scorer this season so far is tywo amoni with four goals although he is currently out injured with a groin injury everton's top scorer in the premier league is abdelaide acori with four goals who again scored the last time the two teams met in the premier league the two teams have only met twice since 1999 and both games have ended in a draw the goal um as we mentioned you know i'd mentioned earlier they are without the top goal scorer but that front three does look does look obviously a bit of a threat doesn't it obviously you've got um gibbs white on one side and you've got obviously anti-alangar on the other side the player that we obviously look to get in me as well do you think um do you think that might be one of those players where in in the future we look at and go we missed out on one there because he has he's done all right this season hasn't he um he's done all right and obviously his stats showed that he's an improving player and obviously he's gone there from manchester united and looks like he's got something to prove yeah well we wanted him didn't he and he chose forest over everton because i think at the end of the day we were a little bit unsettled i think they wanted to bring him in and you look at his stats day you know 13 games three goals and next year 1.35 so he is over performing from that your three assists and his expected assists i think something like 1.55 or something like that um so he's over performing on both his goals and you can see his heat map there his goals and his assists but he's he's fast and that's what the manager wanted to bring in as well so that'll certainly kevin fello wanted that and that would give us a bit of balance on both sides a bit of pitch but he is playing off the left for forest and you know we've already got two that like to play out there and a third one who plays on the right who doesn't mind playing on the left so we've brought him in we've had like four players for the left and on on the right but he's quick and he's direct and we'll have to look out for him and it'll be interesting to see who the manager chooses at right back because obviously as he owns having a little bit of an up and down time if i'm being kind to him at the moment sheaim is calling is available for this one he's trained all week he was sub against united knight and paterson of course played with scotland and came off the bench last week late on last week the manager was last to bar him in his press conference and basically just said he's got to keep doing what he's doing he's the future so maybe maybe that's where the change will come maybe sheaim is calling and they'll come in at right back but then you do have to look around nail angers pace but then colman generally does well when he's up against the winger he just has to concentrate on because i don't see him putting paterson in even though paterson probably yeah i do i do find yeah i i do find it a little bit strange i just i understand the manager's trying to get it trying to get us into a place where it's not there's a little bit of experience there's a little bit of youth and there's a little bit in the middle but i just looked at that last young situation and this we see some get you're right he is up and down some games he's been i'm in kiston palace he was fine there was no issues but when he's playing against pace you can order you can order you write the script you really can't order you like this he's lost he's lost that bit it's the reaction time in the reaction time yeah it's up there not down there it's it's and you see that one like ganacheo last week when he skipped when he skipped past them and he just he doesn't have any other clue what to do but just boot the player whereas i don't think sheaim is like you mentioned there i don't think sheaim is does that i think sheaim is getting himself in a better position because he knows he hasn't got the pace to react in a certain way so he almost shapes in a certain way whereas actually young might still think he's got that base the pace and he might have that base the pace and that might be great when you're on a bit of grass and it's like me versus you and it's a straight but it's that reaction of when someone does something a little bit tricky and that's my worry again is that we saw them get sent off against manchester against the pulsar we saw them give away a penalty against manchester he could have been off couldn't he again that reaction time and i just i look at that and think there's got to be times in the games where the manager has to look at the situation a little bit earlier i thought last sunday should have gone off if not half time he should have just gone off the minute he gave the penalty away and just said right we're too near down we need to change this for us and let's get paterson on to start getting up and down and take a few more risks and i do there is always that thing when you when you have managers and you think we're at the blind spots and and all this and all managers do have blind spots they pick players that you don't want them to pick and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't but i do also think there's this games where the manager has to have a little look at it and think is this the game for him will it will we get away with that in this game of course he's on four yellows as well actually young so if he was to pick up a yellow in this game then obviously he'd miss the new castle game so you've got to make that change um but it's going to be it's going to be an interesting one let's just have a look at the rest of the evident team from last sunday as well um a little bit of a doubt over domino carvalhoom for this game obviously we know on that it's not going to be biff for this game so beto do we maybe if there's any kind of doubt over domino carvalhoom do we look to put beto in the manager said he's 30 someone fell on his knee the day before the game last week and they weren't sure so they left them out to precaution obviously with a lot of games do you think this is a game that you might go let's just leave dom it's freezing cold that does not help the muscles it's freezing cold um maybe give beto a start because he's he's ready to go okay maybe has some shown loads yeah coming off the bench but maybe this is a game you go no i'd be better to mix it up with with all these games coming up well if there's a doubt over dom then you can't play him can you just we've not done it without nana yeah the minute you've i mean the still scratch me had why nana played against bernie i still can't understand for the life of me and then he missed the writing game at home which was a very winnable game and he wasn't available because he was feeling it before the bernie game and that was a cup game which the dresser garner gave you the play then well hey how it's been done so therefore for this one with domino carvalhoom i understand why they've made and trained inside it's absolutely yeah absolutely and therefore what's the point if it's feeling tight and it might be you know they'll obviously make that decision as close to kickoff as possible but if there's any doubt we have got so many games coming up play beto and have chimity on the bench chimity's scoring goals for portigone the 20s came on look lively and she might have for whatever he was on 10 minutes a show last week play beto for 75 minutes see how you're getting if he's all right great if he's looking nached through chimity on for the last 15 still getting a 6.4 inch striker yeah do you know it's not the same as dom and dom's flying he's a real handful but dom hasn't really been on it the last few games for whatever reason you know he came back in a blaze of glory scoring goals he was playing nearly well didn't have a great game against crystal palace away you know he didn't do anything wrong he wasn't in the game much isolated isolated barely at home he was all right but again that was a game i thought beto should have started and manchester united at the weekend he faded from the game totally and he did second after yeah he didn't do anything so now make sure that his muscles are right because we've got two big home games in three three or four days but this is a big game don't get me wrong but we need everyone who's fitting ready to go so if there's any doubt with dom i'd just throw better throw better win and take you from there yeah i think yeah that's what he's bought for wasn't yeah exactly and you've got we've got game on thursday game on the sunday you know there's gonna be a lot of there's a lot of games coming up what you don't want is to hear the horrible sort of thing oh it's gonna be missing for two weeks two weeks in december it's not like two weeks any other time you know you could be talking four games five games if it's if it's like december so what a time for beto to to get a beto brace no beto go no beto time there isn't get his first premier league goals in a win of forest what a what a great day that would be yeah there you go now it's um yeah it's a bit it's obviously a big game and a bit like you said ever and i've got to stop just bring in that 10 points down as fast as possible that's the the goal now is we've got games the tough but every game your opportunity to you know wear away at that chip away we've got to look at looting and go right you're the next in line we're coming after you and start it's five points now now okay they've got they'll have game weeks where it's good and weeks where it's bad won't it i think i think it's looting we've got a couple of difficult games coming up we've got to make sure we get positive results so that we're next so we can get either next to looting or ahead of looting all of a sudden they look and go and they add 10 points taking off them in the stiller but that's a meant mentally that's a real physical like a real tough battle to get over it's no good if we keep the wheeler games pass us by without getting pointing they're just adding on to their total otherwise we're gonna have to think what we've got to do is like the other side of it is like subliminally for us we've got to get to a point sally that we find respectable like you know after like 19 points you've got to look at it 19 games 19 games sorry i'd like to be on 19 points no that's what i'm saying though you've got to get to a point position where even with the tech you can where you can add the 10 on and go actually if we'd add the 10 points this is where we this is what our point would be where you know what i mean we don't what we don't want to be doing is getting to that halfway stage maybe in the leeway you're looking to say we're going god even even with our 10 points you're still crap do you know what i mean where that's what i'm saying is some projections against crystal palette after the palace game you've you were looking at like an even kind of season you were people were predicting high 40 oh and oh and therefore high even the early 50s well if that's the case even with the 10 points it'll be fine yeah i just don't think you can't get yourself yeah i just don't think mentally you can do that i just don't think i just think there's i just think as i said before we've said loads of things it's not just our middle it's not not just us mentally having to deal with it but other teams will be will be seeing it as a huge boost to them as well you know you can't factor in how how loot and players and fans would have been feeling when this came in they suddenly like we're at the bottom three if we win that next game and they lose their game they've got to take games my united so the way five points cleaner them and then they'll be going if we get a point there and point they've got an away game and that's the other side of it you can't it give it's give everybody else a boost and obviously dragged us in there and for us if it's like it's mental torture it's like the mental torture continues we thought we were getting away from it we thought we were getting out of it and we've been dragged back into it and it's really hard especially especially when you have when you're playing well you look at games go we'll do it be all right we'll get something there fanciers against it and then when that switch is flipped then you look at every game in a negative way and go no these we didn't haven't beaten these since god knows when and they're flying and you know for a staff and you know they haven't won for ages or the managers under pressure oh what a start that whole thing you look for everything you'll it just all starts keeping into your head so that's why if Evan could win on on saturday it almost becomes like a mental reset going actually lads we can do we're not terrible are we we were doing all right man United was a blip to get back doing what we were doing and if we could do that on saturday and then you start then you go we've got two home games for Gary we're playing we've got two home games now and if we get four points out of those two games we're flying and that's why that's why we're putting any more pressure on them let's get at least seven out the next nine yeah do that do that do that that'll be just do that that'll set us up nicely wouldn't it so help us out help us out massively just give us one season please one just one season where we can be relaxed and like early April please and it was on course for that without the Premier League or just give us another another point of ducks and make a 40 point and then we all know then we all know don't we make a piece really we can just go we're just preparing for next year lads just you've made your peace well I like mine mine's better no I do get seven out the next night I do I do I do keep on away at that just go get the let's just go and get the points there you go tough game of course um let's just let's just go why not we're boss away the Corey scores goals away from all the Corey Hatter you know what I mean that's it get more than one get a couple for the Corey flying won't you send the forwarders when you've got the Corey away from home I want battle come on battle lad now's the time go follow the lazy mode get yourself a couple of beauties hmm for us can start winning next week but just let us get them falling to the abyss and then get a 10 points man because how many plays they've bought them last two years that's a different story for the different day forget about them it's us can't put it on yeah but if they got a 20 point deduction what this is what maybe this is what we have to start doing is actually back the Premier League so they give no so they give more points the duck lootings point the duck ground than any money and do that ground easy though yeah almost right on that bottom shelf let's just win dead easy just win will you big blue nose actually was a blue nose actually was a blue nose so don't bring him into the conversations the fairy tale of the city grand better come on do it it will be december so it will and i've got to get up on sunday morning and be in time for a 5k at half nine for the santa dash imagine what i'll feel i will do that in a record time if everyone have won no what i want everything to go there and be able to sing jingle bells or what fun it is to watch
