 Welcome to Toffy TV. It is the Everton News Daily. Raphael Benitez has given his pre-match press conference ahead of Monday night's Everton vs Arsenal game at Goulderson Park. Benitez discussed a number of things. He recapped the derby and praised the players for running a lot, running more than Liverpool. I think Everton did put a lot of effort into it, but still made mistakes and weren't good enough. Ultimately Liverpool deserved to win. The manager can keep talking about getting players back and it will be better, which he probably will. But he's also got to start trying to cut the mistakes he's making out as well, which he did do the other night, especially 3L in the field, which was never going to work. But we'll have to see. He's confident it will improve when the players are back. He thinks Everton will have a strong second half of the season. We'll have to get that far first. If Everton continues to not win games, I don't see how much longer he will last. But we'll have to see. Hopefully we'll start to win games because it is getting a little bit worrying the situation. He did say that Jerry Meane was in contention for Monday's game against Arsenal and he's training again. So that's good news, as is Andre Gomez. He also didn't rule out Solomon Rondon from Monday's game below. He did say he would have to be monitored. Tom Davis is still out at the moment he's suffering with a knee injury. The manager did say that Dominic Halvert-Lewin is probably still a fortnight away from being in contention. So they're coming back slowly but surely the players have said that a few times we need everybody back. It's not being good enough, but it hasn't been good enough in the whole club at the moment, but certainly on the pitch it hasn't been good enough and it has to improve. Benitez was asked about the January transfer market and said that the owner on board do want to spend money to back him. He said there are some players we can get and other players who we can't get. That was in response to attract them players where evidence league position is at the moment. Maybe trying to attract players who are playing in Champions League clubs and they look at evidence and think no, stay where they are. We'll have to see who we get. We've got to get players who are going to come in and make an impact. Ideally you're going to get younger players who you can develop and sell on, have a sell-on value, ultimately because we've had so many players at the wrong end of the career or players who just walk out of the club for nothing, therefore cost them as more money. So, hopefully they've got players who will make a difference, like a right back, a winger in midfielder maybe, and we'll see what we can do. Maybe a couple of loans, we'll have to wait and see. So it's week 15 of Ultimate Fan. It's time to pick our teams. We've opened our packs. Let's get into it. Romelu Llechachw has not been playing and he's been captain and I think he's been costing me a few points. So I'm going to put in Jamie Vardy, he's backscoring goals. I'm going to put him back in my side. Alexander-Anal Robinson, Foden, Vardy, Salas, Sacher. Sacher cos he's playing against Devarton. That feels a little bit dirty, but then again, most of the week, quite a few points in the week. Do you know what? I'm going to take Sacher out and I'm going to put Kevin De Bruin in. Go on, are you going for? I'm just going to make one change quickly before I go through my team. Kai Havett with Bruno Fernandez. You've scored the other night and you've actually got a goal. I've got Fertil van Dijk and Alexander-Anal. I've got Midfield, Bruno Fernandez and Golo Cante. I've got Raid Mares and Sadio Mane. Most Salas is my golden boot and I've made sense to Alexander-Anal. I feel really horrible and dirty about that, but it is a price worth £5,000. If they're going to do it, you might as well benefit from it. I've got Alexander-Anal. He's my captain and Sadio Mane. He's my golden boot. And yet Jota was the biggest scorer in the week. Obviously because of the last couple of games, it's been huge. There you go. Don't forget you can play the game for free, free basepacks every single week and as you'll have seen if you see my pack opening this week, you can get some really good players in there.

He was asked about players going out. Obviously there was a story last night where everybody seemed to be covering it that Dominic Calvert-Lewin is Arsenal's number one choice transfer target next summer. So the press may be being briefed on that. That Arsenal really interested in him. Benitez countered that and said we don't have to sell anyone and ideally we won't sell anybody that we don't want to. But it depends on the season, pans out really. Arsenal at the moment are doing really well. Buying younger players, building something. We seem to be going the other way at the minute and it is not good enough. If Arsenal coming with big money in the summer then maybe Dominic Calvert-Lewin is someone Everton will look to sell and re-invest that money and bring in two or three for the price of one. So we'll have to see what happens with that one. Let's finish on some positive news. Jarrod Branthwaith is set to sign a new four-year deal at Everton Football Club. Branthwaith signed from Carl Isle a year over. Nearly two years ago, wasn't it now? Forgetting where we are. Two years ago next month he's come in and done really well to be fair. He's had some games in the Premier League, got an injury then went out on loan and got it unfortunately, got injured towards the end of his loan at Blackburn. He's come, he's been involved this season and played the Huddersfield but he's only young lad. Got all the attributes to be able to send him back. So I imagine Everton will tie in down to this new deal and then possibly send him out on loan in January to get more experience and then hopefully he can start challenging for the first team if he develops at the right pace.
