But there was better signs I would say of progress from the injured players. And Duke's on the grass not with us but he's making good progress. So I'll say no more of the issue last week. No just Noxon, Bruce but nothing too happy. What's the approach against Manchester City? Well you've got to play well, that's for sure. They're in good form, they've got many ways of changes they can make, the depth of their squad. And they're know-how so you've got to play well as a start point. Usually you've got to defend well as well. Now we've done that pretty well this season. It is difficult, they're a very good side, we all know that, very talented side. So yeah I think the mixture's got to be right, you've got to defend well but you've got to play well generally. And you've got to take your chances when they come your way. Does it go without saying this is the most difficult task of all of them that they've scored in 57 home games on the run? The Premier League's difficult anyway but I think it's fed so over the last number of seasons. They've shown their prowess and they do the hard yards as well. I mean they work hard as well as being a fine football side. So it's a lot of good to like about them but you've got to play them all. So we'll certainly go there and take it on. And are you banned from the touch line? I believe I am, yeah. How does that impact? I mean it's just working with your staff more closely. You know earpiece and all that's not the same as being down there at pitch level. For me I quite like being at pitch level obviously and that kind of connection with the team. But it's one of them things, what's done is done. I think you spoke last week for protesting about the non-award of a penalty. No it wasn't, it was actually the second foul on Beto. The first one was the non-penalty and as everyone knows we haven't had one. And then the second one was the foul on the edge of the box on Beto. Which I thought was the worst decision to be honest. And then the challenge is, you know they say about a dugout, I mean sorry the technical area and being respectful of the game and all that sort of stuff. Well I was a tiny there about six feet and six feet from the, you know there's no room anyway. So you know I just stepped one yard and you're in the other technical area. Some manager running all over the place down the pitch and all sorts but no booking. So who knows, I don't know what the rules are anymore. You know I just go, I try and be natural and just respond to what happened right in front of my eyes. Is that one of the strangest stats so far that you haven't had a penalty this season? Well it must be up amongst them because we've certainly had enough calls from. You know one down at Tom Pull in Shirts, the other one the other day I thought was one. And I've seen the ones that go against us and you know I don't know what kind of contact is contact anymore. I think a lot of people in the game are kind of nervous around contacts in the box for the wrong reasons. You know some are giving for someone touching their shoulder and their legs buckle. I've never worked that one out but they give penalties and then Beto's clearly pushed off the ball the other day. No penalties so we'll hope. Well I don't think he'll have that on his mind either, right? He did really well, he'd flown back in. We gave him a down day, only one day he was training back with us. I thought he gave a very good performance. We certainly need his experience and his belief in what he does and rubbing off another. Certainly with a performance like that, that's for sure. And for Dominic Calvert-Lewis, do you feel for him in what looked like his goal last week to end that long drought? Yeah he's had a couple, I mean the one down at Tottenham, we were amazed on the VAR decision on that because that's a goal for him and the other day it was one of those things that he's jacked on the way in and that's it. But no, his performance has been good and I think he's growing into his performances more and more. So it'll come, the goals will come for him. Yeah, still making a vital contribution in games, hasn't it? Yeah he's working hard, he's working hard, I think he's true belief in his own fitness and his body is getting stronger all the time. So I think that can only be helpful. The key is for getting in the right areas. People are saying about his chances, some of the quality chances but at the end of the day he's getting the chances so they will go in. Any feedback regarding the appeal that's ongoing? So you're expecting your decision this month possibly by the end of next week? Yeah that's just broad guidelines on the appeal as you suggest but nothing no use. So nobody whispers in your ear first? No they didn't last time so I don't know why that changed. Right, they're still hopeful. I'll just wait and see, I can't be judging that, nothing to do with me once he's in their hands. Thanks very much, good, thank you. Sean good to see you, three bats about Premier League draws, do you feel the hard yards are being made and it is moving towards what will be in complete afternoons, afternoons that return three points? Well I think you know we haven't found that win but we're looking solid in our performances but before that one, if you had it all together you think it's healthy points return and then if you had the bigger picture and the 10 points on then you go that is a healthy return. So you know it makes news really when people chunk these games down but I know the bigger picture. Going back to your point, clean sheets are a good thing, you've got to take your chance as well and I think we have created good chances amongst them clean sheets but it is a good marker. You know if you're defending right as a team and you're working hard then you've got to obviously you increase your chance of winning games so we're right in every game, there's been a couple that got away from us this season but not many have been right in every game. Can I highlight the performances of Jared Brathway in his progression, his development, getting his first goal last weekend, all of that must be a huge positive for football club? Yeah I think to be honest I think Tarki alongside him has been excellent and I think he's a solid professional at this level and what he does and I think that's helpful for Jared, Jordan behind him with his experience, you know the Miko's playing ever so well. You know we've had a few injuries at right back but when required different people have done well and that and the unit's been strong so I think that's helped Jared but he's certainly enjoying his football and that's what we're going to continue doing and great for him to get his goal last week. I know you were really pleased with how your side mixed it up against Spurs last weekend, your threat from set piece is obvious but how are your side pressed as well? That is crucial, that is essential at a place like Manchester City to try and get it all right. Well you've got to press wisely, you know that's the the challenge of the pressing game if you like, you've got to press wisely it's got to be by design because they're a good out for their use to it don't forget that's how they play and they've played against many sides that press so I think you've got to be you've got to be clever with your pressing you can't just go crisp bags in the wind you know it's going to be an organised press and I think the players have shown they can do that this season it is more difficult with the way man's city play because they're used to teams doing that so they're well versed and practiced in trying to break down teams who do that so yeah maybe a shift in our game plan maybe a shift in our thinking we'll see. 11 wins and draw their form in the last 12 in all competitions pleasure Harland's back De Bruyne are back they're both starting and they certainly started against Brentford again how do you begin to try and contain Manchester City? Well it's part of the challenge of playing the top top teams you know they're quite obviously up there for a reason once again and they've got sort of a strength in depth they've got strength in how they work they're a great outfit without a shadow of a doubt but like I say take all these games on you know that's the mentality we want to continue to build here taking on no matter who you're playing against taking on with that clear-mindedness to go and focus on you you have to pay attention to the opposition quite obviously but you've got to focus on you and your performance and I think we've so far this season we've done well on that you know and it's important to remember that even when you're going to play select man's city. Is the psychological part of it as crucial thinking we can go to the Etihad we can go to Manchester? Well I certainly think you've got other a group belief that you can challenge these teams and I think being competitive is a start point and performing you know and I've spoken endlessly about it with a group that competitive edging performances but also that consistency of performances and we've we've made some ground with that so we've got to go there like a you know started this interview you've got to play well you know you know now and again you get they might have a soft performance not too many but they might do that sometimes happens but you've got to lay your marker down and that's to play well that's the minimum we've got here we've got to play well. Hi. 16 different players in your squad have scored in all competitions this season with the strikers low on numbers not necessarily about their performances but low on numbers is that something that you've been working on to take the pressure off them? No not really nothing to do with taking pressure off anyone it's to do with the mentality that we've been fostering here is that is anyone can score you know everyone's got to go into a scoring position to believe they can score um likewise you want the same and the balance with the defending side you know I asked centre forwards to defend properly I'll want the white players to defend properly so there's a balance to the team ethic but no it's certainly not about removing pressure pressure's there for everyone pressure's there on strikers all the time you know so I think that's just part of their role um scored goals the same as it is for keepers to keep clean sheets and so I think I think it's more about the mentality as a team to go and score goals and and I think we've been trying to grow with that and I think that markers are pretty good one you know you've got a spread of goals across your your team but we also want goals from our strikers of course that adds to it um and it and it's often the focal point of a side if you haven't got that you've got to find goals and we've we've had smells where we've done what they've done that well. A lot of work went last season into getting Dominic back fit and and making sure you can get a run of games and you seem to have touched wood solve that issue right now how are you going about now getting those numbers up because you say there's always pressure on strikers people look at the number of goals at the end of the day don't they so is there anything extra going on with him at the minute? No I think I think he's working hard in training I think he's doing the right things I think in games he's getting in the right areas that's been shown by his chance count and and I think it's that belief in that you know one you know that it's the old ad is many I mean I I think I can't remember it was it the day one of the strikers was talking about sometimes you need one that hits you and goes in you know sometimes that just restarts a striker for no no other reason I can't remember it was but anyway it's one of the big scores it wasn't sheer but one of someone just scored a lot of goals and um I mean I was listening in the distance so that yeah sometimes you do need that sometimes you know now you want to do it by design of course you know you want to strike whose scores are great goal or or an important goal or whatever but sometimes it's just one that hits you and goes in that sometimes just breaks it and starts your re-scoring again so whatever way it comes it will come just ask you about Lewis Dobbin he came on from the bench against Spurs and had a real impact pretty quickly because of his pace and how he plays how close is he to maybe starting or or maybe just getting a bit more game time yeah I mean he's he's been around it all season he's done well he did well in pre season we felt he has got some games on early season then bits and parts but he's still developing you know he's a player who is developing and I think he's got more to come but we're enjoying what he's doing he's working very hard in training as well and each one of these little parts of games that he plays it keeps building his belief and I think that's important Jordan picked for nine clean sheets now I think we've mentioned this quite a few times keeping his tally going um when you look at that given your place in the table I think sometimes there's a bit of confusion how have Everton got that many clean sheets but where they are but there's been the points deduction but do you think that shows you know it's a defensive unit that or is it down to Jordan himself I think I'm pretty clear actually that Jordan would consider it to be the the unit because I think he's he's a very good guy we know that with his experience and his understanding of of his role within a team but I think he likes the fact there's a structure and there's a work ethic in front of him you know he's seeing players work across the board and I think as a keeper that's a pleasing thing to see um so no I think he and that's not taking anything away from his own performances but I think I'm I think he'd be fair minded to suggest the team are working very hard in front of him on the touchline ban which the three yellow cards which is a punishment and assumily is supposed to be a deterrent I suppose does it does it give you cause for reflection or is it just I mean it comes with a no I think the only thing I was disappointed are three really bad decisions from a referee so I've got booked for three really bad decisions I think there should be a bit more tolerance you know fourth officials there if they see if deep down they're thinking that's a the ref might have that one wrong and I don't see why you booked for it that's the moment when they should use a bit of that came understand everything right okay maybe just come back in here and just say listen you maybe got that one wrong but we need you to just you know stay in the or whatever I think that can be a calming down moment I didn't think I should get three yellow cards for them moments because they are factually bad decisions so sometimes you get a human response you know when you see a decision especially when in tight games and excuse me the important ones um canate our way at Liverpool I think everyone in the stadium knew what was going up and it didn't you know I get booked for that um the one the other day I think everyone in the stadium can see a possible penalty can't decide for sure but a possible penalty doesn't even get looked at and then 30 seconds or a minute later another foul on the edge of the box which is an absolute foul so then you go well it's a human response maybe I'll suggest the force on any given occasion you'll probably realise that you don't have to agree with me but they can maybe go right okay just slow yourself down you know go back in just calm the moment down um whereas if you're going outside your box doing whatever you're doing all the time then that's different that's of your own fault you know your own accord but not when it's something like that I don't feel between the both officials and managers or officials and managers and talk about human response is that an area that can still be improved well it's like all of it at the minute I think the thing that we're we're all questioning is just consistency and parity you know the the different ways of officiating of course we're all human they're going to have different ways but there's so many different ways of games working at the moment with the referees performances and with the the idea of this technical area you know one to get lives more than others you see managers running up and down the line I don't know cheering goals or whatever they do and nothing's done so then you go well which one is it then so I think it's more just them you know just the rules have got to be the same for everyone I think that's the key
