 Hello, welcome to Toffing TV. It is the match preview, Everton vs Chelsea, two o'clock on Sunday at Gwldersham Park, mewn Jack. I'm going to preview this one for you, Jack. Opportunity for Everton to continue a great week so far, two games, two wins, two clean sheets. Obviously going to be a very tough game against the side that has some tremendous footballers playing for it. Yeah, it's a big test, but it's a good test. As we've said already, without the point deduction, Everton would currently be above Chelsea. Right now, we know they're not having the best season, but you say a lot of quality in that side with the individuals. A lot of money spent as well in Pochettino, he said Postercoglu. Pochettino, he's a very established manager as well. Now, if Everton can overcome a Chelsea side, yes they are outperforming, but do still have a lot of quality. I think it reaffirms everything Everton is doing at the moment, and I've done in the last week with two convincing wins. If they can get something over Chelsea as well, that's three wins in the space of a week practically, and that's a massive turnaround in form from where the league table might suggest Everton are. I mean, Everton have won more games than Chelsea this season as well, which again, the point deduction thing is hugely frustrating if you're never Tonying, isn't it? We'd be 10th now, wouldn't we, in looking up. But we do have to remember, forget about the league positions, and Everton are out the bottom three now, which is great. But forget about the league position, we have won more games than anyone in the bottom half of the league including Chelsea. So, we have to look at it as this on paper should be quite an even game given where the two teams are performing. They've spent £1.1 billion in just over a year, they've got some tremendous players, but they're not quite a team as yet, and even though I think Potatino will get them there, just right now, they're a little bit hit and miss, aren't they? Every game seems quite narrow, we've seen real good performances from them, things like beating space, 4-1, OK, Spearsman Danternau, mewn bod wedi bwc yn ffordd, cwm yn bach against City to draw 4-4, but then you see them losing against like Man United now, it's a tough game, but we've seen other home defeats for them, and you wouldn't expect Brentford, you know, beating 2-0 at the bridge, things like that. So, they are a little bit up and down at the moment, and that might be something Everton can take advantage of. Yeah, I think inconsistence, the way for Chelsea, isn't it, and I do think that's a consequence of they have effectively built a new team. Yeah, yeah. A very short space of time, and there are some very good individual players in it, Enzo Fernandez, we know his quality, the likes of Casado, you know, Col Parm is doing brilliantly, Nicholas Jackson, someone who did very well at Villarreal, but trying to do that all at once over a short space of time, it forces them to have to adapt very quickly, rather than have that money been spent over six transfer windows over a couple of years, and, you know, you slowly integrate all these new players, that all earning on the job, and there's very few carryovers from the previous era of Chelsea. There's one in that Raheem Stalen, and he's been the quality performer for them, but the rest, a lot of them are young, the young gladge, meaning they're developing anyway, and they're lot play through that spine in the middle, you know, that midfield's new Parmer, in the 10 jacks and the striker, new centre backs as well, and I think the spine of the team is the place in the pitch you do really need that maturity, and that experience is that's where most of the game takes place, and Everton, we've seen in recent weeks, have been successful, you know, go back to the Newcastle game last night and that intensity in the middle of the park, and that's where Everton will look to get at Chelsea, play on those insecurities, they might have play on that inexperience as well, and put them in a tough position that some of these players haven't had to face much in their careers, as they've been young players coming through, you know, top clubs, who've been bedded in to those teams, and then been brought to Chelsea, and they're now in the deep ends. Yeah, I mean, Everton, from an Everton perspective, they're going to have to be on the metal, again, defensively, Chelsea, like we've said, they've got tremendous quality in that final third, you know, people like Medweyche, they've got Mudd's Richard, he's a bit hit and miss, but he's got real pace, he's got he's stailing excellent, we know all about him, Nicholas Jackson, you know, there's an embarrassment, he's almost at Chelsea, Armando Bruea, is there as well, another big lad who's got good ability about him, he feels strong, you know, it's difficult when you go through them individually to go, oh, these are weak, Lincoln, these are weak, because they don't think they've got any, the thing that Potatino struggled a little bit with, is that coherent, like you've said, and I think, like you say, I think it will come, I think it will take a bit longer. Therefore, for Everton, this time, this is a great time to play them, they are still struggling a little bit with consistency, one at the weekend, got beaten midweek, that kind of thing, so we've got the opportunity to really put some points on the board, get a good scalper here, you know, Everton have got a decent record against Chelsea, a good isn't over the past five, six, seven years, whatever, in fact, probably longer than that, we've had some really good results, last season we were beaten on the opening day with a penalty, it was the only thing between the two teams, I think the crowd will be engaged, it is us against the world at the minute, and Everton, where to be able to get past Chelsea in this one, nine points in a week after the ten point deduction, you know, would be an unbelievable boost to the football club, wouldn't it? Yeah, well, it's almost a damage reversed, isn't it, because you get the best part of ten points in a short space of time, okay, you're still ten points down, but you've immediately almost, you know, shackled off that worry of, can we get these points back if you do that in a week? You know, yeah, it's still effectually positioned, because those points are still gone, and you know, it's hard not to look at like we've done already, a way it would be with this, you know, we're only here because of these ten points missing, but if you get the majority of it back in a very short space of time, it just calms those worries, I don't think prior to the ten point deduction, many Evertonians were particularly worried about the threat of relegation anymore, it's only having that come to us in them worrying about the knock-on effect of how will this affect the players mentally. Like I say, if we can effectively undo that, or at least make the difference up, maybe that's a better phrase, we can make the difference up in a week, then there are zero worries about can this team cope with that sort of pressure? Yeah, I mean, I think what the manager has done on what the players will do, and they have quite clearly been doing this since they come back, the United game, there was always going to be a lot of pressure on that game, given the noise around it, it was the first game back, it was man United, and it was all undone with the goal of the season in the first couple of minutes, and Everton then still missed three or four excellent chances, they should have been winning a half-time, and then we get a penalty against us and it goes wrong, but what the manager's done since then, the players as well, is probably just looked at how they're actually playing, almost like forget about the league, the league is what it is, but look at what you're playing, and on top of that, they've now had the two more wins, they've won six games, like I said, there's no-one in the bottom half of one more games than Everton, you've got to go up to Brentford, I think you, is it Brentford? Well West Ham is sorry in ninth, they've won more games with football than Everton, so that's what we have to remember when we're going into these games, like I said right at the start, we'd actually be above Chelsea, if there had been no points deduction, and that's how we have to approach this game, and if we do that, and if the fan base does that, and stays with it, then we can definitely get a favourable result, and I think the big thing as well, is if we can't win it, don't lose it, keep adding the points, keep adding to the points total in this difficult period, but I do think Sean Dight will be saying to the players, this is a good opportunity to recall back-to-back home victories, which is something we haven't done for a while, and really, you know, you're already out of bottom three, Luton play man's city, a home at the weekend, city need a victory, so if Everton were to win, and if city done their job, then Everton would have opened up kind of like a four-point barrier already on Luton, having had ten points and being dropped into the bottom, and that is a, I don't think there's a bigger incentive than that really. No, absolutely not. Easiest said than done by the way. Yeah, it just requires us to do our bit as well, like you say, even if we don't win, just keep the points coming in, because every point at this stage is a massive bonus, and this is a game where we can get those points, but this is also a game where we don't play the badge, we play the team in front of us, don't approach these as Chelsea, the multiple-time league winners, two-time Champions League winners. It's a different squad, still a very talented squad, but it's a squad with its own issues. Approach that, approach with the same mindset as the Newcastle game, where we made it hard for them through the intensity of our performance, and you will play on a lot of the pressures they've already faced this season and shown they struggle to deal with. Absolutely. Let's have a look at the evidence side that played against Newcastle on Thursday night, Joven Pickford in gold, Michael Enco, Jarell Branthwaite, James Sarkowski, Seamus Coleman, captain and right back, Dwight McNeill, Idrissa Ghanagai, Abdelad Y Corrae, Ashley Young, on the right, Jack Harrison, just off Dominic Calvert-Lewin up front. Do you envisage any changes, Sean Dijkers, or have you said the expect to add James Ghanag back from illness? And I'm going to do on that. The expect to be fifth for this one as well, so I haven't got two central midfield players backing the squad it looks like for Sunday. There is a doubt over Seamus Coleman, that'll probably be left late. Do you envisage any changes from the manager for this one? Yeah, I think the most obvious one is probably Coleman, as well, even if his injury isn't that severe, he's only just come back from a long lay off, and there's his age as well, so maybe you don't want to rush him, and you have got options who play his position as well. So I think we'll see one of Ghanag or Oana come back into the team. Maybe it'll be James Ghanag, because he's coming back from an illness. Oana's coming back from an injury, which you don't want to aggravate. Yeah, you don't want to aggravate that again, where Oana probably can just come back into the team, if he's feeling well enough. But it's good to have the options, and if Oana doesn't start, I'd like to at least see him on the bench, because something we have lacked in recent weeks and over the course of the season, really, is options off the bench. The options the manager trusts are good. There's just not many of them. So if we can say Ashley Young drops back to Phil Coleman's position, I'd like it to be Paterson, but it'll most likely be Young. Then Harrison moves out wide to Corey, pushes up, and one of Garner or Oana comes into the midfield. But then, ideal, you've got whoever doesn't start on the bench waiting to come on if we need them. Absolutely, I agree. I think that will be the change if Sean Dyge does do it. It might be in force, like we said, with obviously James Coleman. He took a bang on the foot, I think it was. But he seemed fitting off at the end when he ran back on to celebrate with Beto, so we'll see how we go. Chelsea went to Old Trafford in midweek, and he's beaten 2-1. This is the team that they put out at Manchester United, at Manchester and Goal. Cwciorella, Dysasi, Thiago Silva at Levy Colwell. Dedi, Adenzo, Fernandez, Casidaw, Mudrick, Parme, Staling, and Nicholas Jackson off-front. I mean, you look at that team, and there's a lot of money in there and a lot of good footballers. But I think, like we said before, not quite a team as yet. A lot of individuals trying it, trying to get that fluidity and trying to get that starting to create a ffocrum of players that gel together and can get going. I think they've got Connor Gallagher back for this one as well, who's suspended against United. Is Rhys James back as well? Just talk Rhys James with me back as well. So they will have a couple coming back in as well. But hey, they've been in before, and Chelsea's still been losing games. So we can't worry about them too much. I think it's more of a rush. But they're dangerous, man. You think you touched on it before is one of their senior players, and there is, of course, Raheem Sterling. Let's have a look at his numbers. 15 games, you've got five goals overperforming in his XG, which is 3.19, one shop per game, and his XA is 1.98, it looks like. And his heat map is very impressive. He's literally everywhere, isn't he? Everywhere. And he's a danger, man, isn't he? Yeah, and it's no surprise that if anyone was going to step up for Chelsea this season, it'd be him because, although he's only been there a year, he's been there and done it still, and he's won multiple trophies with Man City. He's the star player in that team, and although it wouldn't surprise me if they looked to shift them on in the next couple of years, because Chelsea has just been a revolving door of young players coming from France lately, his quality for them. He is the danger, man. He's a player who's given us trouble in the past, and we know all about overperforming his XG, like you say, I think he scored brilliant three-kick, not too long ago as well, so he's a player who's going to be dangerous all over the pitch as the heat map shows as well. But if we can contain him, that's a massive part of Chelsea's Arsenal weekends, and then it is going to be on young players like Mudrick, potentially, and like Carl Palmer to potentially step up, and as I keep saying, if we make that game hard and intimidating, it's going to be less likely that we see a younger, more inexperienced player shine. Yeah, we've just got to do what we've been doing of late. Certainly against Newcastle, we started very much on the front foot, intensity, and engage the crowd. That made Godderson noisy. It made Godderson have an energy that the players fed off, and therefore we know that when you fuse that two together, generally the results are quite positive at home. We've been very good away under the manager. He's now starting to get it moving in the right direction of Godderson Park, and like I said before, this one again represents a big opportunity for Evan to just keep that up with trajectory going, doesn't it? Yeah, and just a massive lift for them if it wasn't for the point of deduction. I'm sorry to keep going back to it, but it is a massive part of the Evan fabric at the moment, isn't it? Evan would be flying high right now, two seasons battling relegation to be what would be very comfortable mid table at the moment if not for the deduction, I think. The attitude in the camp would be great, and it looks very good anyway, because they are all taking it in the strides, and we just need to keep that up, and to keep that up, we need to keep getting points. It's going to be difficult. They've got good players, and if they switch it on, they're a better team than us. But we can make it hard for them. We can limit how likely it is they're going to switch it on and build those on the pitch relationships. Like we've said already, nine points in a week is massive. It's great for any club, but for the club, the points are like gold us to at the moment. It would just be absolutely huge for us. We've seen also, we've seen the likes of West Ham, West Ham beat them 3-1 without having a lot of the ball, and we have to take half from that. Yes, they were unlucky on the day, I think they even missed a penalty on the day, but we've got to make sure we take our opportunities. It's a great opportunity. It's going to be a tough game, Chelsea, just as likely to win 3-0 as they are going to be 3-0. So, it's whichever Chelsea turns up, hopefully it's one that hates the North and it's just like, let's just get back to Stanford Bridge next week and start winning again. That's the hope anyway. But for Everton, let's keep adding to the points. It's a great opportunity to, like we say, almost gain those 10 points back in a week. That would be a huge, huge thing for Sean Dyche. But like he keeps saying, if we can't win it, don't lose it because just even 7 points out of this week will be a really, really solid good return with some difficulties. So, let's keep it going. There you go. Let us know what you think in the comments section below. How did you see this one going? Give the video a thumbs up, subscribe if you haven't. Thanks for watching. See you later.
