to network Hello everybody and welcome to another GSP and Everton daily podcast today. I'm joined again by ah ah with Johnny. Sorry. How are you doing, Johnny?
00:00:17
Johnny
Very well, thank you. Excellent.
Everton's Takeover Impact
00:00:19
officialgspn
Good. Good. Are you maybe happier even now with the and news of the takeover yesterday?
00:00:23
Johnny
I thought you meant with the one point. Am I happy? Yeah, i I'm over the moon. I think I even went out and celebrated. We got a point.
00:00:31
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:00:32
Johnny
Take over. Yeah, brilliant. I think it's great news for the club. and Hopefully, in the next, what, six to eight weeks, we should see some improvements, um some big changes, I think.
00:00:44
officialgspn
Yeah. that Yeah. So I think it's all been like, it's been signed off at our end, but I think the Premier League need to do their own checks and stuff.
Club's Challenges and Hope
00:00:51
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:00:51
officialgspn
So like you said, I'll be six to eight weeks.
00:00:52
officialgspn
But I think what it will do is it will just give us some stability after that, after what's been what, eight to 10 years of just, just awful, awful stuff.
00:01:00
Johnny
Yes.
00:01:02
officialgspn
um So for people that don't know, freaking you um owned Roma, agreed with Everton to pay off the ACAP debts,
00:01:14
officialgspn
um $225 million also loaned by rights and media funding as well as I'm sure 777 gave a load of money just to kind of kind of keep us
00:01:22
Johnny
Yeah.
00:01:27
officialgspn
keep the lights on for, I suppose. But I think, yeah, like you said, that will, um in six to eight weeks, we'll start to then feel that we've got some owners that hopefully will back us to start, because I think we need some players in January.
00:01:38
Johnny
Definitely, yeah.
00:01:39
officialgspn
I think we need to fall back and meet some sense of refill. But yeah, it's really, really good news.
Game Review and Player Performance
00:01:44
officialgspn
And for for once, we're going into a podcast with a little bit of positivity.
00:01:44
Johnny
Right, dude.
00:01:47
Johnny
Yeah, yeah. I'm the point, don't forget.
00:01:50
officialgspn
I was about to bring go on. So you watched, the did you watch the game?
00:01:52
Johnny
I did, yeah, yeah, I did.
00:01:54
officialgspn
What did you think?
00:01:55
Johnny
I thought they did well, it was a great improvement. and Yeah, it was some great football. First first half an hour, 45 minutes, I thought they played well. And that goal was cracking goal, the man and die, wasn't he?
00:02:10
officialgspn
Yeah, it was really, it was brilliant all game. I was at the game and it was, first of all, the the, the, the weather for one, it was some was
00:02:12
Johnny
Top man. Oh, where do we... I don't know how they've even seen the ball, let alone play with it.
00:02:21
officialgspn
ridiculous first half an hour. It was fine. Some were shining. Then it was just awful for the rest of the game.
00:02:24
Johnny
Yeah.
00:02:26
officialgspn
um
00:02:27
Johnny
Well, I've seen it half time and they had to delay the kickoff, the second half.
00:02:30
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:02:32
Johnny
All the fans were running inside. They were coming out with ponchos out and the rain was just, you couldn't even see the camera. Cause I was sat watching it at home thinking, Oh my God, what's going on here?
00:02:43
officialgspn
but It was ridiculous. um Yeah, the game was, um it was better. It was better. I thought in Dye, like you said, brilliant, brilliant goal.
00:02:51
Johnny
Yeah.
00:02:52
Johnny
Fabulous. Yeah.
00:02:52
officialgspn
And he also had a couple of really nice touches and created some.
00:02:55
Johnny
where he turned and went through and knocked it into the corner.
00:02:58
officialgspn
we We weren't meant to win in the stand. And then Lindstrom, I thought was really good. I think he's got to be one that has to start playing now at right wing. He was really, really, really bright. Nice touches on the right.
Managerial Decisions During Game
00:03:10
officialgspn
um I thought Mangala looked really nice in central midfield.
00:03:13
Johnny
Yes, he was really good, Mangali. He's another great player for Everson, yeah.
00:03:18
officialgspn
Yeah, he progressed the ball and and it made things work. I thought De Correi, first half, when he was he was more of a deep-line playmaker, he was doing a lot of um of chasing and pressing, and I thought he actually was really good as well.
00:03:30
Johnny
Yeah.
00:03:31
officialgspn
um And Ashley Young got an assist, which you don't see that very often now nowadays, do you?
00:03:35
Johnny
No, no. when you When you see the line up and you go, young and keen again, come on Daishe.
00:03:42
officialgspn
That's what we thought as well. we ah One thing I wasn't wanting to see was young at left back, but I actually thought he was he was really good in there.
00:03:43
Johnny
Yeah.
00:03:49
Johnny
Yeah.
00:03:50
officialgspn
I thought the whole team played really well for the first 60 odd. And then I think we've got to have a look at Daishi substitutes, bringing off Lindstrom.
00:03:56
Johnny
The changes.
00:04:00
Johnny
Yes, again, and why take off a and die in Lindstrom and leave Calvert-Lewin on the pitch? It just doesn't make sense to me.
00:04:11
officialgspn
No, it doesn't. It's, we were so bright. And then the same
Upcoming Matches Analysis
00:04:17
officialgspn
was the Bournemouth game. When you take off a few of the players that are able to bring the ball out and relieve pressure from the defence, you're going to, you're going to struggle.
00:04:21
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:04:27
officialgspn
Um, but yeah, he brought, I don't know who else he brought. I'm sure he brought Lindstrom off. He brought off and die.
00:04:33
Johnny
Brought a flint swimming in dye.
00:04:35
officialgspn
And who did he bring on? Was it Eric Burnham came on?
00:04:36
Johnny
For... He brought in a bit of Irrebonum and Jack Harrison.
00:04:40
officialgspn
Oh yeah, Jack Harrott, he really struggled when he came on.
00:04:43
Johnny
Yeah, he did, yeah, yeah.
00:04:45
officialgspn
I can't see a way that Diesch can argue him starting ahead of Lindstrom anymore now. I just can't.
00:04:50
Johnny
No, no, I can't, know no, no.
00:04:53
officialgspn
And then, yes, I suppose a point to point. I think when we were out the ground, we were we were feeling pretty happy with it. I thought, ah put at least a point is a point. Going in, obviously, to the game at the weekend and against Palace at home. That's got to be a must-win now, isn't it, Johnny?
00:05:07
Johnny
definitely definitely these next few games the vital for us it's a debt it's got to be a three point to this we've got a absolutely destroyed palace yeah really have it's the three o'clock kick up as well yeah yeah yeah
00:05:16
officialgspn
I hope so. Cause then three o'clock at Goodison Park, I believe it's at Goodison. Yeah, it is, I think. And and then, oh, then and we've got Newcastle, I think it's at home as well.
00:05:24
Johnny
it is yeah it's
00:05:29
officialgspn
And then it switched away.
Managerial Future Debate
00:05:31
officialgspn
So a couple of, a couple of winnable ones. um
00:05:31
Johnny
right yeah win those three and we'll
00:05:35
Johnny
and we're moving, we're flying.
00:05:37
officialgspn
Yeah. i think I think it's looking a little more positive.
00:05:38
Johnny
We just need that first wind, don't we?
00:05:40
officialgspn
We do, we do.
00:05:40
Johnny
Yeah.
00:05:41
officialgspn
We delete we need... I think the players need it. Obviously the players need it. We we played so well against Bournemouth. We played fine, I thought. Well, we played well against Villa.
00:05:50
Johnny
Yeah.
00:05:50
officialgspn
Didn't play as well against Southampton, but again, at the weekend, it's more positive stuff. It's good stuff.
00:05:54
Johnny
Yeah, it is.
00:05:56
Johnny
Positive sus, we're not letting as many goals in.
00:05:56
officialgspn
um
00:05:59
officialgspn
No. That's it. That's it.
00:06:01
Johnny
Which is definitely a bonus.
00:06:03
officialgspn
Yes. Yeah, we need to, ah and also more good news, Darragh Brantaway, Patterson and Idrissa Ganege, I think, are back ah in first-team training.
00:06:13
Johnny
Yeah, that's great. That's great news. Yeah.
00:06:16
officialgspn
I think Patterson and Brantaway played in a, on a 21s game against Sunderland on Monday, or maybe it was Sunday.
00:06:23
Johnny
Yeah. How did they get on?
00:06:25
officialgspn
They ah they won 4-3, so it wasn't exactly a sure defensive backline, but
00:06:30
Johnny
Yeah.
00:06:31
officialgspn
I think, I think, I think, I think they play well. I think Branthwaite played the whole 19, Patterson played 60 odd. um So it's just good to see them getting back into full, full fitness again, because I think bring Branthwaite in and try and find Patterson some, some game time.
00:06:43
Johnny
Yeah.
00:06:46
officialgspn
And I think we'll, we'll still be scoring the goals, but we'll be also hopefully keeping a clean she.
00:06:52
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:06:54
officialgspn
Yeah, it's looking a lot better. I guess the question people are asking at the minute is, are you going to give Dyche until the end of the season? Or do you think the new owner, once he comes in hopefully, will take you out?
00:07:07
Johnny
Yeah, he's got to.
Stadium Excitement
00:07:09
officialgspn
I don't know. I just don't know if you bring in that there's rumours of Southgate coming in.
00:07:14
Johnny
Southgate Potter or David Moyes.
00:07:17
officialgspn
They are the three, they are the three.
00:07:18
Johnny
I know it's
00:07:19
officialgspn
Have you got have you got a preference out of the three? Is it still Moyes?
00:07:25
Johnny
like going backwards but out of the three, and I'd probably choose Potter first, then Moyes and not Southgate.
00:07:37
officialgspn
Is anyone but Southgate?
00:07:41
officialgspn
It is just so Everton, isn't it, that he's been linked to the job.
00:07:43
Johnny
Yeah, it is, yeah.
00:07:44
Johnny
Oh, who's Everton linked with? Gareth Southgate. Oh, great. We're trying to, like, get excited about doing great stuff and winning things.
00:07:44
officialgspn
this
00:07:55
officialgspn
and they' so People forget that before England, Southgate, didn't he relegate Middlesbrough and then got sacked in the championship?
00:07:59
Johnny
Yeah, yeah, did yeah, yeah, Yeah.
00:08:02
officialgspn
I think he's had a plethora of talent at England. I don't think hed he cut it us for sure. um
00:08:08
Johnny
I probably would choose Potter then. Out of those three.
00:08:14
officialgspn
ah just With Potter, he's almost a bit of a project manager. He he needs time to will to embed his own play, his own philosophy.
00:08:22
Johnny
Yeah.
00:08:23
officialgspn
Whether or not he he's at Everton, we've got the players to play how Potter did play under Brighton. whether or not he can hold the pressure because obviously at Chelsea he wasn't exactly, he didn't set the world of light.
00:08:34
Johnny
No.
00:08:35
officialgspn
But then I think he may well be more of a risk.
00:08:38
officialgspn
It would make, it so feels more of an Eddie Howell appointment when they brought ah him in when Newcastle were at the bottom and they just had that salary to make over.
00:08:44
Johnny
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:08:47
Johnny
Who would you choose?
00:08:48
officialgspn
Seeing who would I choose? I think I'd i'd stick with Daish, but if Daish is out of the out of the question, I'd i'd go with, um
00:08:53
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:08:59
officialgspn
I'd probably go with Moyes with the definite thing in his contract that he doesn't stay after the end of the season.
00:09:01
Johnny
Always, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:09:06
officialgspn
and
00:09:07
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:09:08
officialgspn
um But it's still exciting
Player Performance Insights
00:09:11
officialgspn
stuff, isn't it? We do we we need points in the ball. We need a couple of players in, but like like we've been saying, the the performances are there. um Yeah, really, really happy with it. I mean, so we're saying Crystal Palace is ah is is a must win.
00:09:28
Johnny
It is, yeah.
00:09:28
officialgspn
how many games would you How many games would you give dice now, then?
00:09:33
Johnny
and Another three tops. He's got to win these next three.
00:09:36
officialgspn
yeah No.
00:09:36
Johnny
Alice Ipswich, Newcastle. They're three pointers. If we can't beat them, we're not going to get out of that bottom three.
00:09:44
officialgspn
There's no point in us playing, is there, really?
00:09:45
Johnny
There's not there's no point in us being there.
00:09:47
officialgspn
No.
00:09:48
Johnny
He needs to look at his Calvert Lewin and his Astley Young and ah definitely Michael Keane.
00:09:56
officialgspn
I'm open. Yeah, Branthemic comes back.
00:09:56
Johnny
I don't know why he's starting with them all. They're not doing anything. Why is he starting with them all? Why not give the younger lads a chance and maybe bring the older guys on later to once they've secured the win?
00:10:08
officialgspn
Yeah. And there's also the thing about him right back, him bringing James Garner on or taking James Garner off and putting young on that right. Dixon now has played a couple of games.
00:10:16
Johnny
Yeah.
00:10:17
officialgspn
He hasn't looked the best, but he's he's going to learn more than a James Garner right back or or a national right back.
00:10:23
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:10:24
officialgspn
He's got it. Like he says, got to start using the young players a bit more. Trusting the team to be able to play for 90 minutes.
00:10:27
Johnny
Yeah. Well, that's where your future is. the young The younger players, not the older players, they can teach and maybe guide the younger ones, but the future is in the year the youth at Everton.
00:10:43
officialgspn
Yeah, young, I think maybe might be good, quite a good character to have around the team, just to kind of teach the young players the know-how.
00:10:49
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:10:49
officialgspn
But the toss-off is you've got young making a mistake, and the fans get on his back, or you bring Dickson on, he makes a mistake, and he's going to learn from it because he's only got 21.
00:11:00
officialgspn
So I'd like to maybe see him start against ah against Palace, but hopefully Patterson, who also is still a very young player, we will get a chance to um yet to play.
00:11:00
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:11:08
Johnny
Yeah.
00:11:12
Johnny
Well, you know, with Patterson, he gets stuck in, doesn't he? and He's a big, big lad. He can not play us off the ball. He can control.
00:11:12
officialgspn
speaking of
00:11:21
officialgspn
That's what I was going to say, yeah, with Patterson, he does bring that kind of more of a tenacity, more of an attacking fullback.
00:11:25
Johnny
president Yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's right, yeah.
00:11:30
officialgspn
And hopefully Micalenko will will we'll really cement the position this season and maybe try and get off the half halfway line a couple of times. It'll be nice. and Yeah.
00:11:40
officialgspn
Speaking of, of Dyson getting only a few games left, potentially obviously for our kidneys or freaking not in charge where you say it, he, uh, sacked the Rossi after, um, four games this season, three points after spending 90 of million quid.
00:11:52
Johnny
Yeah.
00:11:54
officialgspn
So firstly, we know that he's happy to put his hand in his wallet and and back the team.
Zencastr Advertisement
00:11:59
Johnny
yeah
00:11:59
officialgspn
Um, and also we also know that he's not afraid to to get rid of, get rid of managers. I don't think he'll, he'll survive on the dice past the season. So it'll be very interested to see what he does.
00:12:10
Johnny
Well, unless he unless he starts turning things around rapid, you ain't going to be lasting there. I said it at the beginning of the season, I do not believe that Deish will be there when we go into our new ground at the Bramley Mall Dock.
00:12:25
officialgspn
No. And there' there was also, wasn't there videos of the of the stadium yesterday that was going around Twitter? It's looking really nice.
00:12:31
Johnny
Oh, it looks amazing, yeah, yeah.
00:12:33
officialgspn
More. Have you been again since?
00:12:36
Johnny
No, not since said the other week now, but it's it's coming on really fast. And it's good news that Carly Minogue's coming to...
00:12:39
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:12:43
Johnny
she She's coming to Liverpool and she's signed some some dates and wants to play at the Bramley More dock next year instead of Anfield.
00:12:49
officialgspn
Oh, really?
00:12:52
Johnny
Yeah.
00:12:53
officialgspn
Oh, fantastic.
00:12:54
Johnny
Because we've got the best the best stadium, so Carly wants to play there.
00:12:59
officialgspn
Yeah, that was it. I was reading that I think before the new the new ground sets up in Premier League in August next year, they're doing some kind of test events. So I wonder if that's one of them.
00:13:06
Johnny
That's right, yes. It could well be, I think it is, yeah. Do some test events, start rolling out and fans and people yeah going into the the stadium until they build it up to like full capacity to see how everything works and things like that.
00:13:10
officialgspn
Fantastic.
00:13:20
officialgspn
a
00:13:21
Johnny
So that's what they will do.
00:13:23

Any excuse to get to the new stadium, I'll be there.
00:13:37

Dumb note, yeah, yeah.
00:13:37

00:14:42
Johnny
so
00:14:51
officialgspn
So it's just nice to have won over on Liverpool again, isn't it? We haven't had much of it, but I think we're starting to where we starting to turn turn that turn the corner.
00:14:56
Johnny
up there for a while now.
00:15:01
Johnny
Yeah.
00:15:01
officialgspn
um Obviously, they are doing well at the minute.
00:15:05
officialgspn
Did you see much of the City Arsenal game?
00:15:07
Johnny
I did. Yeah. Yeah.
00:15:10
officialgspn
bit of controversy around there with ah Michael Oliver again. He's done it to us a few times.
00:15:15
Johnny
Is that where he did he pull him down?
00:15:18
officialgspn
Yeah, he, um well, there was, there was a few, I think there was a couple of times where a Man City player kicked the ball away. Nothing happened. And I think Trossard from what I remember, did he kick the ball away or something?
00:15:33
officialgspn
It was like a something and a half after that.
00:15:33
Johnny
Yes.
00:15:35
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:15:35
Johnny
He picked the ball up and did he throw it at him?
00:15:38
officialgspn
That was Harland, Harland did that.
00:15:39
Johnny
Or Susan? Alan, yes. No, he didn't, no.
00:15:41
officialgspn
Yeah, didn't get booked for it. And then obviously Trusside kicks it all away and gets it off.
00:15:44
Johnny
Yeah. Yeah, I know.
00:15:48
officialgspn
So there was lots of controversy about that. and Obviously we won't need to worry about that side of the table just yet. But um it was nice to see, um it was nice to see a bit of a rivalry again, because we haven't, there isn't that much of that left in football really.
00:16:00
Johnny
No, no.
00:16:02
officialgspn
But yeah. Obviously we don't play Liverpool for a bit, I think it's December. That's the yeah the crunch time, December, because we've got a couple of, if we've got City, Arsenal, I'm sure we've got Chelsea in there, and then we've got Liverpool all in a row in in Christmas, so we need some need some results.
00:16:08
Johnny
Yeah.
00:16:17
officialgspn
How would you start the weekend then? is Obviously we've played all right against Leicester. Would you bring anyone in? I'm saying obviously Brent, it's fair.
00:16:25
Johnny
and probably I probably start with the same team, and but i'd leave out public key.
00:16:39
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:16:41
officialgspn
Leave Kean out, hopefully some Brantthwaite.
00:16:41
Johnny
I'll probably leave out Keem and see how Jung gets on. Who would we replace Keem with?
00:16:48
officialgspn
Brantthwaite if he's fit.
00:16:48
Johnny
Was it Brantway? hopefully he's o flu's back, yeah. I'll probably start with Brantway in there.
00:16:56
Johnny
and
00:16:57
officialgspn
Keep young.
00:17:02
Johnny
i
00:17:02
officialgspn
Depends if we've got another left back, really.
00:17:04
officialgspn
ah Right back, I suppose if Patterson's fit, he'll come in.
00:17:07
Johnny
Passers and fit, yeah. Passers and fit, I'd leave Jung on the bench.
00:17:11
officialgspn
Yeah. Do you know what? I'd really like to see. I'd like to see a three midfield of man gala, uh, Eric, and, or an address to Ghana gay or Ghana.
00:17:15
Johnny
man girl and
00:17:19
Johnny
That'd be strong, that.
00:17:19
officialgspn
I think I'd really like to see them three play together.
00:17:23
officialgspn
It would be because we've now we're starting to build the field of a team. Now we've got the two wingers and in high and Lindstrom are looking promising.
00:17:28
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:17:31
officialgspn
McNeil was looking really, really good at behind the striker. Actually, he's got the most chances created in the whole league.
00:17:38
Johnny
i it
00:17:39
officialgspn
Yeah. I know he's on set pieces, so he he'll drive up the numbers a bit. But yeah, he's above Odegard, above Sacker, he's number one. I don't know if that changed this weekend, but he's been he's been absolutely fantastic.
00:17:48
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:17:52
officialgspn
Calvert-Lewin just needs another goal under his belt, I think. He had a chance at the weekend.
00:17:56
Johnny
Yeah, he did.
00:17:56
officialgspn
It was a decent shot, but didn't didn't didn't ever look like scoring.
00:17:56
Johnny
Yeah.
00:18:04
officialgspn
But yeah, it'll just be whether or not he can stay fit, won't it?
00:18:08
Johnny
Yeah.
00:18:10
officialgspn
um So yeah, apart from that, would you um would you start anyone else? Or would you keep the ah the front four?
00:18:15
Johnny
Where's the other guy? Is it Joe A. Virginia? Who's that guy?
00:18:20
officialgspn
Yeah, it's whether or not he could potentially come in for Pickford. I think, yeah, we forgot to mention that the list is gold. Call coming in and Pickford didn't come for it.
00:18:31
Johnny
Yeah.
00:18:33
officialgspn
javain i think deserves a co i think at this point
00:18:33
Johnny
ah He's been...
00:18:36
Johnny
Yeah, he does, yeah, yeah. is ah it can He's quite controversial pick for the knee if he doesn't stay on his line. or at the moment he's just not, you know, I probably will give the other guy a little chance.
00:18:49
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:18:52
officialgspn
And especially against Newcastle coming up, because I think he was dropped against Newcastle last time they played.
00:18:54
Johnny
Yeah.
00:18:58
Johnny
Yeah, yeah.
00:18:59
officialgspn
So I wouldn't necessarily say for Pickford to go out, but I think if there's any a time for it is now we're struggling.
00:19:06
Johnny
Yeah.
00:19:08
officialgspn
And have you got any any signings that you'd like to see, obviously, with with the new with the new owners? Is there anyone in particular that you think you maybe would be in for? I haven't really had a look.
00:19:18
Johnny
and
00:19:22
Johnny
Erm... I've not had a look myself, no, no.
00:19:25
officialgspn
trying to think of a left back that we could, we need, yeah, we need a left back. So someone maybe from the championship that's coming in, I think the scouts need to have a look at that. And I think we need to have a look at a right back as as well. But apart from that, I think we're actually looking really strong.
00:19:38
Johnny
Are you happy with the strikers?
00:19:41
officialgspn
I'm happy with them for the minute. I think, yeah, well, it's whether or not Kavaluin stays or not.
00:19:46
Johnny
Does he want to stay?
00:19:47
officialgspn
Would you say, would you say get rid of them anyway?
00:19:49
Johnny
Yeah, I would. I'd just go, see you mate, back to modelling.
00:19:54
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:19:57
officialgspn
ah think I ah think he pretty he does yeah he he brit he does bring the physicality, he does bring other people into it.
00:20:04
Johnny
Yeah.
00:20:05
officialgspn
Are you in the kind of the camp that he just doesn't score enough and he can't finish? because
00:20:08
Johnny
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I am yeah.
00:20:11
Johnny
I do like him, he has been great for Everton, but he just doesn't do enough for me to You know, as a striker, I want a striker at Goodison like Graham Sharp or Andy Gray.
00:20:11
officialgspn
yeah
Closing Remarks and Predictions
00:20:24
Johnny
They're the they're the strikers I grew up with. like And they would just be there everywhere. ah Like Andy Gray used to head the balls that were on the floor, like getting it back in the net. And Calvert Lewin's not that sort of player. I want to see a a real number nine, a Duncan Ferguson, a player that's going to frighten the other team.
00:20:44
officialgspn
I think it's telling that Villa can bring on that Duran, who you I really like, Everton.
00:20:44
Johnny
and
00:20:47
Johnny
Yeah.
00:20:50
officialgspn
And they bring him on, they've already got Watkins, they don't they don't need another striker, do they?
00:20:54
Johnny
and That's right, yeah.
00:20:55
officialgspn

officialgspn

00:21:30
officialgspn

00:21:31
Johnny
Oh, I know. But we I always like to believe.
00:21:35
officialgspn
Yeah, me too. Yeah, I'm going to go with a three now. I think Calvert-Lewin's going to prove you wrong. He'll get two and then Dye's going to keep on with the yeah with the streak and he's um he's going to...
00:21:42
Johnny
Yeah.
00:21:47
officialgspn
It will leave at the end of the season. He's going to go to a proper... ah ah ah proper um a proper team that takes players away, like an Arsenal, that they're usually fish players away.
00:21:56
Johnny
Yeah.
00:21:57
officialgspn
um Obviously not on the proper sense because we are the proper club. um Well, thank you very much for ah for that i again. It has been more of a positive one, hasn't it? it's it so Things are feeling a little bit better around Goodison and around the ah the Everton fanbase.
00:22:06
