00:00On to Everton and obviously in terms of the line-up issues up top, one week it's Beto,
00:08one week it's Calvert-Lewin at the moment. Beto then equalises against Fulham in a real
00:14lay at Goodison Park and then he goes with Calvert-Lewin away at Southampton. What's
00:20the sort of situation you can tell us? What are the fans wanting and what's the sort of
00:25reaction to this chopping and changing between the two? How do you sort of get the best out
00:28of both of them? It's quite a bit of a headache at the moment for Sean Nightship it seems.
00:33Yeah, it's been Calvert-Lewin starting for the most part, but as you say in the last
00:37two games Beto has come on and made an impact. But when Beto started games in the past has
00:45he made that same impact as when he's come off the bench and legs the tyres. But it comes
00:52back to at Everton playing to his strengths as well. Obviously when you think of Calvert-Lewin
00:56you think of that season under Carlo Ancelotti and a lot of his finishes were one-touch finishes
01:03in and around the six, eight-yard line.
01:07And Jarrod Brantway, obviously we mentioned him in the summer, a massive name for them.
01:11Looking at his stats last season, 41 games played, obviously only three so far, one start,
01:1996 minutes. What does he sort of have to do to get into this side and is it as simple
01:24as just casting him straight back in because he has that quality?
01:28Yeah, it's been a surprise that he hasn't come back in, if truth be told, because he's
01:34Everton's best player. Let's be frank, maybe bar Jordan Pickford, he's Everton's best player
01:41and we've seen how good he was last season. Broke into the England set-up, was targeted
01:46by Manchester United, obviously had his injury issues. I can understand to some extent why
01:55Sean Dyche had him put back in because the defensive partnership we're doing quite well.
02:00But A, Everton have been beaten now so you maybe do change your team and B, you should
02:07always, as an agent, you should always play your best team.
02:11There are some fans as well looking at James Tarkowski now thinking, does his form maybe
02:16warrant him losing his spot for Gerrard Brown if we even make a move and Michael Keane to
02:20the right? Because he's been carrying a couple of injuries, James Tarkowski, I think some
02:25minor injuries and he hasn't looked his best, to be honest. That tackle that he flew into
02:31Cameron Archer at the weekend, that ends in a yellow card, there were some thinking he
02:37could have been off there the way he flew into him. But I think heading to West Ham,
02:42Sean Dyche, he's under a little bit of pressure now to deliver after losing to Southampton.
02:48You've got to play your best team and your best team is with Gerrard Brown fighting it.
02:52If he's a £17m defender, that's what he's rated at, then you've got to get him into your team.
