Latest Everton news as manager Sean Dyche briefs the media ahead of Saturday's trip to Crystal Palace
Everton manager Sean Dyche will be hoping to extend his side’s unbeaten run to four games as they travel to Crystal Palace on Saturday and the Blues boss was quizzed about all the hot topics around the club on Thursday afternoon in his pre-match press conference at their Finch Farm training base in Halewood.
“I think that’s where we get a little bit lost in it as managers, coaches and players – and I think the fans as well. I am still a fan of it, I’ve got to be honest because the margins are tight and they’re very, very important – it’s top level sport with top level outcomes – that can financially make a massive difference in football from big, important decisions.
Dyche added: “It was just a conversation I had with him and he brought something up I thought was really important and shared it with the players. We were having an honest conversation and he described it really well, this idea of direct play, people presuppose that means kicking the ball down the pitch – no it doesn’t – and he was on it straight away.“He said: ‘Maybe the players need a bit more correcting with that?’ So I told the players of the conversation.
Asked if Godfrey was still in his plans, the Everton manager said: “Yes, he’s doing terrifically well for us. He’s training very well, he’s staying sharp and ready.
