00:00Now a pivotal summer awaits at Everton under David Moyes
00:07With Premier League safety looking secure
00:09Attention is turning to how the club can evolve and push forward for the future
00:14Several key decisions loom large
00:17Outgoings, fresh additions and a clearer long-term vision
00:21Moyes is expected to put his stamp on the squad
00:24With experience and consistency at the heart of his plans
00:27After a season of stability, the Toffees are aiming to take the next step
00:32I spoke to Will Rooney of Liverpool World about Everton's upcoming summer
00:36What his influence and what changes fans can expect
00:40As the club looks to build a stronger, more competitive side
00:44Do you feel maybe the honeymoon period with David Moyes possibly is over now?
00:52Obviously, first league loss in 10 games
00:55But they haven't actually won in five of those
00:57There's a lot of draws in there
00:58He's obviously made them a lot harder to beat and break down
01:01But how do you sort of see the tactics going and shifting in these final few games?
01:08Yeah, as you say, they haven't won in five games, I think it is
01:12To be fair, the 2-2 draw against Man Utd
01:16They should have won that game
01:17They'll be sick, they threw that one away
01:18But drawn at Brentford, not a bad result
01:21And isolation Wolves
01:23Performance wasn't quite there
01:26Against West Ham as well at home
01:27Performance wasn't quite there
01:29And he needs a late equaliser to get that one
01:34To the statement Moyes' look of things
01:36And I don't want to say going stale
01:37Because it's harsh on the players
01:38And David Moyes, he hasn't had an awful lot of players to work with
01:41But it'll help having the likes of Illaman and Daya back
01:45He's going to have to build fitness up
01:46And Dwight McNeil's getting there
01:48But statement Moyes may be looking
01:50Try and change a couple of things
01:52Jake O'Brien's been excellent at right back
01:55But does he look and think
01:57Well, maybe can we go a little bit more attacking
01:59To give Nathan Patterson a go
02:01Either right back or left back
02:02To maybe look at changing the formation
02:04Because it'll play with wing backs
02:06Now Armando Broge is back
02:08Beto
02:09As far as a scoring boost
02:12If he hasn't netted in five games
02:13I think
02:14Does he look at Broge and think
02:15Well, maybe a little bit more of a focal point
02:18Someone who can bring others into play
02:20And can also carry a threat as well
02:22On the counter-attack
02:23Do a look at him
02:25And does David Moyes start looking at the rest of the season
02:27And I think
02:28I need to get a feel for the players
02:31I really want to keep at this club next season
02:33Because we've talked about
02:34How many players are out of contract
02:37And some players
02:40The likes of St. Nathan Patterson
02:42Who hasn't played a lot of football
02:43In his three years
02:44Since he arrived
02:45Because of injuries
02:46And being out of favour
02:47Players like him
02:48Armando Broge
02:49Is looking and thinking
02:50Well, maybe if he does well
02:52In the last eight games
02:53We could get him back on loan again
02:54Potentially
02:55Just things like that
02:57Really
02:57I don't want to say experiment
02:59Because I don't think
03:00Dave Moyes wants to do that
03:02But he'll definitely be planning
03:04For the next season
03:06I think
03:06As I say
03:07I don't think he's gone stale
03:09I haven't shown real resilience
03:10Resistance
03:11But maybe they just need
03:14A couple of tweaks
03:15Just to freshen things up again
03:17Because
03:18I don't know
03:20It's hard when you get beat by a team
03:22By Liverpool
03:22You know how much quality there is
03:24But can they just rejuvenate
03:27A couple of things
03:28And bring that pet back
03:29Into the step again
03:30Like he has on Moyes
03:32In his first few games
03:33Yeah, obviously
03:35Just in terms of next season
03:38The rebuild
03:38Obviously the ownership
03:39And the new stadium
03:41Changed
03:42A lot to be
03:42You know
03:43Changed across the summer
03:44For Everton
03:45Do you feel there's
03:47A certain core of players
03:49That Everton need to keep
03:51In terms of
03:52You know
03:52These players who can rebuild
03:53For the future
03:54And Moyes is really impressed
03:55With them so far
03:56Is there anyone
03:57That sort of stands out
03:58You know
03:59In parts it is quite an ageing squad
04:01But there is also
04:02Some real fresh
04:03And young talent
04:04In there as well
04:04The one you want to keep
04:07Is obviously
04:07Jared Branfway
04:08Whether Everton can keep hold of him
04:10I'm not too sure
04:11We discussed this
04:12And we recently
04:13Report about him
04:14Not being an England squad
04:15But
04:16David Moyes says
04:18Exactly what I said
04:19Phil Jagielka
04:20And Leighton Baines
04:21On the squad
04:21Jolien Lescott as well
04:23So if you could build a team
04:25Around Jack Branfway
04:26And him to be
04:27A real better off
04:28Of your team
04:29And improve to yourself
04:30Or
04:30Maybe you could go elsewhere
04:33You might play more football
04:34But
04:35It might be
04:36As good as a club
04:37To play for
04:38So
04:38Definitely a lot of things
04:40For boys and recruiting
04:41And staff
04:42To consider
04:42Head into the future
04:43And
04:44Let's do dzisiaj
04:48Let's link to the committee
04:50df
04:51The next one
04:51Bye
04:52Bye
