-TIMESTAMPS-
00:00 - Intro.
00:14 - Ben white: he's out. Not major but out for a few games.
00:27 - Not major?: I don't think so. He's a fast healer.
00:45 - Gabriel for Villa?: He's pushing hard. Evolving well and not too far. We're positive.
01:25 - No Zubimendi training?: Just load management.
01:43 - Six years in charge: it's gone fast. A lot has happened. Incredible journey.
02:10 - New stadium for Everton: Strange but exciting. Goodison was one of the lost iconic stadium. Opportunity to win there.
02:41 - Goodison bogie stadium:
03:00 - Win tomorrow?: We have to go there to win.
03:58 - Premier league festive period: that's it different. A lot happens in your professional and personal life. Blessed to have opportunity to play when everyone is on holiday.
04:13 - Zubimendi manage workload: small windows we have, to try look after him. Every chance you get that you have to. He's coping really well.
04:55 - Maintain connection with fans in new stadium: I imagine that's what Everton have tried to do. It takes time.
05:22 - culture change: was the first foundation. You need a lot of good people, we've aligned that. The transformation of the club is very consistent.
06:13 - transformation down to you?: one man cannot change a club this size. You need a group of committed people, I'm lucky because I've had that. The most important ones is the players.
07:03 - David Moyes: gratitude and admiration. He's been an example of how to behave.
07:51 - what's do you want to Christmas?: win win win.
08:09 - Chances you'd last six years?: I come to a club in a difficult phase, I don't know. You take it day by day.
08:56 - Merino: he's an option.
09:15 - Merino natural fit for team?: He's a player he's done his job with his qualities. Viktor and Gabby as well.
09:42 - Havertz: Progressing well. Really positive he's going to be with us soon.
10:19 - Away form wobbles: it's about consistency. We've lost 1 in 21 away, but you have to hit perfection. We've lost two games with the last kits of the game.
11:02 - What have you done this week?: the consistent energy, but the defensive habits which we've worked on.
11:42 - Intimidating atmospheres gone?: it's going to be different to the last one, but it will bring good or positive things.
12:18 - Forward options: we're in December, I've had no options in the forward line and loads of options in defence. Headache is giving game time.
13:00 - timeline for Havertz?: We need to be cautious and firm with when he's back.
13:29 - Assess Gyokeres: level of attention hasn't changed since he joined. We brought a player with an incredible goalscorer who needed to adapt with no preseason. He had a good spell then got injured.
14:30 - Level of attention caught him by surprise?: You have to expect the global impact then you have
