Thats unusual Eggs ...why so ?

..well it wasn’t listed on BBC website, I presume because we play Sunday.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

It'll be tomorrow.

Usually they are about 48 hours before a game so I was not expecting one today.

It is generally a Friday press conference when we are playing on the Sunday.

It’ll be short and sweet
You can tell Marco hates dealing with the press
He treats them as a necessary evil
Unlike BBS and FSA who loved them and used them as a platform to blow smoke up their own backsides

13:30 start time.

Possibility of Gueye being fit for Sunday.

 

[Chris O'Connor]

Possibility of Gueye being fit for Sunday.

Sounded as if unlikely to me, but getting better and tomorrow and Sunday hopefully could change it, so more hopeful than expecting with likelihood not.

If it's only 1%, it's still a possibility.

Marco Silva Crystal Palace press conference highlights:

Watched and analysed all Everton players on international duty.
Worst part of international football is when players pick up injuries or bad habits.
It's his (the manager) job to deal with them issues and guide the players back to correct habits.
Gueye has come back 'with an issue'.
The competition for places is strong now so players will naturally improve if the are to be in the first 11.
With Mina McCarthy Gomes etc coming back its now a nightmare to pick the strongest 11 but it's exactly what Silva wants.
The squad is now very strong.
Gomes Mina and McCarthy all fully fit and ready to face Palace if needed.
Not only Mina but Jags need to prove themselves in training to show they should be part of our 11 as CB competition is fierce.
The management team are excited about how well Richarlison Sigurdsson and Bernard have played together but Lookman DCL and Tuson fighting hard to get in that team.
The team will be even stronger with FULL support from the fans.
Decision on Gueye to be taken Sunday morning.
Have to be at our best to beat Palace. We need good balance and a way to score.
In the last few days things have clicked and have become very enjoyable in training for all involved. Good spirit and everyone is excited about the future.
Talks with Brands and the board have taken place about transfer targets but now Silva will concentrate on managing the team whilst the others plot any recruitment.
Training between players is getting more competitive as they all want to be involved.
We know exactly what we need to bring in during the January transfer window.

..the other interesting point he made is the problem with ‘players not playing on international duty’ and missing some sharpness.

I've never considered that actually, as we know during the last international we arranged a closed doors match to bring up the fitness of Mina and Gomes, I hope this is something we will do every international to keep players sharp but yeah, no good for a player who goes away and trains differently for two weeks and doesn't even play

Good Presser - all good news! He corrected 'my' to 'our' a couple of times. He is surely being schooled in this post BFS.
