Press Conference thread

Your remembered last year how a lot of people loved his press conferences work "you can tell how much he hates the media"?

Yeah, it isn't that, it's that he's an uninspiring and uncharismatic person.
 

SOME OF THE SILVA PRE MATCH BRIGHTON P/C

Silva on VAR and Mina's disallowed goal
I didn't understand (why Mina's goal was disallowed.) We didn't see anything for the referee to blow the whistle. It was hard to understand. It was a little bit strange the whole situation.

We can talk about our game and not just that goal but some others. It's really difficult to understand.
In that moment if the referee leaves the game and then later can see what everyone sees it is a better decision.

My opinion is they should give the best support to the referee.
I think them needing to go and see the screen is not necessary.
The people are there with the screens to see if it is a mistake or not.

Mina injury update
Not so good, not so good at the moment.
Let’s see how he is tomorrow and on the matchday as well.
He’s not seriously injured but he is not ready to work with the team in a full session

Silva on Holgate
"I'm 100% sure if he has the chance he will be ready to perform at this level."

Delph is available
Silva says Delph and Schneiderlin back in full training and available

Silva on selection dilemma
“A good headache is what I want, that’s what happens when we achieve a good result.
This is the headache I like to have. It’s up to them to keep working.”

More on selection: "It was a good week, good competition between them. It's up to me on Saturday.
Normally I have one plan, we are working on that plan. We have 48 hours until the game and the things are clear in my mind.


Must-win game
We have to build on that and believe it was a turning point. We have to play that way always, that pride in ourselves and desire to win the game.
It's [Brighton] a must win game for us again."


Silva on Brighton
They have quality in their football, the model they are trying to build is clear. It will be a tough game.
They need points, but we need them as well. We should go there with a win in our mind, but they are thinking the same.


Silva on PL table
We want to go for the position as high as you can in the table.
It was not so good before the last game. It’s not what you want or our goal.
We reacted and we will react again.


Silva on away record
Being the most honest as possible, what we are doing away is not good enough.
It is not good enough what we are doing away. We have to look at this game thinking about it as our first win away.
With this desire, scoring goals and being solid, we can win away games in the Premier League."


Silva on squad mood
The mood is completely different like you expect.
We came from a tough month before the West Ham match.
The mood was not best as is not normal for a big club like Everton Football Club.
We showed our quality on the pitch and our desire to change the performances and results.
After the result we knew we'd got three points, there was much more to keep improving. This week was different, working hard like always."

Silva on his own Mood
I'm feeling more happy, like is normal. My players performed really well, not just because of individuals but as a team as well.
It's everything I like to see from my team, I'm proud of my players and the fans as well."

A lot better, he has to be demanding more of himself and of the players, good for him to admit the away form is a joke and out it on himself and the players to put that right pronto

Need to see hard evidence on the pitch, but I like the fact he is acknowledging what are known problems rather than hiding from them.
On the other hand, its still of huge concern that getting players to go out with pride and desire seems to be such a tall order on such a regular basis.

We have to build on that and believe it was a turning point. We have to play that way always, that pride in ourselves and desire to win the game.

Whilst one should never tinker with a winning team, Brighton away is a very different prospect from WHAM at Goodison. I would proffer that the same team and formation would find it hard to break BHA down and get overrun in midfield. The midfield needs a bit more bite and we should switch more of the attacking focus to the wide areas rather than centrally. That would suggest including Delph for Davies perhaps and a front 3 of Richarlisson, DCL and Walcott (painful to write)
