00:00Do you feel like Everton have suddenly turned a massive corner in terms of pull towards
00:18maybe players looking at Everton? They've scraped down the bottom of the league for
00:24their life at times. It's gone to the last day at times as well to survive. Now suddenly
00:29a real proven manager who's just won a European tournament not so long ago and then a fresh
00:35stadium, fresh owners, new ambitions. It certainly looks a lot more positive you'd say.
00:40Yes, definitely. Everton are going into a new era on the Liverpool waterfront. The stadium
00:48is incredible. They've got a manager who's as experienced as he comes but he's always
00:57learning. He's always ready to change his ways a little bit, which is a big boost. We
01:05signed some really good players when he was at West Ham, David Moyes, Alex Kuzos, Paqueta
01:11and all of us. Zucek has been a really good servant for them. People will be looking at
01:18that and thinking, well, he went and won a European trophy at West Ham. Why couldn't
01:22we go and do that with Everton? New stadium. Sean Dyche did a great job but did some players
01:31want to play that style of football? You've got to be realistic. Did they fancy playing
01:35a Sean Dyche style? Probably not. Not a lot did. Maybe that made Everton's task a little
01:42bit more difficult. Any players maybe arriving and thinking, well, we'll be in a relegation
01:48battle now. Do I want to go to Everton and do that or do I want to go somewhere else?
01:52No. You'd like to think going into next season, that's going to be the case. That's not going
01:57to be the case. They'll be looking upwards and that's what David Moyes is very much doing.
02:02He's saying it's going to be gradual steps but he's already talking about getting Everton
02:06challenging for Europe again and that's what Evertonians want to hear. They don't want
02:11to be in the lower echelons thinking a 15th place finish will be fine. They want to be
02:19back to where they belong and that's fighting for Europe. The way to do that is to attract
02:24top players.
