00:00So, Will, Everton coming back from their pre-season tour as well.
00:05In terms of stand-out players, we've mentioned they've lost, obviously,
00:10Anana, who could have had a fantastic season. He's gone to Aston Villa now.
00:17Jared Brantway obviously had a fantastic season last time out.
00:19Is he still hitting those same heights in pre-season so far?
00:23Who's stood out for you?
00:25Well, Brantway hasn't played yet because he's had minor surgery with a groin issue.
00:31So, that's a little bit of a disappointing one, let's just say.
00:34Everton fans will be looking forward to seeing him back.
00:38I think in pre-season so far, I've been really impressed by one of the sonsigns,
00:43Tim Iribonne. He looks composed on the ball, he looks tenacious in midfield.
00:50Looks like a good little bit of business, that. He still is only young,
00:53but he looks sharp. Jack Harrison as well has had a good pre-season so far,
00:58and it was interesting because both him and Sean Dyche have said that
01:02there's more to come from Jack Harrison. Obviously, Everton getting him back.
01:05And, yeah, he missed the start of last season because he arrived with a hip injury,
01:09and he probably played too many games for his own liking
01:14because Everton didn't have enough options in the wide areas.
01:17So, Jack Harrison has looked fairly decent.
01:23So, those are probably the two standouts.
01:25There's been more about fitness so far for Everton.
01:27As we speak in the games, you know, they drew against Slago Rovers,
01:31and they lost to Salford and to Coventry.
01:34But Sean Dyche has said he's worked the players hard,
01:37and after he won at Preston, he looked good.
01:42Dominic Calvert-Lewin, after struggles, he looked pretty sharp.
01:45Won the penalty, put the penalty home.
01:49Obviously, it's an interesting few weeks when it comes to Calvert-Lewin's future,
01:52given he's into his final year of his deal.
01:54And to Everton, stick or twist if an offer comes in.
01:57And then just in terms of the new signing,
02:02Jake O'Brien made his debut at Preston,
02:04looked pretty decent, scored a good goal.
02:07And Jesper Lindstrom as well, who's arrived on the season long loan from Napoli,
02:10whipped home a fantastic free kick.
02:12I think he maybe might take a little bit of time
02:15to get used to the physicality of the Premier League.
02:19Maybe Everton will get him in the gym to just bulk him up a little bit.
02:23But he looks a clever player,
02:25looks like someone who can get you off your seat.
02:27And yeah, I think there's still a little bit of work to be done for Everton
02:31in the transfer window, if they can stretch the finances.
02:34But I've come with some stars,
02:36and yeah, all eyes are on the first game of the season against Brighton now.
