Sean Dyche addressed the media ahead of his side's game with Nottingham Forest in the Premier League this weekend after losing out against Manchester United last time out.
The Toffees face off against Forest at the City Ground on Saturday evening and will be hoping to turn the tide after their 10-point deduction which has left them scrambling in the relegation zone.
There are some key doubts for the game with Amadou Onana and Dominic Calvert-Lewin and there's also decisions to be made across the team for the Everton manager.
Ahead of the game, LiverpoolWorld was in attendance and we've collected all of the key quotes and topics from Dyche.
5. Threat of Nottingham Forest
"They've had a strong home record since coming back into the league. Good people there trying to do a good job, the Premier League is a hard league. They stayed up and the expectation has risen, that's part of being in the league. It's a big club that was out of the division for a long time and now it's back in it, so expectations will rise." | AFP via Getty Images
!["Nathan needs to keep doing what he's doing, he's still relatively young and inexperienced in the grand scheme of the Premier League. He's still developing, but with the age and understanding and experience of Seamus [Coleman] and [Ashley] Young. But they know deep down that they are not the future of the position, as Nathan is. He is growing and maturing all the time, Patterson has more to come but I think he's a very good player."](https://www.thestar.co.uk/jpim-static/image/2023/10/09/15/newFile-10.jpg?trim=0,0,0,0&crop=&width=800)

7. Frustrations against Man United
"We have to reinforce to the players the positives. Of course you have to iron out the details, which is huge in football, but reinforcing the ongoing form side because I think our form has been strong for a number of games going into the next game." | Getty Images
8. Doucoure's form
"He brings energy and commitment to the cause, he can find goals and assists. He doesn't lose faith easily after missing a chance and that is a really good focus for a player of his quality. He is a very good team player." | Getty Images
