How did Everton secure their victory against Newcastle?
A new series of Westworld has just started on Sky Atlantic and catch up on Series 1 on Catch Up Right Now. Our guest tonight is the Belgian manager Roberto Martinez here with Thierry Henry. We'll hear their thoughts in just a moment. Before then, we can speak to tonight's match winner, Theo Walcott. Very good evening to you, Theo. Congratulations. Thanks for speaking to us as well. How satisfying was that?
Yeah, very satisfying, actually, to be honest. You know, we were under a lot of pressure towards the end there.
What strategies did Everton use to maintain their lead?
We held on, and you ask Thierry, as any striker, if it finishes 1-0, you've done your job.
It did feel like they were coming back into the game. Why do you think that was, Theo?
I felt that we did allow a lot of pressure. We started to get deeper and deeper. I think before that, Jonjo got on the ball a lot more and started to control it, and then obviously he came off. But they put us under a lot of pressure towards the end, and I've got to say, Seamus' defensive header at the end was just as good as my goal really was.
Yeah, did that feel like a really match-defining moment?
Yeah, completely. You know, it's the last kick of the game, obviously.
How did the players react to the pressure during the match?
Everyone was switched on. Everyone did their defensive jobs. The fans tonight were fantastic, all behind us. That's what we want. And it was a much-needed three points after, you know, a couple of disappointing results.
We saw you switching flanks at time during the game, Theo. Was that something that you talked about beforehand with the manager or just something he decided on the evening?
No, the gaffer felt he wanted to change it at half-time. We were getting a lot of joy on the right-hand side and he wanted to change it. And, you know, it was a sense that, you know, coming inside to finish off the game onto my stronger foot, get a bit closer to Cenk and play off him a bit more.
What insights did Thierry Henry and Roberto Martinez share about the game?
And it worked. It definitely worked. But we still had to get control of the game and kill it off, really. You know, we want to kill off games like that. It was there to, you know, there's a few goals in there tonight, but I'm glad the guys, they dug in tonight. I can't even get my breath back.
Theo, this is Thierry. Well done on the goal and the win, much needed win. I wanted to ask you something. Since we're talking about switching and you being on the left at time tonight, why you never actually...
What are the implications of Everton's recent performance for the season?
enjoyed not enjoyed playing there but playing there on the wing because you can bend the ball well i've seen it so many times when you can curve it in the top corner and you can be lethal playing on the left i still find it difficult to see you with that shirt but anyway that's only me
You're not used to it now. No, I'm used to it. No, no, no. It's something I'm used to. I'm thinking about next season more so. I think the gaff is trying it out a little bit more. And, yeah, I've scored a lot of good goals on the left-hand side to join in with, especially when you have one man up front. I feel like at times you can be isolated up front on your own. But, you know, the fact I can have licence to come in off the line and to get involved a bit more in the game and, obviously, to get a goal, a much-needed goal for the team and me personally.
How do the managers view the expectations from Everton fans?
Yeah, I think you're going to see me a lot more on the left-hand side now.
