Pickford: Gerber 10 joins prove that Everton has ambitions; not afraid of competing with Trafford

Hupu, August 24th, editor-in-chief of Daily Telegraph, Jason Burt, exclusive interview with Everton goalkeeper Pickford.

Pickford sent him a straightforward text message after learning that his friend Jack Gallish had the opportunity to join Everton.

"Hurry up!" the England goalkeeper quipped.

"Jack and I are good friends. After hearing this rumor, I sent him a few messages. He asked how the club is and how the surroundings are. I said you would love here if you come.

I talked with him a few times, and then saw a tweet (that implies that the deal has been completed), so I called him directly. I was on the golf course at the time and asked him, 'When are you coming?' He said it was basically done. I thought, everything is going to be fine now!

I said this place is great, the players are great, the staff are great, people say it is People's Club, Home real home club.

I looked at him, how good he performed when Manchester City won the triple-tall. He played most of the games. I watched a clip of Manchester City against Liverpool the other day, and he chased Salah back and blocked a ball.

You can see his ability to control the ball, but you can see what the offense and defense meant to him when you see such a performance. He worked hard to do it with or without the ball. There is a World Cup next year, if he plays here... I think everyone knows he will perform well here."

Pickford talked about Everton's reconstruction.

"Everyone knows what kind of person Jack is. He comes and illuminates the entire court. You should look at his training and see his level. He is a very top player and bringing him to Everton is a great deal.

This reflects the ambition of the club and the expectations of the bosses - that is success. Buy him and Hall - this level is very high.

The ambition of the club is to rush to Europe. Everyone wants to play in the European game, but Everton's performance at the top in the past few years means we have never really got the ability to go further in the league and qualify for the European game.

Hope this is a good year. We won't say we can make it into the European game this season, but we have ambitions and hope to reach Everton Football Club The club deserves ranking, and it’s in the top half of the standings. The key is that we have good performance every week, and no matter what the result is, we will do our best.

Kirnan won the UEFA Champions League and the Club World Cup with Chelsea. We have a group of players who have won the championship. They will work hard, do their best, show their strength, and we must follow them. We must have leaders.

Everyone must lead in their own way. We have leaders who dare to speak out, and we have people who lead in different ways. Everyone must motivate each other and strive to be the best version of Everton and be worthy of the team’s logo. "

As a veteran player in Moyes' luxury new locker room, Pickford is one of the key influencers.

"Is this my eighth or ninth season? My ninth season? Damn, this is just something on paper!"

The World Cup is coming, and Trafford will also contribute to Manchester City's road to winning the championship, and Pickford has a good evaluation of his juniors.

"For several years, people have wanted to strip my (England) jerseys, I will continue to work hard, continue to show my level, and having good competition is always good. Whether in clubs or national teams, you want to fight for the jerseys because it can inspire the best of you.

There will always be questions. But the only thing that is undoubtedly Harry Kane wearing the English jerseys. There are positions to compete everywhere. You will always encounter competition, you must thrive in the competition, you must be brave to take responsibility and constantly improve yourself.

Don't let anyone take your jersey away, it's yours, you must protect it, and keep improving. I'm going to work hard for Everton's team badge, which will lead me to success for the English team badge."
