May 13th Everton defender Tarkovsky was interviewed by the club's official website, and he talked about many stories about himself and the team's home court Goodison Park.

The earliest memory of Goodison?

That was Wayne Rooney's goal to defeat Arsenal, I've watched it on TV.

Your first goal in Goodison?

is a game against Arsenal! McNeill passed the ball and I headed the ball. It was a great day, for the team and for me personally. (Everton 1-0 Arsenal in the 22nd round of Premier League season 22-23)

The best atmosphere you have ever experienced in Goodison?

This is hard to answer, the relegation night against Bournemouth and the victory at the Merseyside derby last season were great. When the final whistle sounded, the atmosphere here was really wonderful.

If you were to come to the game as a fan, where would you choose to sit?

Good question, to be honest, I want to sit near the coach's seat. I certainly know how good the atmosphere is on Glades Street, but I still want to sit in the coach's seat because I think the best results are there to watch the game.

The best memory about Goodison?

This is a good answer, which is that I helped the team draw in the Merseyside derby at the last moment of the season. This is not only my favorite Goodison memory, but also my favorite memory in my football career.

What do you like most about Goodison?

The atmosphere here.

Which home jersey is your favorite?

is from this season!

Describe Goodison Park in three words?

Boiling, passionate and full of vitality.

What is the best song you heard in Goodison?

"Blue Spirit"! (Spirit of the Blues Everton Fan Song)

The most interesting thing you've witnessed in Goodison?

This is not a good answer, and although a bit controversial, I often recall the tackle I played against Richarlison when I was playing at Burnley, which was so bad, but also hilarious. So, sorry Richarlison! That's all I can say.
