Mikel Arteta is out of Everton’s next Premiership encounter with Sunderland and could face even longer on the sidelines. Despite the International break, Arteta will need further rest for the groin strain picked up in the UEFA Cup clash with Nurnberg. Everton will apparently reassess the injury over the coming weeks.
Arteta is a Fantasy favourite, the creative force behind the Everton side and his injury will create a rising interest in Tim Cahill who now seems assured of a start, regardless of Moyes’ chosen formation.
