that will be a big blow to everton
I did not even know FOOTBALL existed in BELGIUM.I haven't watched one of their games before o
I believe the player would be needed.The medical should also do all they can to reduce the time he'll b out for.Such players should be injury-free
Everton can cope without him.The management of the team had done all the work from the beginning by signing lots of dope players.There are so many replacements
