Everything you need to know about Everton injuries following David Moyes' pre-Bournemouth press conference...
What happened: David Moyes addressed the media on Monday morning to preview Everton’s upcoming Premier League game against Bournemouth. The Blues take on the Cherries at the Vitality Stadium on Tuesday night.
Players who are injured: Seamus Coleman, Merlin Rohl, Jarrad Branthwaite and Nathan Patterson all missed Saturday’s 4-1 defeat to Newcastle United due to injury. While Idrissa Gueye was suspended after being sent off against Manchester United.
What got said: Asked about squad availability for tomorrow’s game, Moyes revealed a couple of his players faced Newcastle with minor niggles. However, he did also confirm he has no new injury concerns.
David Moyes insight:Moyes said: "We're looking okay. But we went into Newcastle carrying a couple of boys with injuries from the game in midweek. They played. Possibly, on another day, if we'd have had other players available, we might have altered that.”
More on injuries:On his four injured players, Moyes said: "None of them are available for the game. We're missing Merlin at the moment, the extra midfield player. Seamus would have given us extra cover at right-back and, with Jarrad out, we're limited at what we have available at centre-back as well."
Bournemouth injury latest: The Cherries will be without Lewis Cook, Marcos Senesi and David Brooks due to suspension. While Ben Gannon-Doak and Ryan Christie are also sidelined through injury.
