Defender in at deep end as Everton squad wilts
Everton's Tony Hibbert may be rushed straight back into the first team squad due to David Moyes' decimated squad.
The versatile defender has been out of action since 18th October, after sustaining a thigh strain against Arsenal and he is now in contention for Saturday's game at Manchester City.
Moyes explained: "He might have to come straight into the squad at the weekend because we're so short of numbers."
Risk
"But we won't take any chances."
"We've got a nine day break until the next match after Manchester City, but then they come thick and fast over the Christmas period, with three in six days."
The Toffees boss added: "We want as many players up and running as possible for that spell."
