David Moyes speaking ahead of Everton’s game against Bournemouth<\/p>\nDavid Moyes has been speaking to the media ahead of Everton’s Premier League game against Bournemouth on Tuesday nightDavid Moyes speaking ahead of Everton’s game against Bournemouth<\/p>\n
David Moyes has confirmed Everton have no new injury concerns – but revealed a number of his squad are currently playing with niggles. After beating Manchester United with 10-men<\/a>, the Blues were brought back down with a bump against Newcastle United at the weekend<\/a>.<\/p>\n Malick Thiaw scored twice in between goals from Lewis Miley and Nick Woltemade to secure Eddie Howe\u2019s side a 4-1 win. The Blues are back in action tomorrow night against Bournemouth, and Moyes has revealed he will be unable to call upon Seamus Coleman<\/a> (hamstring), Merlin Rohl (hernia), Jarrad Branthwaite<\/a> (hamstring) and Nathan Patterson<\/a> (foot\/hernia) for the game.<\/p>\n He said: “We’re looking okay, but we went into Newcastle carrying a couple of boys with injuries from the game in midweek. They played.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Everton inquest started long before full-time whistle as Newcastle dressing room view emerges<\/a>READ MORE: Everton summer signing could finally get his chance as David Moyes considers change<\/a><\/p>\n “Possibly, on another day, if we’d have had other players available, we might have altered that. But no excuses from that point of view. We had a brilliant win on Monday night [at Manchester United].<\/p>\n “We probably went into Saturday still carrying a bit into the game, as well. We were still carrying a couple of small injuries.”<\/p>\n Asked for an update on his four injured players, Moyes added: “None of them are available for the game.<\/p>\n \u201cWe’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.”<\/p>\n Idrissa Gueye will miss the game at the Vitality Stadium as he serves the second game of his three-match ban after his sending off in the 1-0 victory at Manchester United. And asked if he was surprised by his side’s performance against Newcastle, Moyes said: “It did surprise me because I didn’t expect us to be quite as\u2026 I think for long periods we played really well.<\/p>\n “We played so well with the ball, passed it well, kept the ball and tried to do the right things. But in the elements where we needed to be physical, set pieces and three of the goals came from first- or second-phase set pieces. We lacked physicality in that game, that is for sure.”<\/p>\n While the Everton<\/a> boss also said: “You have to deal with what you get when it comes along; that is the way football is. We had a great result on the Monday night against Man Utd and not so good result on Saturday. But that is football for you.<\/p>\n “The team has done so well. To think how well we have done from near enough this time last year to where we are now, how the players have been performing has been fantastic.<\/p>\n “We certainly carried a few injuries into that game I know that. We played against a really good Newcastle team who have been building over the last four or five years, it was a tough game for us but hopefully we will learn from it.”<\/p>\n Sky Sports discounted Premier League and EFL package<\/p>\n This article contains affiliate links, we will receive a commission on any sales we generate from it.
