pterodactyls asked: American Landon Donovan scored his first Premier League goal yesterday. I don't expect that it was a big deal, he's just some guy, but it's still pretty neat. Is Everton even a good team?
I saw the goal this morning, and it was a hell of a deflection. They all count though! Donovan’s debut for Everton came against Arsenal, actually, and he played pretty well. Should be a useful player to have in the squad for the second-half of the season.
Everton are a pretty good team, middling to fair. A couple of years ago, they were very good, and pushing for a top-four finish, but the wheels have come off a little since then. They had a bad start this season, but are steadily recovering.
They’ve got some good players in their squad (Cahill and Fellaini spring to mind), and an excellent manager, so they’re underperforming, really.
