Jordan Pickford - Concedes twice in draw Pickford registered four saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Tottenham Hotspur.

Impact Pickford conceded two goals Saturday, both scored by his former teammate Richarlison in the first half. He has now conceded multiple goals in four of his past six matches, including twice against Spurs. Over that same stretch he has made four saves in every match after doing it just three times in his first 17 starts. He faces a very difficult match next Saturday at Manchester City, a side which has scored 51 goals in 21 league matches this season.

Arnaut Danjuma - Already doubtful for City match Danjuma (leg) has already been ruled as doubtful for their match against Manchester City next Saturday, with manager Sean Dyche stating in his post-match press conference, "Danjuma...

Impact Danjuma looks to be in line for his second match in a row on the sidelines, as after going down with a leg issue against Fulham on Thursday, he missed Saturday's match against Tottenham and is now set to miss their match against City as well. This is a brutal blow for the player and club, as the player had just started in two straight contests before the injury, and the club has just started to find some form after three losses in a row. More on the player's status should be released throughout the week, but as of now, expect the attacker to be sidelined once again.

Amadou Onana - Will miss Tottenham tilt Onana (knee) is unavailable for Saturday's match versus Tottenham.

Impact Onana was questionable coming into the fixture and won't be risked. Idrissa Gueye, James Garner, and Jack Harrison are starting in the midfield.

Arnaut Danjuma - Ruled out for Tottenham game Danjuma (leg) isn't an option for Sunday's match versus Tottenham.

Impact Danjuma picked up an injury last week and will miss at least one game because of it. He'll attempt to recover for next week's match versus Manchester City. Dwight McNeil and Ashley Young are starting wide in this one.

FEBRUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Seamus Coleman - Available versus Tottenham Coleman (hamstring) is a bench option to face Tottenham on Saturday.

Impact Coleman will return after missing one game but won't get the start. He has logged four inaccurate crosses, five tackles, two interceptions, and nine clearances in three appearances. Ben Godfrey is playing at right-back.

FEBRUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

James Tarkowski - Makes nine clearances in draw Tarkowski had one shot on goal, created two chances and made nine clearances, one interception and two blocks during Tuesday's scoreless draw against Fulham.

Impact Tarkowski was once again a defensive star here, always getting in position in advance to prevail over opposing forwards. The nine clearances matched his season high from two months ago and you can always count on him to deliver on this category, where he's top five among all EPL players this season. With 27 clearances over his last four starts, the center-back will try to keep it up during Saturday's clash against Tottenham.

Ben Godfrey - Thrives in second season start Godfrey had four shots (one on target), created one chance and made four tackles (two won) and seven clearances, helped his side to keep a clean sheet and was show a yellow card du...

Impact Godfrey is usually stuck on the bench, but this time received a chance to start and made most of it, being a much needed help against a talented frontline, while also appearing as a threat on attacking set pieces. With neither Nathan Patterson nor Seamus Coleman totally convincing on the fight for a starting spot at right-back, Godfrey can lean on this performances to rack up more starts moving forward.

FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Dominic Calvert-Lewin - Takes five shots on Tuesday Calvert-Lewin had five off-target shots and created two chances during Tuesday's scoreless draw against Fulham.

Impact Calvert-Lewin couldn't put to an end his scoreless streak that has been extended to 11 games, but at least this time he looked like a real threat up front, pacing his team in shots attempted and creating a pair of chances for teammates. This has been another disappointing campaign for the forward, who has been slowed down by injuries over the last three years,, but games like this just show how he can still deliver on the biggest stages.

Jordan Pickford - Keeps another clean sheet Pickford made five saves and kept a clean sheet during Tuesday's scoreless draw against Fulham.

Impact Pickford was one of the biggest reasons why the Toffees escaped with at least one point, displaying his well-known reflexes and good positioning to stop everything that went onto his way. This was the eight game with four of more saves over 22 league starts for the goalkeeper, who shut the opposition down in six of his last nine contests.

Abdoulaye Doucoure - Limited to individual work Doucoure (hamstring) has yet to resume first-team training and has been limited to individual work, manager Sean Dyche informed reporters Thursday.

Impact Doucoure previously missed three matches due to another hamstring issue and now finds himself facing another extended stint on the shelf. The Toffees have struggled to earn points without the midfielder in the squad. As such, Doucoure is a lock to break into the starting XI once given the all-clear, though that likely won't happen soon at this point.

Amadou Onana - Doubtful against Spurs Onana is "touch and go" versus Tottenham on Saturday due to his knee injury, according to manager Sean Dyche.

Impact Onana had started five straight matches, in which he generated one goal on four shots (one on target), one cross (accurate) and 15 tackles (nine won), prior to suffering his knee injury. If deemed fit, the Belgian midfielder is a near-lock for the starting XI, even with the return of Idrissa Gueye from international duty.

FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Seamus Coleman - Facing late fitness test Coleman (hamstring) will be re-evaluated prior to kick off of Saturday's matchup with Tottenham.

Impact Coleman has been hampered by injuries this season, making just three appearances (two starts) for the club in which he registered nine clearances, five tackles (four won) and four crosses (zero accurate). At this point, even if Coleman is cleared to play Saturday, he may have to settle for a spot on the bench given his fitness concerns.

Arnaut Danjuma - In doubt Saturday Danjuma (leg) is doubtful against Tottenham on Saturday.

Impact Danjuma was making his second straight start in Premier League action when he was forced off late due to his leg problem. With the winger on the shelf, Jack Harrison could move back out wide, especially with the return of Idrissa Gueye from AFCON. For his part, Danjuma was linked to a move away from Everton but will be sticking it out after a loan never materialized.

FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Idrissa Gueye - Back with Toffees Gueye has returned from AFCON and will be available against Spurs on Saturday.

Impact Gueye's return will bolster a midfield that has been depleted by injuries with the absences of Abdoulaye Doucoure (hamstring), Amadou Onana (undisclosed) and Andre Gomes (undisclosed). Prior to his international departure, Gueye has been dealing with a calf problem, which likely factored into him playing just 68 minutes in three bench appearances for Senegal. Given the midfield concerns, Gueye almost certainly will be in line for a spot in the starting XI on Saturday.

Arnaut Danjuma - Limps off Tuesday Danjuma was forced off during the second half of Tuesday's clash with Fulham, due to an apparent injury.

Impact Danjuma seemingly picked up an injury during second half stoppage time in Tuesday's match. The winger may have been playing the injury up a bit to waste time but still seemed to be in significant discomfort. He will face a quick race to get fit before a Saturday clash with Tottenham.

JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE

Amadou Onana - Out Tuesday Onana (undisclosed) is not in the squad for Tuesday's clash with Fulham.

Impact Onana played the full 90 during Everton's 2-1 loss to Luton Town in the FA Cup, but evidently he picked up some sort of issue. The midfielder is tough to replace especially with other injuries to the squad. With Onana out, James Garner becomes the only real central midfielder in the starting XI. Onana's first chance to return is a Saturday match against Tottenham.

JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE

Seamus Coleman - Unlikely against Fulham Coleman (hamstring) is unlikely to be ready for Tuesday's trip to Fulham, according to manager Sean Dyche.

Impact Coleman is unlikely to be rushed back into action Tuesday with Nathan Patterson healthy and available. Given the injury problems for Coleman this past year and his age, every return from injury will take a little longer than expected, which means at least another match on the sidelines for a hamstring injury.

Ashley Young - On bench in FA Cup Young (undisclosed) was on the bench during Saturday's 2-1 FA Cup loss to Luton Town.

Impact Young didn't come off the bench, but was in the squad for the first time since December after dealing with an undisclosed injury. The fullback should be in the squad to face Fulham on Tuesday.

Dele Alli - Undergoes groin surgery Alli underwent groin surgery recently and will remain out going forward, according to manager Sean Dyche. "There was a bit of a debate as to whether to [operate] or not, which is w...

Impact It'll be a lost season for Alli unless he can recover quickly following surgery. It's been a bit of a whirlwind for him the last couple years and once he's on the other side of this injury, he'll hope to find a role somewhere, as his original Everton contract expires in the summer.

JANUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Seamus Coleman - Still out for FA Cup Coleman (hamstring) is unlikely for Saturday's FA Cup match, according to manager Sean Dyche.

Impact It sounds like a little more than hamstring tightness for Coleman, who was dealing with the issue more than a week ago and doesn't appear to be back in training yet. Given his lack of minutes this season due to his knee injury, it's hard to see him being pushed right back into the starting XI when he returns with Nathan Patterson set for at least another start or two at right-back.

JANUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Andre Gomes - Picks up new injury Gomes suffered a new injury and Sean Dyche is waiting on news to see how long he will be out.

Impact Gomes has played a bunch in the last month due to other injuries in the squad and those minutes likely led to a new injury. If he has to miss extended time, that puts Dyche in a bit of a bind in the midfield and could mean a change in formation due to a lack of options. With Abdoulaye Doucoure out and Idrissa Gueye at AFCON, the midfield could be thin if Gomes has to miss more than one game.
