Ashley Young - Sent off in Merseyside derby Young was sent off in Saturday's 2-0 loss against Liverpool. He finished with two blocked shots and one tackle before departing the contest in the 37th minute.
Impact Everton were already having a hard time dealing with Liverpool's attacking line, and the loss of Young made things even tougher for them. The straight red card means Young will miss the team's next three matches.

Everton's Jack Harrison - 'I need to take responsibility to drive this team up to where it belongs' Jack Harrison's route to the top has been unconventional, but the loanee from Leeds has settled into life at Everton

Seamus Coleman - Back on grass Coleman (knee) returned to the grass and will hope to ramp up training in the next month, according to manager Sean Dyche.
Impact Coleman probably still has another month to go, as he's only just back on grass and will likely be limited to individual work for the next couple weeks. From there, he'll need to get back his fitness in full training and given his time away, that will take another couple weeks. And while that happens, the hope is that his knee feels fine and that there are no setbacks in his recovery.

Andre Gomes - Still not ready to return Gomes (calf) is not ready to return and doesn't have a timeline to do so, according to manager Sean Dyche.
Impact It wasn't much of an update from Dyche, but Gomes still isn't ready to go despite getting the international break to recover. He was apparently "touch and go" just before the break but apparently hasn't made any progress. Either way, he's deep on the depth chart and doesn't have a spot in the squad for now.
OCTOBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Idrissa Gueye - Gets run with Senegal Gueye (heel) played the final 10-plus minutes of Monday's friendly with Senegal.
Impact Gueye was a late scratch just before the break and his appearance for Senegal in a friendly is good news for Everton for the upcoming Merseyside derby. Assuming he's fit and feeling well, he should be in the starting XI Saturday with a question of Amadou Onana or James Garner as his central midfield partner.
OCTOBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Arnaut Danjuma - Falling out of favor Danjuma started none of the final three matches before the international break.
Impact Danjuma's role has continued to dwindle after taking a significant place at the start of the season. That was exemplified during a 3-0 win over Bournemouth where Danjuma was left on the bench for the entirety of the match. Danjuma simply doesn't seem to project in the starting XI barring injuries.
OCTOBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Dele Alli - Suffers injury setback Alli is dealing with a hip injury but his potential return has been delayed after he announced on his personal Instagram account that he suffered a new setback.
Impact Alli has yet to make his debut this season, and it seems he is not going to return to action anytime soon after this latest setback. No timetable has been given for his return, though even when he's fully healthy, Alli is simply not going to be anything more than a reserve option off the bench.

Idrissa Gueye - Dealing with heel problem Gueye -- who was a late substitute versus Bournemouth on Saturday -- ie being hampered by a heel injury, per Patrick Boyland of The Athletic.
Impact Gueye was replaced in the lineup by Amadou Onana, who was originally scratched in favor of Jack Harrison. Even if the veteran Gueye is able to get back to 100 percent during the international break, he is far from a lock for the starting XI now that Harrison, Dwight McNeil and James Garner are all 100 percent.

Ashley Young - Solid overall performance in win Young generated two shots (none on-target) and two crosses (none accurate) in Saturday's 3-0 win over AFC Bournemouth. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 11th minute.
Impact Young put in a solid overall performance on Saturday. He posted decent defensive statistics and demonstrated he can also be a danger in attack, firing two shots. The regular starting 38-year-old veteran has delivered one clean sheet but needs to be careful with his playing style, he has now accrued three yellows.
OCTOBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Dominic Calvert-Lewin - Hits woodwork in win over Cherries Calvert-Lewin fires three shots (none on-target) in Saturday's 3-0 win over AFC Bournemouth.
Impact Calvert-Lewin was a constant danger on Saturday. He statistically placed no shots-on-target but he was unlucky not to score on a number of occasions, once hitting the woodwork. He was subbed after 83. The striker is in good form, he has scored three from his last four matches. With the support he is receiving from his midfielders, James Garner and Jack Harrison in particular, he will inevitably be back on the scoresheet again soon.
OCTOBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Amadou Onana - Shot-on-target in win over Cherries Onana placed three shots (one on-target) in Saturday's 3-0 win over AFC Bournemouth.
Impact Onana played a key role in an effective Everton midfield on Saturday that dismantled Bournemouth. He managed to place a shot-on-target and engaged in four tackles. The regular starting Belgian is yet to score or assist in the EPL this season, but based on this performance it is only a matter of time before he improves these statistics.
OCTOBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
James Garner - Scores opener in rout over Bournemouth Garner placed four shots (two on-target) scoring with one of them. He also executed five crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 3-0 win over AFC Bournemouth.
Impact Garner scored Everton's opening goal on Saturday. It was a coolly taken strike that capitalized on a Bournemouth defensive error. His playmaking work rate was high, feeding opportunities to Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Abdoulaye Doucoure. His command of the midfield was a key contribution to his team's decisive victory. The 22-year-old is in hot form, he has scored twice and delivered an assist in his last four matches.
OCTOBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Abdoulaye Doucoure - Scores in victory over the Cherries Doucoure fired five shots (three on-target), scoring with one of them and placed a cross (not accurate) in Saturday's 3-0 victory over AFC Bournemouth.
Impact Doucoure was a constant danger on Saturday playing in a striking role tucked in behind Dominic Calvert-Lewin. He had strong support from his midfield playmakers and was able to place three shots-on-target and claim the Toffees third goal. He was subbed after 89. The regular starter has now found the net three times.
OCTOBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jack Harrison - A goal and assist in rout over Cherries Harrison fired four shots, scoring a goal from one of them, and delivered an assist in Saturday's 3-0 victory over AFC Bournemouth.
Impact Harrison was outstanding on Saturday, pressing high and putting pressure down the Toffees' attacking right flank. His work was rewarded with a well-taken goal, Everton's second, and providing the assist for their third scored by Abdoulaye Doucoure. The winger has recently returned from injury, this was just his second appearance since joining the club over the summer on loan from Leeds. The goal and assist were his first for Everton.
OCTOBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan Pickford - Clean sheet in victory over Cherries Pickford completed three saves and delivered a clean sheet in Saturday's 3-0 win over AFC Bournemouth.
Impact Pickford was outstanding on Saturday, he saved all four shots he faced on-target and delivering his first clean sheet of the season. To date however the English international is not having a distinguishing season. He has conceded 12 (1.5 per game) and saved 19, which at 2.4 saves-per-game (61%) is currently one of the poorest goalkeeping statistics in the EPL.

Idrissa Gueye - Scratched in warm ups Gueye was a late scratch ahead of Saturday's match against Bournemouth.
Impact Gueye was in the initial starting XI, but was injured in the warmup and forced to miss the match. Amadou Onana replaces Gueye in the starting XI Saturday.

Andre Gomes - Not ready to return Gomes is not in the match day squad to face Bournemouth on Saturday.
Impact Gomes failed a late fitness test and misses out on Saturday's squad as he continues to recover from a calf injury. The midfielder has yet to play this season, but will struggle for much game time even when fully fit in Everton's midfield.
OCTOBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jarrad Branthwaite - Signs extension to 2027 Branthwaite signed a three-year contract extension through June 2027, Everton announced.
Impact Branthwaite signed his long-term future to Everton, extending his contract with the club for three more years. The defender will continue to see major minutes in the backline as he helps keep the Toffees in the Premier League.

Seamus Coleman - Officially ruled out Saturday Coleman (knee) won't be an option versus Bournemouth on Saturday but is progressing in his recovery. Manager Sean Dyche told reporters, "Seamus is still making process, but a bit a...
Impact Coleman could benefit from the international break, though the club hasn't provided a specific recovery timeline. Even once given the all-clear, the veteran right-back will likely have to make some appearances off the bench first before getting a shot at the starting XI over Ashley Young.
OCTOBER 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Andre Gomes - Facing late-fitness test Gomes (calf) will be a last-minute decision against Bournemouth on Saturday after manager Sean Dyche told reporters, "Andre has been in and out with niggly calf injuries, so he's t...
Impact Gomes has yet to get onto the pitch for the club this season after spending the previous campaign on loan with Lille. Even if the veteran midfielder does make the squad Saturday, he will be hard-pressed to break into the starting XI over the likes of Andre Onana, Idrissa Gueye or Abdoulaye Doucoure.
