Everton are hosts to Boro tonight in the Carling Cup with 3 key players out injured. Cahill, Ferguson and Valente are injured due to knocks picked up from Sunday's game against Chelsea. The good news is that Per Kroldrup and Van Der Meyde will make vital starts for the club.

VDM states: "When I am playing I am always looking for the goal. I am always looking to go forward and towards the goal, not back. That is how I am used to playing and so I hope I can score some goals and give some assists to the strikers.

"I hope I can excite the fans. I think I can do that and it would be nice to do that on Wednesday.

"I want to play good games for Everton and leave this all behind (the injury) and start now with the team."

Everton From:
Martyn, Wright, Turner, Neville, Hughes, Yobo, Kroldrup, Weir, Ferrari, Hibbert, Li Tie, Van Der Meyde, Davies, Osman, Arteta, Kilbane, Beattie, Bent, McFadden
