da betcris： Everton midfielder Leon Osman has been ruled out for six weeks with an ankle injury.
da 888casino： Osman was replaced at half-time during last weekend’s 2-0 Merseyside derby victory over Liverpool and manager David Moyes has reveaeled the extent of the problem.
The 29-year-old’s absence has left Moyes with a midfield selection headache ahead of Saturday lunchtime’s Premier League trip to Tottenham.
Mikel Arteta is a doubt with a hamstring problem, while Marouane Fellaini (ankle), Steven Pienaar (groin) and Jack Rodwell (ankle) are definitely ruled out.
Strike pair Louis Saha (calf) and Victor Anichebe (knee) remain absent with long-term injuries.
“There is no getting away from it we have another bad set of injuries like we had last year,” said Moyes.
“Hopefully they will not be as bad as that in terms of the length of time the players will be missing for.
“Leon Osman has a bad ankle injury which will keep him out for four to six weeks which is a real blow.
“We’ll also have to have a close look at Arteta’s fitness as well.
“There are others we will have to assess today, we are getting some players back but maybe some not quick enough.”
