Arteta doubt for Everton

29 October 2010 15:00
Everton manager David Moyes will make a late decision on Mikel Arteta's availability for the Barclays Premier League match with Stoke at Goodison Park. Midfielder Arteta, who missed last week's 1-1 draw at Tottenham with a slight hamstring strain, will undergo a fitness test. Moyes concedes the game comes "too soon" for Jack Rodwell, who is closing in on a return after two months out with an ankle injury, meaning he remains on the sidelines alongside Leon Osman (ankle), Marouane Fellaini (hamstring), Ross Barkley (broken leg) and Victor Anichebe (knee).
