Pain in the neck for Hibbert

13 May 2009 08:48
Everton have revealed they are concerned after Tony Hibbert recently suffered a neck injury. The right-back appeared to be over his latest fitness setback after overcoming a thigh problem. However, it now appears that Hibbert is a doubt for the Toffees' FA Cup final versus Chelsea on 30th May. "Tony just appeared one day with a really sore neck," said physio Mick Rathbone in the Daily Express. "That was 11 days ago. He's not training. The thing about necks is they do resolve spontaneously, so we're kind of hoping he's going to come in every day lots better."
