Landon Donovan leans on his Everton FC experience to beat England

UNITED STATES forward Landon Donovan believes his loan spell with Everton last season can help play a part in plotting England's downfall on Saturday.Donovan spent two and a half months at Goodison Park during the close season of his parent club, Los Angeles Galaxy, and quickly became a fans' favourite.But he also feels the experience helped him to find out the qualities of some of the England players he will come face to face with in Rustenburg.Donovan, his country's record scorer with 42 goals, said: 'In my opinion, England are one of the top teams in the world and top teams don't have any weaknesses. 'It would be hard for me to point anywhere and find a weakness in their team.'But the experience at Everton was valuable in a lot of ways, for me personally and also in getting the chance to play against some of the players we will see on Saturday.'It also gave me the ability to understand the way their league is, the way and style most teams play in their league.'Those are all beneficial things to us. Will it have a huge impact on the game, probably not.'But having some comfort in that way will be helpful on Saturday.'
