Gibson set for Everton return

Everton manager Roberto Martinez is ready to put faith in his squad as he plans to rotate players for tonight’s Capital One Cup tie at Fulham (kick-off 8pm).

However, the Spaniard will not be fielding a second-string side as Craven Cottage as it is likely Irish midfielder Darron Gibson will make his long-awaited return from injury.

Martinez also insists loan-signing Romelu Lukaku is fully fit after a head injury and is raring to go again after scoring in the 3-2 win at West Ham.
