Gibson and McCarthy close on Toffees return

Ireland midfield duo Darron Gibson and James McCarthy could make a return to action for Everton against Southampton tomorrow.

Martinez is not prioritising the transfer window as he believes he has enough resources at his disposal, with several injured players on the mend.

The Spaniard admits the coming weeks will have a significant bearing on how their season turns out but he is backing the players he has at his disposal to get them through.
