Radzinski set for Everton comeback

Tomasz Radzinski should be available to make his Everton comeback against Charlton in the Carling Cup after returning to training following a calf injury.

But boss David Moyes has a catalogue of problems, despite the fact that Li Tie, Alan Stubbs, Duncan Ferguson and James McFadden all overcame injuries to be in the squad at Aston Villa on Saturday.

Kevin Kilbane is cup tied while Steve Watson is now out for six weeks after a double hernia operation.

Nick Chadwick has a hamstring problem while Leon Osman (ankle), Lee Carsley (knee), Alessandro Pistone (hernia operation) and Scot Gemmill (thigh) are all sidelined.

Alex Nyarko could also make a first team comeback after his long spell as an outcast following loan spells at Monaco and Paris SG.

Provisional squad: Martyn, Hibbert, Weir, Yobo, Stubbs, Naysmith, Unsworth, Gravesen, Li Tie, Linderoth, McFadden, Campbell, Ferguson, Radzinski, Rooney, Wright, Jeffers, Clarke, Nyarko.
