Squad sheets: Everton v Wolverhampton Wanderers

Three points on the board, a relatively substantial spend this summer, and now Mick McCarthy is indulging in mind games ahead of the visit to Goodison Park. 'They'll be looking forward to us coming,' he claimed yesterday, knowing full well trepidation surrounds Everton ahead of their first home game. Defeat at Blackburn stunned the optimists on the opening day and, with Aston Villa and Manchester United to follow in the league, David Moyes' team could be playing catch-up yet again unless they find a way to break a Wolves team that held them to a draw twice last season.
