One to watch: Wayne Rooney:
Rooney's international career is flourishing,
even though he only has 15 career
goals for Everton to his name. It's
easy to forget he's still only a teenager,
some six months younger than City
starlet Ian Henderson. The boy clearly
has the world at his feet.

Last meeting: Everton 3, Norwich
City 1 (January 3, 2004): Norwich
City walked out of Goodison Park,
and out of the FA Cup, with their
heads held high following a 3-1 defeat
by their Premiership hosts. Though
Everton and their England sensation
Wayne Rooney dominated the first half,
once Thomas Gravesen failed to reappear
after the break so the tables turned
and in the end it needed a second,
controversial penalty from Duncan
Ferguson to seal Norwich's fate.
Chances: After finishing seventh
in 2003, last season was a disaster
for
Everton as Moyes' side battled against
relegation. Much more is expected
this term - or star striker Rooney
could soon be considering his options.
