There are many reasons last season

There are many reasons last season was so remarkable for Everton Football Club.One which may wellgo on to benefit the Blues for years to come was the emergence of teenage midfielder Jack Rodwell. Though the England Under-21 international made his full Everton debut against AZ Alkmaar back in December 2007 - becoming the youngest player to Fifa 16 PS4 Coins  represent the Club in Europe in the process - it was his performances during the 2008/09 campaign which marked him out as a potential star of the future.

It was a really good test.The goal he scored was something else. It was only a mis-control in midfield then all of a sudden he was through and had scored.It was so weird, something that you dont expect to happen. You just have to learn from things like that and it was a good test.The next game I play, Ive got to show that I have picked up on it. Its all good for my development and just being with the team in this type of surrounding, playing against quality opposition, can only help.Subscribers will be able to watch Everton in action against the MLS All-Stars on evertonTV.
