The Latest: Myers reacts to Patterson injury

Following up on his previous update, Myers gave his reaction to the news, claiming: 'When it rains, it pours'.

Of course, the Merseyside club are in a difficult place at the moment, with their game against the Clarets now looking like a must-win given their precarious position in the table.

The Verdict: Blow for Everton

To lose Patterson for the rest of the campaign is certainly a blow to Everton's chances of staying up.

Although the youngster has only been used glowing reviews from his time at Glasgow Rangers, and he is a full Scotland international at just 20 years of age.

Nonetheless, many Toffees fans will be excited to see what he can do, but they will now have to wait until next term in what is a bitter setback for both the player and the club.
