Baines eyes England recall

Leighton Baines has not given up on his England dream.After featuring in the friendlies against Egypt and Mexico, the Everton full-back was a surprise omission from Fabio Capello's World Cup squad, losing out to Stephen Warnock. Now Arsenal youngster Kieran Gibbs has leapfrogged above both men in the battle to be understudy to Ashley Cole.It is hard to see that situation changing ahead of next month's Euro 2012 qualifier with Montenegro, even though Baines was one of the major influences behind Everton's remarkable comeback against Manchester United on Saturday.But the 25-year-old is not allowing himself to get disheartened - and does not believe his international days are over."You never know where you are with England," Baines told the Liverpool Echo.

"Before I got my first call-up I didn't know if I was close or a million miles away."The past has proved if your form is good every week then you will get looked at. Okay, it didn't work out quite as well as it could have done but I am only 25 and there is still time."

Everton FC chairman Bill Kenwright sick of prospective investors who 'go missing'

BILL Kenwright's search for a billionaire to takeover Everton is being hampered by time-wasting charlatans, the chairman has revealed. The theatre impresario said he has been misled four times in the last 10 months by potential owners who led the club to embark on costly negotiations before disappearing. Kenwright, speaking at the unveiling of a new Everton timeline at Goodison, said he was astonished at the repeated cons. He said: 'There are many people out there who purport to have the millions, even the billions, who are ready to sign the cheque. But the minute you say OK show us the funds they go missing and you don't here from them again. 'You can't put a time frame on it. I've been saying this for four or five years. I've got what I thought was close four times in the last 10 months, but it was not even close enough. Not even near.

There are people out there who would astonish you. 'They come to you and promise it's going to be done, this is the one. They ask for it to happen quickly so they can get the funds in quickly, and David can have some funds. 'But then the minute you ask to see the money you never see them again. To get to that stage each time is a lot of heart ache, hard work, and legal fees. It goes on and on. It's quite extraordinary. Now you can buy Everton Tickets for Premier League 2010-2011.

Arteta pens five-year Everton deal

Everton midfielder Mikel Arteta has agreed a new five-year contract at Goodison Park, the club have announced.

The news will end speculation over the 28-year-old's future after a summer in which he has been linked with Arsenal and clubs in his native Spain.

Arteta told the club's official website: "What this summer has made me realise is how important I am to the club and how important the club is to me. The chairman and the manager wanted me to stay 120% and that makes me feel proud."

He added: "We are all seeing the club and the future in the same way and that is special - something that you don't always find.

"I believe in this squad. We have got a very strong squad now and it is getting difficult to pick an 11 because of the players we have.

"Something is happening here and I want to be a part of it."

Arteta follows Tim Cahill, Leighton Baines, Jack Rodwell and Seamus Coleman in signing a new long-term deal this summer.

Toffees ban Vuvuzela

Mark Schwarzer and Tim Cahill have been named in Australia's squad for a friendly just three days before the Premier League kick-off. The Socceroos have included 13 players from their World Cup squad in the 20-man group for next Wednesday's friendly against Slovenia in Ljubljana. Galatasaray defender Lucas Neill will captain the side, with Fulham's Schwarzer in goal and Everton midfielder Cahill also involved just ahead of the new season. Emerging Socceroos and former Adelaide team-mates Bruce Djite and Nathan Burns were also named in Han Berger's party for the Australians' first game since they went out in the group stages in South Africa, but there are no places for Harry Kewell, Vince Grella, Mark Bresciano, Brett Emerton or Josh Kennedy.

National technical director Berger said Football Federation Australia (FFA) had discussed the Slovenia match with the likes of Kewell and Emerton and it was decided their interests would be better served staying with their clubs, but they will be available for the friendlies against Switzerland and Poland in September. "A number of players are not currently available, we discussed this fixture with a number of players, and it was clear that it was important for them to consolidate their positions with their clubs, they missed part of the preparation because of the World Cup," said the Dutchman, who will stand in as coach for this match before the expected announcement of the permanent replacement for Pim Verbeek later this month. "It is also in our interest that these players will be playing on a regular basis for their clubs and they are available for the matches in September and after that." Scott Chipperfield and Craig Moore have both retired from international football since the World Cup, while A-League players Jason Culina and Michael Beauchamp have also been left out with the local competition set to begin this week.

There is no recall for Middlesbrough striker Scott McDonald, who surprisingly missed out on a trip to South Africa after being cut from the squad at the penultimate stage by Verbeek. Australia squad to take on Slovenia: Nathan Burns, Tim Cahill, David Carney, Bruce Djite, Adam Federici, Richard Garcia, James Holland, Brett Holman, Mile Jedinak, Shane Lowry, Mark Milligan, Jon McKain, Lucas Neill, Jade North, Thomas Oar, Nikita Rukavytsya, Mark Schwarzer, Carl Valeri, Dario Vidosic, Luke Wilkshire.

Toffees ban Vuvuzela

Everton have joined the growing list of Barclays Premier League clubs to have banned the vuvuzela from their stadium.Tottenham, Arsenal, Sunderland, Liverpool, Birmingham and West Ham have also forbidden the World Cup's plastic trumpet for various reasons.Fears their noise could drown out safety announcements, that they could be used as missiles or their simple annoyance factor are among the objections.Everton's head of security and stadium safety officer Ray Foy said: "It isn't a case of us being killjoys, it is simply a measure which is designed to safeguard our reputation with the game's governing bodies."We have, in the past, had problems with people throwing objects onto the pitch and the Football Association has made it perfectly clear that we do face the possibility of sanctions should there be any repeat offence."I would also have to say that in the wake of the World Cup in South Africa we have received many emails from our supporters asking that we ban vuvuzelas on the grounds that they are simply irritating - but none urging us to permit their use at first-team fixtures."

No Everton return for Donovan

Major League Soccer commissioner Don Garber hopes to keep Landon Donovan in his homeland for the rest of his career, dashing Everton's hopes of signing their former loanee. The 28-year-old forward impressed while on loan with the Toffees last season, but a permanent deal for the LA Galaxy ace looks increasingly unlikely. Garber commented: "He's become a real football hero.

"MLS needs football heroes and we have a great American football hero playing for us in LA, holding the torch for the sport in our country and that's very important. "I don't believe that it's something we can do without. "Landon proved in England last year on loan and he proved in South Africa that he's a world-class player and he's also proved that he loves our league and really has accepted the mantle of really being one of the leaders of the sport.

"It is my hope and my expectation that we will have him for the rest of his career, because I think the contributions that he makes are invaluable to our future success."
