Everton manager David Moyes will celebrate a major career milestone when he takes charge of his 700th Premier League game on Saturday, describing the achievement as incredible.

Moyes said winger Dwight McNeil will "probably" require knee surgery: "He's tried but it looks like we're going to have to get him back to the specialist to see. It's a real blow because we need him back for things like set-pieces, deliveries and his general play. Everybody has told me he's performed really well for Everton."
