The fact that Arteta is injured again doesn't suprise me. He was scythed down at least 5 times on Wed.

Did the tackles look worse in person? Cause on TV they didn't look like much of anything except honest tackles.

Well its going to be 100 degrees with about 146% humidity tomorrow. Not expecting much of a match and we will probably see alot of reserves on both sides.

not sure why EFC choose to play a series of games in such dread conditions

The weather is apparently the hottest it's been in the US for decades. I don't think it's entirely fair to blame Everton for not knowing that when the tour was arranged some months ago.

If these are normal conditions, it would seem a bit bizarre for much of the US media to be talking about a heatwave then?

it may be hotter than usual- but usual in them parts is 100 degrees+ and stifling humidity- which is bad enough. but as you say it is hotter than normal so gawd `elp `em. EFC will have known about the normal temperatures so go figure
