I keep reading online that Tarks has suffered a back injury and is out for a few weeks.

Anyone know if there is anything in this?

Does anyone gave extra info on his injury?



As embarrassing as a 2-1 defeat to a fourth-tier team looks on paper for any Premier League club, it has to be noted that Everton were without a host of key players.

Despite being able to field a starting XI featuring the likes of Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Dwight McNeil, Jack Harrison and Seamus Coleman, Dyche introduced a host of youngsters from the bench, disrupting the flow of the game in the second half.

Among the missing players were Jarrad Branthwaite, James Tarkowski, Idrissa Gana Gueye, Vitaly Mykolenko and Nathan Patterson, while new signings Jesper Lindstrom and Iliman Ndiaye were also unavailable.

Dyche provides update on Branthwaite, Tarkowski and Co
In a lengthy post-match interview with evertontv, Dyche addressed the fitness of Everton’s absentees.

“We’re a way short of our main group, which we know, due to injuries and we still need support through the markets, which we’re looking to do,” said Dyche.

“Tarky’s coming through things at the moment, so that’s good. Gana, we had to be careful with, but he’s coming through things and Myko’s the same. Dele’s getting closer but has still a bit to go with his fitness.

“Ili is another knock, nothing too serious, so he should be back around it next week.

“Jarrad’s making steps forwards. He’s not ready yet. He won’t be back next week but should be after that.

“The main message is they are not serious injuries but at this stage of pre-season when they’ve done a lot of work we have to be careful, hence why we took the main group of players off here as they are getting fitter and stronger after a big week, which they have had.

“Jesper’s literally just got in the door. He is up and running, though, and he’s had a good spell of pre-season work. He feels pretty good so I think he’ll be up and running pretty quickly.”
 

Sounds like everyone is injured
I just hope they don’t select a team with loads of reserve team players or use a batch of them when we play Roma, I’ve paid £15 bleedin’ pounds to watch first team players in a friendly game mostly to have a gander at the new players we’ve bought and for no other reason——I’ve seen all the Academy players and with all due respect I wouldn’t pay £15 to watch reserve team lads.
 
Bloody tell Tarkowski might aswell retire given the number of injury rumours on here 😂.
So he’s broke his foot, injured his back, torn his hammy. Anything else I missed?

Only reputable(sort of) is the Echo guy saying he left Ireland early because of a glute injury.

My sources tell me he is also suffering with a rather nasty case of achy ball.
