Steven Naismith EvertonSteven Naismith says he is ready and willing to start for Everton against Manchester United.

The former Rangers man was suffering an injury which many felt would rule him out of the opening stages of the Premier League campaign, but he has shown that he is more than ready.

“I am looking forward to it,” he said. “I have a good pre-season and all that hard work is going to be put into practise.

“Hopefully with what I have done in pre-season and what I do in training in the next few days, I can show the manager that I am capable of starting.”
