Everton are rallying around Darron Gibson after his withdrawal from the Republic of Ireland squad.

Gibson chose to step down as he's still to recover from the Euros flop.

Everton manager David Moyes says Gibson will play for his country again.

He said: "You would have thought Darron would have been a key player for Euro 2012, too, but didn't play, so he is disappointed.

"But he'll play for Ireland again, no doubt about that. I have spoken to him about it and I know he wants to play."
