Morgan Feeney inspired by Everton hero Tomasz Radzinski

Everton defender Morgan Feeney has revealed how Tomasz Radzinski inspired him to take up the game.

Feeney made his first team debut earlier this season in the Europa League.

And he told evertontv: "Going to Goodison is all I knew growing up - it was drilled into me from my family and ever since the first game that I came to I just wanted to keep coming back.

"I always remember the first game I went to - Fulham in 2002. The ball was running out of play and Tomasz Radzinski went to keep it in play and did a bit of a Cruyff turn. He put his hand in the air and I thought he was putting a thumbs up to me! 40,000 people and I thought he was waving at me.

"That's what stuck in my memory most and made me love the Blues."
