Everton skipper Neville excited about Jo, Saha combo

Everton captain Phil Neville is excited about their attacking partnership of Jo and Louis Saha.

"Jo and Louis could be two very exciting players for us this season," Neville told the Daily Post.

"It's just a shame that they weren't all fit at the end of last year; if Louis had been really on fire and training all the time, if James Vaughan had not missed so many matches and so much training and if we'd had Yak and Jo at Wembley, I'm sure we'd have won.

"I beat myself up over it all summer; I'm not dreaming, I'm just looking at the facts. Yes, we were beaten by a better side on the day but they had everything go right for them in the run-up and fully fit squad. I just wish we would have had that too."
