Everton midfielder Darron Gibson has been ruled out for a month after suffering a thigh strain. Gibson missed Everton\'s 2-1 defeat against Chelsea on Sunday as a result of the problem and Toffees manager David Moyes confirmed on Monday that the Republic of Ireland international won\'t be back in action until February. The 25-year-old spent more than two months on the sidelines earlier in the season with a similar problem and missed 10 Premier League games. \"I think he\'s going to be out for about four weeks,\" Moyes said. Gibson\'s absence is a significant blow to Everton, who are challenging for a top four finish, as Moyes is already without Kevin Mirallas, Tony Hibbert and Seamus Coleman due to injuries. From : AFP
