Galaxy’s Donovan Gets Assist in Everton Win Over Chelsea

Landon Donovan’s assist came from what The (London) Times called a “beautifully flighted corner.”

Still, Everton beat table-topping Chelsea 2-1. And how about that performance by former England captain John Terry?

And here’s a good point I just retweeted on Twitter: “Everton earned 22 points in 19 matches before Landon Donovan arrived. Since? 13 points in 6.”

Everton are now ninth in the EPL (and climbing).

What odds on Donovan returning to the Galaxy now?
