Many United fans will be delighted to learn that Louis "Sicknote" Saha is on his way to join Everton, subject to the not so small matter of first passing a medical.

Given the French striker has somehow managed to sustain injuries in several pre-match warm-ups it cannot be ruled that he will manage to get himself injured before he signs on the dotted line. Potential hazards include the pile of Everton's carpets being too deep, which could in turn lead to a hamstring injury and do not rule out the chances of Louis pulling a muscle in the changing room.

The fact that the Reds have seen fit to allow this deal to go ahead will add further weight to the claims that it's only a matter of time before long-term target Dimitar Berbatov becomes a United player.

Whatever happens at Everton, Saha's name will eventually be added to the long list of former strikers who failed to live up to expectations.
