Donovan ready to help Everton

Everton loan signing Landon Donovan believes he is a better player now than he was in his first spell with the Toffees.

The United States international has returned for a second two-month spell, having done the same in the early part of 2010.

He played 13 matches and scored twice but the American, who turns 30 in March, is confident he comes back a better player, and said: "I am really excited to get back here and play. Since being here first time I've played in a World Cup and had another couple of years' experience so I feel more prepared this time."
