Everton loan item Landon Donovan hopped on for the last 20 minutes against Hull on Sunday, and it would be all he'd need to notch a goal and an assist to help the Toffees cap a 5-1 win.In minute 82, Donovan found the perfect chance fall to him in the right channel and he buried it inside the far post. Scant moments later, the U.S. star was in nearly the same position, but opted to cutback for a Jack Rodwell strike.
Video to come...
UPDATE THAT I DON'T WANT TO OBSCURE UNDER THE CLIP UPDATE: Right on cue, Donovan admits there is a chance he could stay and hints at ongoing and/or forthcoming talks over the matter.
UPDATE: All the goals here, I'll switch it to MOTD's reel in the morning.

Donovan looked like a man amongst boys out there today. Great 20 minutes from him.
And now on to MLS....

I'll believe it when I see it.
I'm with you Greg. Any birdies tipping their hand on Donovan yet? Is that Chelsea report rubbish? I'd hate to see him end up there or Liverpool.
The Everton fans genuinely seem to want Donovan to stay. Did Everton spend all of their Lescott cash? They brought in Heitinga, Bilyaletdinov and Distin. Did that max out their spending power? Donovan will cost more if he has a big World Cup.
Is it logistically possible for Everton to send a couple of its youngsters - have no idea who specifically - to the Galaxy on loan in exchange for keeping LD till season end?

No, it's not, because MLS only likes to sign people on loan when there is a clause that will allow the team to buy the player at the end of the loan deal.
