Tim Cahill Profile

When Everton boss David Moyes moved to add Cahill to his squad in the summer of 2004, there was hardly a media scrum to cover the story among British sports writers.

Yet Cahill emerged as the hero of the Toffees most successful campaign for many a year, with the goals of their Aussie midfielder proving to be decisive throughout. Always a threat breaking forward, he is deceptively dangerous in the air and could just be a wild card to shine for Australia in Germany.

The Socceroos will need one of their midfielders to step forward and shine this summer and this ex-Millwall magician may be the man to do just that - if he can prove his fitness after suffering a knee injury towards the end of the Premiership season.
