Everton are training twice on Thursday, sessions once again split so the players avoid the worst of the Washington DC heat.
This morning they opened up their early practice to a selection of US-based Blues supporters and the media as an interested audience watched the players being put through their paces. Tim Howard and Leon Osman were also in attendance and happily engaged with fans during another tough few hours of work for the first team squad.
The ECHO was among those invited to the session, held on a sports campus just outside the US capital. This is a selection of the interesting features we spotted.
