Nathan Patterson 'keep fighting' Everton rally cry as ex-Rangers kid 'gutted' for Seamus Coleman

Nathan Patterson has told Everton they need to 'keep fighting' as part of a rally cry in their bid to stay in the English Premier League.

The former Rangers youngster was called upon last night to replace Seamus Coleman - who looked to have suffered a serious injury - as the Toffees picked up a share of the spoils against fellow relegation battlers Leicester City. Sean Dyche handed the Scotland international praise following his performance labelling him as 'excellent' and he will now be hoping he has done enough to play his part in trying to keep his club side in England's top flight.

Everton have just four fixtures to play this season and currently occupy 19th spot in the division. They are one point away from safety in a battle that looks set to go to the wire. They have difficult tests against Brighton and Manchester City in the next two outings before two huge clashes with Wolves and Bournemouth.
