It turns out David Moyes replacing Sean Dyche was nothing like copy and paste. One British manager is not the same as the next. Each of the players decisive in victory at Crystal Palace exemplified the influence and nous Moyes has returned to Merseyside.
Beto, a striker untrusted by Dyche, scored a fine goal. The late winner came from an astute wild-card signing in Carlos Alcaraz, the supplier of Beto’s earlier goal smashing in the rebound of a shot from Ashley Young, a player Moyes worked with back in their Manchester United days.
