A decade on from exiting Goodison Park, long-serving Everton manager David Moyes finally finds himself on the cusp of where many felt he could and perhaps should have taken the Blues.
The month before he took Everton to their first and to date, only cup final since their last success in 1995, the Scot confidently proclaimed: “Everton will win a trophy soon, that is for sure.” However, despite his lengthy and relatively-speaking, successful tenure on Merseyside, he ultimately failed to deliver in the silverware stakes.
Surely nobody would deny that Moyes got far more right than he got wrong during his Goodison Park tenure that lasted for over 11 years. You couldn’t remain in such a position for that length of time if you hadn’t.
