The second honeymoon continues for David Moyes. Taking charge of his 700th Premier League game and up against the division’s youngest manager who is 30 years his junior, a controversial penalty from Iliman Ndiaye made it two successive victories since the 61-year-old’s return to Everton and proved there is no substitute for experience.
This was the kind of backs-to-the-wall victory Moyes has made his speciality since taking charge of his first match back in March 2002 when he was the new manager on the block.
