'Sticking Plaster' David Moyes Backs Everton To Beat Premier League Drop
David Moyes insisted on Monday he had jumped at the chance to manage Everton for a second spell and was confident of extending the club's 71-year stay in English football's top-flight. The Scot, 61, enjoyed great success during his first 11-year stint at Goodison Park from 2002 to 2013, a period including a fourth place Premier League finish in 2005 and a FA Cup final appearance in 2009. Everton have fallen on harder times since he departed for a short-lived reign as Alex Ferguson's successor at Manchester United.
