Moyes hopes to take Everton ‘back to where it should be’
Everton manager David Moyes, August 15, 2009

The 61-year-old Scot returned last week following Sean Dyche’s sacking after one win in 11 Premier League matches left the Toffees in relegation trouble.

But after leaving behind what he felt was a “brilliant” team in 2013 when he went to Manchester United, Moyes has inherited an altogether different situation.
