MOYES HIT BY OLLIE GOOD SHOW

Toffees boss upstaged by Watkins on return

- Richard Lewis

DAVID MOYES knew a honeymoon period for his return to Everton would be a big ask, as he renewed vows with the club he served so well for 11 years.

The Scot has taken on a team with one league win in 11 before last night and faced an Aston Villa side chasing a Champions League spot again.

So an opening defeat may be a disappointment but not a surprise.

There were some positive signs. It's just the same problems persist. A lack of attacking threat, a ruthless finisher who can fire this side out of trouble.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin's late miss, when the Toffees threatened an equaliser, was further proof of that.
