β€œWell, the club pays his wage, and I don't treat him any differently than I would treat any other player.”

β€œI just told him to get on with it and he has done so. He's trained really well this week and deserved the opportunity to start the team.”

πŸ—£οΈ David Moyes on that save: "The biggest credit I could give the save was that Tonali's volley was textbook. He couldn't have hit it any better. It took a wonder save to keep it out." πŸ”΅

Sky Sports Premier League - PL Stories : Iliman Ndiaye . This was on tonight and is only 1/2 hour in length and was a good story of his rise from childhood to winning the Afcon Trophy. Should be on again soon if you haven’t seen it yet. πŸ’™βš½οΈ

Talking about the 1968 FA Cup Final, here is the photo of the Everton Cup Final Squad, taken in the days before the game at Wembley, and including prints of the autographs of each player. I loved that kit of amber shirts, dark blue shorts and amber socks which was the classic kit of those times.

Unfortunately you are right Sean. I was only 14 at the time and even performing poorly, we should have still won that game. It was summed up when with a few minutes left, Jimmy Husband headed over from close in when Bally was stood behind him waiting to put the ball into the net. ⚽️

Alan Ball collecting his losers medal after the 1968 FA Cup Final. His devastation is clear knowing that we had beaten WBA 6-2 at The Hawthorns a few weeks earlier and had enough good chances to have won the game before it went into extra time and WBA’s Jeff Astle scored the only goal of the game.
