Just a couple of weeks ago, David Moyes said he “can’t magician” Everton to scoring some goals.

After Englishman Graham took over at West Ham, some claimed that a Potter might have been required to conjure some wizardry.

In his second appearance at Goodison Park, Moyes is still waving his wand.

On Saturday, Merseyside’s magic number was ten. After that many seconds, Abdoulaye Doucoure’s goal arrived more quickly than Moyes can say “Expelliarmus,” and Leicester’s rout was sealed by fan favorite Iliman Ndiaye, who wears that particular shirt.

Moyes said: “The players have just given themselves a bit of confidence and positivity. We only want to give them the utmost confidence.

We are attempting to score a few more with a strong defensive base and are trying to find more.

Everton have now scored eight goals in their previous three games, all wins, thanks to Saturday’s impressive performance in the 4-0 victory over the dismal Foxes.

Only three of Sean Dyche’s 19 league games this year were won, with Everton not scoring in 11 of them, which is an incredible contrast to what Sean Dyche had in charge.

However, with a game in hand over the top four teams, the win moved the Toffees to 15th place in the table, nine points clear of the relegation zone.

“A brilliant result”, said Moyes. “A great performance in many aspects, sometimes we didn’t play quite so well. We are doing a lot of really good things, and I would say “thank you very much” if you had given me three wins out of four games in the position we are in.

Fans may have desired the fourth official’s board to end early while watching Dyche’s frequently turgid and one-dimensional style of play, but one fan was left asking for “20 more minutes” when the fourth official’s board was raised aloft in stoppage time.

The home supporters were left singing the club’s “Spirit of the Blues” anthem for a long time after the final whistle as the cheerleader Beto, who had been playing the game at full-time, roused the crowd in the Gwladys Street End. Moyes waved to the fans in the main stand while the home crowd danced the club’s “Spirit of the Blues” anthem.

Beto was Everton’s only fit senior striker due to injuries to Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Armando Broja, and Youssef Chermiti, and the Portuguese made an emergency start.

“I’m really pleased for Beto”, Moyes said. “People who have been here for a long time than I will be aware of Beto.” I’m just getting to know him.

” He is a great kid, works hard in training, tries to improve himself. Sometimes in life, you need an opportunity. He had a chance to win this one, and the receptions he received off the pitch today were unmatched.

A “mountain to climb” is the Leicester start left.

Due to the bad weather, Everton will face Merseyside rivals Liverpool in their next league game on February 12.

After defeating Bournemouth 2-0 on Saturday, Arne Slot’s side are in fantastic form, nine points clear of the leader.

On BBC Radio 5 Live, former Reds defender Stephen Warnock said, “Liverpool will now look back and wish they had played that game against Everton before.” Now, they have to face David Moyes.

He is able to prepare his team for a derby, and they are currently in strong form.

Ruud van Nistelrooy, the manager of Leicester, stated: “You are 2-0 up at Goodison against a team with the most clean sheets after 10 seconds and five minutes. You climb a mountain on your own, but you never recover.
