Everton fans responded to David Moyes' return but he's just found out how hard his job at the Toffees will be. [Liverpool Echo]
Everton were "furious" about Amadou Onana not being sent off in their 1-0 loss against Aston Villa on Wednesday, according to Leon Osman:
"Everton are furious, I don't think there's any getting away from that, they felt there was a break on. Onana, it seems, is the player, already on a yellow card, brings Mangala to the ground, I think there is an arm on the shoulder."
The news is not good for forward Armando Broja who might be out for months. Will the Toffees cancel his loan and return the player to Chelsea?
David Moyes updates on Armando Broja:
