David Moyes does U-turn over relegation fire-fighting stance

Speaking to BBC Sport in December, Moyes made his feelings clear about not being open to a job where he is required to fight relegation.

The 61-year-old stressed: “But I would only want it [a new managerial role] to be a good part. I wouldn’t want to be coming in and doing something which is very difficult.”

“I don’t want to be at the bottom of the league and fighting relegation which I have had a few times, so we will see how things go.”

However, with Everton languishing in 19th place, David Moyes has done a U-turn over his stance, agreeing to take on the tough task emphasises how deeply he loves the club.
