Everton manager has praised on loan midfielder Landon Donovan for the instant impact he has had since arriving from LA Galaxy on a two month loan.
Whilst fellow MLS loanees Thierry Henry and Robbie Keane will probably find themselves on the bench during their two month loan, it appears that Donovan will be a first team regular for Everton throughout the two months of his loan spell.
"Robbie Keane and Thierry Henry have come back to the Premier League from America and they need a bit of time to settle because of having a break since the end of the MLS," said Moyes.
"But Landon has come in and played three or four 90 minute games already on the bounce since he arrived and that says a lot. It's a testament to the professional he is. He was the best player on the pitch at Villa.
"His work rate was terrific. I played him on the right, left, then down the middle because he was the one who looked as if he had the energy. We've never had the chance to take him off in games because we need him so much with his running and the quality he has on the ball.
"Now we are going to try and give him a couple of days off so I don't burn him out before he goes back to LA."
