Moyes praises Vaughan

David Moyes has moved to praise young Everton striker James Vaughan after a number of impressive displays after returning from his injury nightmare. The young English striker scored the third goal for Everton as they defeated Birmingham 3-1 at the weekend.

  • The Premiership’s youngest ever goal scorer who netted in his first goal when he was just 16 years old, has won the favour of the Toffees manager, who feels that the 19-year old will soon be a terror to the opposition defences.



    “I think James is good enough to force his way in to the starting line up and stay there,” said Moyes on the club's official website.



    “There won’t be many centre-halves who will look forward to playing against James Vaughan when we get him in the condition he should be in.



    “He just needs games now, but there is no doubting he his going to be a really good player for us.



    “He is as game as anybody I’ve known and from that point of view he’s a big asset to Everton.”



    He continued: “He won’t shirk anything. He’ll do as much work as he can. He’ll battle with everyone. He is a different type of centre forward to the others we’ve got.



    “He wants it badly and in this day and age it’s something we love to see. He is so desperate to play and he’s a bit of a throwback in that respect.



    “He’s a very conscientious boy and because of that he’ll continue to improve.



    “There’s technical stuff he needs to work on, because he’s missed a good part of his early development through injury, but work-rate and enthusiasm is never a problem.”
