Moyes backs ‘club decision’ to drop Grealish for Newcastle tie
The Everton manager praised the club's 'really good values' and discipline after the on-loan Manchester City winger reportedly missed training.
Everton manager David Moyes praised the club's decision to exclude Jack Grealish from their team for the League Cup match against Newcastle. Grealish, who is on loan at Manchester City, reportedly skipped training prior to the match and was left out of the squad at Hill Dickinson Stadium. Moyes did not provide further details on the reason for Grealish's absence but expressed support for the club's decision.
He highlighted the strong values within the Everton team, emphasizing that all players adhere to these values both on and off the pitch. Moyes also noted that the players' adherence to these values contributed to their successful performance in the match, which they won 3-1. The victory secured Everton's progression to the quarter-finals of the competition, where they will face fourth-tier side Fleetwood in December.
Moyes expressed optimism about the team's chances of reaching the semi-finals, despite the competition's history of avoiding major trophies for Everton, who last won the FA Cup in 1995.
