Everton boss Moyes axed Lescott to bench

Everton boss Dave Moyes dropped England defender Joleon Lescott to the bench for their 2-2 draw at Hull City.

After still conceding two goals, Moyes lamented: "It was two set-pieces, the first one we got outjumped on, the second was just poor communication and bad defending.

"It's not the way we want it. I think a lot of it has been down to communication and understanding.

"Normally we are very good at it but at this moment in time we are not so we are going to work even harder to get back to the standards we set last year."
