Everton boss Moyes encouraged by Beckford performance

Everton boss David Moyes is excited by the way Jermaine Beckford has settled at Goodison Park.

After their draw with Wolves, Moyes says he believes free transfer signing Beckford will quickly adapt to Premier League life after showing flashes of class on his home debut.

Moyes, who withdrew the former Leeds man to a standing ovation in the 71st minute, said: "I thought Jermaine gave us something else. You can see he looks to be a threat and I'm sure he is going to get us goals.

"You've got to take your chances when you get them. We had some great chances to make it 2-0 in the second half. Tim Cahill played well but I don't know if we gave their 'keeper enough to do."
