Everton boss Dave Moyes says Marouane Fellaini is now beginning to settle at Goodison Park.

"I think he is playing really well," Moyes told evertonfc.com.

"I thought he had a good game at City. It was a better performance all around. He is getting much more used to the game now. And I can see him settling. It's been difficult for the boy because he can't really communicate yet.

"But I have seen him in the last week or two trying to have a laugh and joke with the squad. He's getting closer to them. Maybe he's just starting to see how our group dynamics work. They have got a really good spirit and they look after each other. Everyone mucks in."

And the boss reiterated just why he decided to part with a Club record transfer fee to bring the 21-year-old to Goodison.

"I think Felli has come in and done very well," he continued.

"He will continue to develop. He wasn't bought just for the now - he was bought for the future. We found that if we didn't buy him now, his price would go up or he would have been bought by one of the bigger clubs. We had to do it."
