Moyes delighted with Everton youngsters for Bolton win

Everton boss David Moyes was delighted with his youngsters in victory over Bolton Wanderers.

Moyes expressed his delight at seeing the likes of 19-year-old goal scorer Apostolos Vellios make their contribution.

"We had Sylvain Distin, Phil Neville, Jack Rodwell, Royston Drenthe and Victor Anichebe out injured, so our bench was young," Moyes said.

"But it's reached the point now where I'm actually quite enjoying giving the young boys a chance.

"Tolos has come on and scored again. We know Ross Barkley will have more of a chance in the future. Magaye Gueye and Conor McAleny were also on the bench.

"The reserves played really well in midweek, and these guys were playing then as well.

"I was really pleased that I could show them that if they play well, we will reward them by trying to get them towards the team."
