Davis Moyes is prepared to pick and choose the moments he will use Diniyar Bilyaletdinov - to maximise the Russian's match-winning ability, reports the Liverpool Echo. Since joining Everton from Lokomotiv Moscow, Bilyaletdinov has only clocked up 38 minutes of Premier League action - the sum total of two substitute appearances in the wins over Wigan Athletic and Portsmouth.
Moyes is prepared to let Bilyaletdinov spend a certain amount of time on the bench to study the way the English game is played - once he is up to speed, his manager is expecting the Russia international to prove a big hit.
"I will be looking for the right opportunities and moments to use him," said Moyes, who initially wanted to sign Bilyaletdinov during the January transfer window. "I want to bring him on and I want to get him into the side because we need him.
"He has already made a contribution in the games that he has played and that makes me feel that he is going to really help the team.
"His ability to deliver a ball could be a very valuable asset, as it is something we have lacked. Mikel (Arteta) had the ability to do that and we have missed that quality since he's been out injured."
