Everton boss David Moyes would like to see his players to begin entertaining fans.

The Goodison gaffer wants to see them follow the lead of the 2005 side, who earned a Champions League slot.

Moyes insisted: "You can win with flair but we won a lot of games 1-0 that year.

"We were hard to beat, so there are different ways of skinning the cat. Last week there was a period where you said 'Boy, oh boy, this is as good as it gets'. I want that for much longer periods.

"I'd rather use the word 'win' than entertaining because winning is everything.

"Did anyone think a manager taking over Everton who were near the bottom at the time would make them into the side the fans would applaud?

"What I've had is time to get to a point where I'm now asked about entertaining.

"Back in 2004-05 we had really good players. The challenge I am setting the boys now is can you be as consistent as that team?

"That is part of the battle. But the spirit here has grown, I think it is in the DNA of the club. People walk in and there is a smell of energy."
