Moyes: Pleased with standing

Everton boss David Moyes is happy to be back in the top-four after Sunday's home win, but insists it's staying there which matters most.

The Toffees finished the weekend in fourth spot in the Premier League standings after a late turnaround to beat Tottenham 2-1 at Goodison Park.

It was only the Merseysiders' second win in 10 matches, and Moyes is pleased to see his side picking up three points again after a run of seven draws.

"The position doesn't shame the way the players have been playing they have been doing that well," he said.

"But we could quite easily have slipped out and been in the bottom half of the league.

"It feels good (to beat Spurs) but we have to make sure we maintain that."

Nikica Jelavic netted the winner against Spurs, which delighted Moyes after having to watch the Croatian forward struggle for form of late.

"There were signs he was getting a little bit better but he looked a bit frustrated because we weren't getting the ball to him enough," the Scot added.

"But if he can keep getting the goals, and with Steven getting one, it keeps us moving along nicely."
