Everton are sitting fifth in the Premier League table after three games.
David Moyes’ side has won their last two league games, which came against Brighton and Wolverhampton.
The Toffees look like a different team, in no small part due to former Manchester City man, Jack Grealish.
David Moyes was full of praise for the Englishman following his latest performance.
What did Moyes say about Grealish?
Speaking to the media after Everton’s win, Moyes said, “He is even better than I thought.
“He probably needs a bit of love and attention. He needs the games as well.”

Grealish has started in two of Everton’s league games, recording four assists in his last two.
Moyes continued, “Hopefully, he starts building on it and he gets even better as the season goes on. He is making a big difference. Whether it is his assists, his presence, lots of things.
“So all credit to him. He is playing the minutes he may not have had in recent years. You know, he’s so good. What Jack gives us is something just on the edge, which, hopefully it’s on the edge of creativeness and maybe scoring goals.”
Grealish has yet to open his scoring account for the Toffees, but he came close against Wolves, drawing a save from goalkeeper Jose Sa.
Moyes was asked whether he had anything to do with Grealish’s form, and the manager said, “It’s nothing to do with me, let me tell you – it’s all to do with Jack and his own mentality to be better.
“There’s a wee bit to prove, I’m sure – I think we all have. I think in life, you’ve always got something you have to strive to do.
“And I think Jack wants to show that he’s a good player. I think he’s showing it at the moment.”
