Moyes accepts 'living with disappointments' after transfer deadline

Everton manager David Moyes says he must "live with disappointments" after admitting he wanted to do more business on transfer deadline day. BBC Sport reported Moyes acknowledged he had hoped to complete additional deals but that the window closed without the activity he had sought. He accepted the outcome and the need to move forward with what was achieved before the deadline. The manager’s comments underline his disappointment at the limited transfer activity, and signal that Everton will continue under his leadership with the players currently at his disposal.

Community angle

Everton will need to prepare for upcoming matches with the squad unchanged after failing to complete the additional transfers Moyes wanted.

De La Espriella took power last month vowing “all-out war” against illegal armed groups and he published the footage on Thursday in an apparent attempt to show he was fulfilling that pledge.
