David Moyes still wants glory despite FA Cup gloss fading

EVERTON manager David Moyes believes some of the gloss has been taken off the FA Cup but that does not mean he has less of an interest in winning it.

The Goodison outfit have not lifted a trophy since their 1995 FA Cup victory over Manchester United and tomorrow they face Merseyside rivals Liverpool at Anfield for the second time within a week.

Moyes would like nothing better than dumping out their neighbours and continuing that run all the way to Wembley.

“I don’t think it is the same Cup as everyone knew,” said Moyes.“The draw is not on the same day as we wanted it on and they play semi-finals at Wembley, which no-one wants.

“Overall I think there is a general lack of respect for the FA now – not for their cup competition but generally for the FA.

“But I’m looking forward to being in the cup and hopefully getting through.

“I would like to win the Cup but there is big obstacle in front of us and we need to get over it before we can talk about winning the Cup.”
