Everton manager David Moyes has revealed he decided to offload on-loan striker Jo back to Manchester City after the Brazilian failed to turn up for training again this week.[LNB]The Toffees boss feared the 22-year-old, who had already been fined and suspended for returning to his homeland over Christmas without permission, was becoming too much of a disruptive influence.[LNB]Jo returned to training at the beginning of last week but when he failed to turn up at the club's Finch Farm complex on Monday Moyes' patience ran out and he decided to cut short the season-long loan.[LNB]City immediately loaned him out yesterday to Turkish side Galatasaray.[LNB]'Jo didn't come in over Christmas so we fined and suspended him,' said Moyes.[LNB]'I brought him back in, spoke to him and explained to the players I was going to give him another chance and he came and trained with us last week.[LNB]'And then he didn't turn up for training on Monday again so I don't know how many more chances I can give people.
