EVERTON manager David Moyes once again bemoaned tired legs as his side slumped to defeat at Bolton.[LNB]Goals form Louis Saha and MArouane Fellaini enabled the blues to fight bakc from2-0 down but Ivan Klasnic's late winner completed a bad week for Moyes, whose depleted squad were thrashed 5-0 in Benfica on Thursday night,[LNB]'It was a long way to come from 2-0 down, but I thought we deserved to be back in it, that we had done enough,' Moyes said.[LNB]'But we ran out of steam with about 20 minutes to go. We didn't really have the personnel to make changes, but we're not using that as an excuse - we should never have been 2-0 down, never have got ourselves into that situation.[LNB]'I just told them (at half-time) to go on and win the game - I thought that it was there for us.[LNB]'When we got it back to 2-1 I thought we were in the ascendancy for periods and I thought if we could do the same we would get another goal, which we did.[LNB]'But when it got to 2-2 we stepped off it and ran out of energy.'[LNB]Bolton boss Gary Megson praised the striking instincts of Klasnic after the Croatian hit his late winner.[LNB]Klasnic came off the bench to give Wanderers their first Premier League home win of the season when he rifled the ball past Tim Howard with three minutes remaining.[LNB]It was the 29-year-old's first goal in English football and Megson said he was not surprised to see him get off the mark.[LNB]'Ivan has just got one thought in his mind when he's in there,' Megson said.[LNB]'He had a shot just before that from about 20 yards when really he should have passed it to Chung-Yong Lee.
