Kenwright: Moyes has transformed Everton

Bill Kenwright believes David Moyes "changed Everton forever" the day he walked through the door at Goodison Park seven years ago. Everton's owner and chairman claims manager Moyes has achieved miracles to transform a club down on their luck, and almost down in the Championship, to one now considered European regulars. Moyes, named the League Managers' Association manager of the year on Monday for the third time, will lead Everton out at Wembley on Saturday for the FA Cup final against Chelsea aiming to claim his first trophy since joining the Merseysiders. And Kenwright said of the Scot: "In March 2002 this club changed from the day that David Moyes arrived. He has made this club believe they can look upwards, and for that more than anything else we worship him. "He deserves all the accolades and awards that he can get. He has made us more ambitious than any other club. "To beat Chelsea at Wembley would be a massive, massive achievement because they are one of the top four clubs. But we have already beaten two of those already to get to the final, Liverpool and then Manchester United, so we know we can do it."
