Beckford bow offers hope to Moyes
Everton manager David Moyes has backed new boy Jermaine Beckford to turn around his side's poor start to the Barclays Premier League season after watching his side throw away a golden chance of three points against Wolves.
Moyes' men largely dominated at Goodison Park but a blunt attacking edge stopped them building on Tim Cahill's opener before Sylvan Ebanks-Blake struck an equaliser out of nowhere 15 minutes from time.
The Toffees boss was full of praise for the efforts of Cahill but he also believes free transfer signing Beckford will quickly adapt to Premier League life after showing flashes of class on his home debut.
Moyes, who withdrew the former Leeds man to a standing ovation in the 71st minute, said: "I thought Jermaine gave us something else. You can see he looks to be a threat and I'm sure he is going to get us goals.
"You've got to take your chances when you get them. We had some great chances to make it 2-0 in the second half. Tim Cahill played well but I don't know if we gave their `keeper enough to do."
