Plan backfired - Moyes

Everton boss David Moyes admitted he could have made a mistake in the last 15 minutes of his side`s 1-1 draw at home to Stoke. The Scot brought on two big strikers, Jo and Ayegbeni Yakubu, before attempting to launch an aerial assault to attempt to force a win. But the move backfired with Everton failing to create a single serious chance in that spell as they fell away to see their run of five successive wins brought to an end. Moyes said: "I tried something different at the end, sending on a couple of strikers. We had a go, but I`m not sure whether it worked very well. "I don't think it made us better, the style we were playing before that was reaping rewards and we were more likely. When we went with the big men we looked stale and more frantic."
