Moyes is small time

The Bitters' manager has had a whinge about Liverpool ahead of tonight's FA Cup fourth round replay.

"I think Liverpool have had an awful lot going for them," whinged Moyes.

"We are whole-hearted but when you get players lying on the floor and waving their hands suggesting cards and the referee is missing challenges, it's very hard.

"But we will keep going. We won't be provoked by it. The Everton players have done really well. We will be disciplined but, more importantly, we will keep doing what we have been doing. These boys have been very good of late.

"We thought we had a penalty kick [in the cup game at Anfield] when Steven Pienaar was tackled from behind. Was it much worse than the one Mikel Arteta gave away at Old Trafford?

"There are moments in games when you think it could have gone for you but it doesn't and that's it."

Moyes' comments make a mockery of his claim that Everton are the club that act with dignity.
