Everton boss Moyes eager to cool Barkley expectations after Arsenal performance

Everton boss David Moyes was delighted with Ross Barkley's performance for their draw at Arsenal.

"It was a good game for Ross and we just need to bring him along at his own pace," Moyes said.

"There's an awful lot of folk expecting big things from him but he is not quite ready for that [expectation] yet, so I have to take it bit by bit."
