Everton manager David Moyes has expressed his delight at his side's start to the Premier League season after their win against Manchester United.

Belgian midfielder Marouane Fellaini scored the only goal of the game when his header found the back of the net in the 57th minute to secure the Toffees a 1-0 victory at Goodison Park.

In recent years, Everton have often gotten off to slow start before finishing the campaign strongly, but Moyes is pleased to have won their first game of the season.

"I'm really pleased because we performed ever so well," said Moyes.

"We've often started the season slowly but just because we've won one game doesn't mean we've had a good start - as it would not have been a bad start had we lost.

"The only time we had a really good start here we ended in the Champions League places. I don't know if that's possible but it would be nice for us not to be playing catch up."

Next up for Everton is a trip to Aston Villa on Saturday.
