Everton’s David Moyes and Phil Jagielka have been named
Premier League Manager and Player of the month for
February.
Shorn of an abundance of first-team players, Moyes last month
guided The Toffees to league wins at home to both Bolton and West
Brom as well as a draw at Newcastle.
Jagielka meanwhile has continued to impress with the kind
of form that caught Fabio Capello’s eye enough to earn him a
friendly start against Spain.
It is the first time that Jagielka has been awarded the prize
but the fifth occasion that Moyes has been named the best of the
bunch.
"Of course I am pleased with the recognition,” he said humbly.
“But it is not for me, it is the players who have done their jobs.
It is for the whole club.
"What I want is a trophy for the whole club to enjoy now, not
just for me. It is hard to drag this award away from Sir Alex
Ferguson these days, so that is something to be proud of."
