Forget Dibling: Moyes Learnt Another Valuable Charly Alcaraz Lesson

· GiveMeSport

David Moyes gains insights on Dibling and Alcaraz in Everton's victory over Wolves in the Carabao Cup.

Everton manager David Moyes will have been impressed with the performance of Tyler Dibling vs Wolves, but he also would have learned a valuable lesson about Charly Alcaraz.

The Toffees secured a 1-0 victory in the Carabao Cup as they advanced to the next round, where they will face Newcastle at home.

The win ensured that Everton remain unbeaten in all competitions, with only Ipswich Town awaiting in the Premier League before the international break.

It's been a reasonable start to the season for Moyes' side. The Scottish manager will perhaps be disappointed by the number of draws his team have had, but they're in a strong position heading towards the international break.

A win against Ipswich could see Everton pushing for the European places, and although it's early days, it's a positive sign heading towards the winter.

Dibling was the player to catch all the headlines against Wolves, and deservedly so after such an impressive performance.

The youngster has struggled for game time since his move from Southampton to the Hill Dickinson Stadium, only making a handful of starts since joining the club.

As mentioned, Dibling was the name up in lights, but Alcaraz is someone who deserves a lot of credit.

There won't be many fans demanding that Alcaraz now becomes a regular starter for the Toffees, but Moyes may have learned that the Argentinian attacking midfielder deserves more minutes.

Moyes has barely utilised Alcaraz over the course of his time at the club, but he's a player who regularly makes an impact when given the opportunity.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is the player often selected to be the regular starter in the number 10 position, and understandably so.

The former Chelsea man often comes up with crucial goals and assists, but he's struggled to produce too much this season.

Dewsbury-Hall, overall this campaign, has been fairly disappointing, and although he probably should still be a starter, but there's no reason why Moyes shouldn't be switching him and Alcaraz more often during games.

Alcaraz deserves more opportunities to impress, and his cameo performance against Wolves shows that he's a player who is capable of being a match-winner.
