Saha thanks Moyes for career saving move

Louis Saha has paid tribute to David Moyes for saving his career.

The Frenchman bid farewell to Everton yesterday as he joined Spurs on an initial six month contract, with the option of a further year, and in his last interview with evertonTV the 32 year old credited Moyes with kickstarting his career after an injury ravaged spell at Manchested United.

He told evertontv: “I have to say thank you to Everton and particularly David Moyes because they helped me when I really needed it and I will never forget that.

“Leaving a great club like Everton is always a bit sad, but things come to an end, and I also want to say thanks to the supporters as there have been good times and bad times but I have always felt supported and loved.

“Goodison is a special stadium and you can feel the spirit of so many great sportsmen when you go on the pitch. It has been an honour and a privilege as a football player to play there.

“Everton is a family club. There is a great spirit and it always felt like home. It is a very honest place and people are always straight with you. It has been a pleasure to play for Everton and I always felt the players were ambitious and wanted to improve and when you have that combination you have a great club.”
