Even a few Everton legends have been addressing the impact Ferguson appeared to have on the squad. 

Tim Cahill has been linked with a return to Everton himself recently. the appointment of David Moyes would have seen the Australian brought in as his right-hand man.

But yesterday Cahill was only interested in celebrating the display of this Everton side under the guidance of his former team-mate. 

Kevin Sheedy was also impressed. The former Republic of Ireland international spent ten years at Goodison Park, winning the European Cup Winners’ Cup with the Toffees in 1985. 

He was clearly impressed and believes Ferguson has ‘earned’ an opportunity as Everton boss. 

It seems that plenty of Everton fans would agree with that statement.
