David Moyes has expressed confidence in Jarrad Branthwaite's potential to achieve his England ambitions without leaving Everton. Despite reports of Branthwaite's disappointment at not being selected for Thomas Tuchel's squad, Moyes highlighted the club's history of nurturing England internationals. He cited previous players who made the leap to international recognition while at Everton. Moyes also praised the team's recent performance, noting their unbeaten streak and ability to uplift the club's spirit and support. He credited the players for taking responsibility and turning the club's fortunes around.
"I would say to him Phil Jagielka, Leighton Baines, Joleon Lescott - that's three who we brought in and went on to become international players for England, which was a great achievement."
"This club has developed quite a few England internationals over the years. We've got a very good goalkeeper [Jordan Pickford] who is playing for England as well."
"It [the stats] says that the club and certainly the team are on a better trajectory than we were before. We've started really well. The players have done a brilliant job."
"I have to say that the players have picked themselves right up, they have turned the whole place around - the crowd and the support - and they have gone on a run, which has been really good."
