Billy Picks Up Award

Diniyar Bilyaletdinov has been named Everton's player of the month for October.

The Russian scored two superb goals at Goodison Park against Wolves and Aston Villa to earn the Blues vital points.

The midfielder picked up the accolade at a special lunch at the stadium on Thursday afternoon attended by sponsors of the Club.

"It is a very big honour for me,” he told evertonfc.com. “I have also had chance to meet the fans and have a meal with them as they present my award."

In a month that has also seen Billy play for Russia and hit two sensational strikes for his national team, the midfielder says he can often be his own worst critic.

He continued: "I was pleased to score last month but I was disappointed at the same time though because we dropped points in the two games and I felt I could have scored more.

"I am quite critical of myself.  I take criticism on board from the coach, my father and my friends but the best critic for you to have is yourself.  My own opinion about myself pushes me to do better and improves my game."

Bilyaletdinov returns to the squad for the Merseyside derby on Sunday following his three match suspension for the red card shown to him against Villa.

Billy hopes he will return with a bang with his name on the score sheet.

"I enjoy scoring at Goodison Park.  I hope I score more throughout the season in front of the home crowd."

robert l lloydPLEASE GET billy to do more on the training ground with his right foot,,he broke my heart on sunday with that miss,,,,and also to calm down after he has been tackled,,he got booked again last night (AEK) cos he ggot annoyed cos the defender tackled him,,keep up the good work lads and we will turn this around and maybe a INVESTOR might just be around the corner

William Mc DonaldI will never knock everton. I know we have a lot of injuries, but how can we go three nil down to Hull in the the first half, no disrespect to Hull fair play, but I think Everton are not that bad, Billy is superb and is one of Moyseys better decisions

Malcolm BubbGreat start Bily'! Hopefully - recent results aside - you can see there are some world class players around you, others with great potential and one of the best managers in the country. We need a hell of a second half to the season, though!
