Everton’s players have shown some great unity over recent weeks and some strong bonds are emerging between certain individuals.
Jack Grealish was the hero last week during the away trip to face Bournemouth down on the south coast.
The past few weeks have been extremely positive for Everton, who have been able to move into the top half of the table.
Grealish was not pleased with his performance against Nottingham Forest at the weekend despite the comfortable victory.
Having joined from Manchester City on loan, the 30-year-old has had no issues with settling in on Merseyside.
James Tarkowski joked Grealish is Moyes’ favourite, but there is one player at Finch Farm who the winger considers to be like a brother.

Jake O’Brien has said Grealish could beat any defender in the world with his ability one-on-one with the opposition.
As the club’s right-back, O’Brien will have to come up against Grealish in training at Finch Farm.
And it seems that may have led to a tight bond between the two, with Grealish recently responding to O’Brien’s recent Instagram post.

After posting a number of photos to his Instagram account, Grealish was the only Everton player to reply, he said: ‘My Brother’ with a blue heart emoji.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall thinks O’Brien has so much potential and he has impressed playing out of position at right-back.
The Ireland international enjoyed a brief return to centre-back for the win over Bournemouth, but returned to right-back at the weekend.
Earlier in the season, Moyes demanded more from O’Brien in an attacking sense, which he may be able to learn from his good friend Grealish in training.

It has been a difficult past couple of years for Grealish, but he seems to have found a home at Everton where he can express himself once again.
Everton News understands that Everton are open to Grealish signing permanently in the summer, but a compromise may have to be made by Manchester City on the fee.
Important weeks lie ahead for Grealish, who will have the opportunity to impress Thomas Tuchel as his responsibility grows with Iliman Ndiaye departing next week for AFCON.
