Everton have been impressive so far this season, having already beaten Manchester United, and how have 10 points from a possible 15, sitting third in the league. Moyes says that he is pleased with their style of play, and says that a place in the Europa League is a possibility for the club.
"I'm not an optimist, but I said to the players afterwards: 'I'm enjoying watching you play,'" Moyes told the Daily Telegraph.
"There were times at this point last season when I wouldn't have paid to watch us play. I would definitely pay to come and watch us now.
"A Champions League place would probably be seen as unrealistic with the quality of the Premier League, but I think pushing for a European place is a realistic target for Everton.
"European football is something I think everyone at Everton would like to get back. The first thing is always to get 40 points and get yourself safe, so I don't want to get carried away too quickly."
