Neville calls on David Moyes to spend in January

Everton captain Phil Neville is hoping the club will spend in January to give the current squad a boost following the departures of Jermaine Beckford and Mikel Arteta.One player who has been linked with a return to Goodison Park is LA Galaxy forward and USA international Landon Donovan following a previous successful loan spell, though Neville doubts that deal could materialise.\"Everyone loved Landon,\" Neville told the Liverpool Echo. \"We enjoyed having him here, and he used Everton running up to the World Cup to stay fit.\"I think that was the only reason he came, or maybe he would have come the year after.\"Everton have been severely restricted in recent seasons in the transfer market due to the club\'s finances, but following the departure of Beckford and Arteta on deadline day in August, the former Manchester United man is hopeful of investment in the squad next month. \"I think new signings would give everyone a boost. We need a lift - I think the whole club does in a way,\" he added. \"We sold a couple of players late on in the last window and brought a couple of players in who are going to take time to bed in. \"I always think in January, particularly since I came to Everton, you can make a difference then. \"I remember we signed Jo a couple of years back and it gave everyone a lift. He scored a few goals, and it\'s good to see a new face around. \"The manager has done it every January; he has brought someone in. It might not be for money, it might be a free transfer, but he\'s brought someone in to pick us up.\"
