Steven Pienaar has finally become a full-time Everton player, signing a three year deal for a fee of 2.2 million pounds.

Pienaar, who has been such an influential figure since arriving on loan from Borussia Dortmund last July, cost the Blues a fee of just over £2m.

So good has his form been - particularly in the first half of the campaign - that Moyes claimed recently it was one of the reasons Everton’s football has improved.

“Steven has done well for us,” said Moyes of a player whose 35 appearances have yielded two goals and a plethora of assists.

“He is a really good football player.”

Here’s to hoping that Pienaar will once again, next season, prove what a gem he is. Welcome to paradise, Steven.
