To be fair I think everyone thought it was a good signing - we all trusted Moyes enough to know that long term the lad would be quality.
We also knew that in the midst of a push for the Champions League that season, a teenage right back from Barnsley as our sole transfer activity wasn't going to cut it.

What virus you plant pot
Hope it's an anti virus, our defence could do with one.

And speaking at his pre-match press conference on Wednesday afternoon, Blues boss Roberto Martinez said: "John Stones and Leon Osman will be monitored. Leon is carrying a knock and John is carrying a virus. We'll give them as much time as they need.
Think the other good thing is Martinez rated the lad enough to try and sign him for Wigan, but he decided to join us.
That simply didnt happen.

Rightly so btw, Negredo could well have taken us to Europe, Stones didn't put on a shirt for 9 months
The 19-year-old could have been forgiven for wondering whether he would be given the cold shoulder when Martinez turned up at Goodison Park last summer, but the pair have enjoyed a productive working relationship which has the Toffees pushing for a top-four finish and Stones knocking on the door of a first senior call-up with England.
He said in the Daily Express: "I was driving up to Wigan while my agents were there as I had been at training at Barnsley in the morning.
"I got the call to say the bid had been accepted, then later on I had another call to say that Everton had also had a bid accepted.
"It was a decision for my career. Everton was the right move for me. I let Roberto know and he accepted it.
"I remember having to go into his office on the first day. It was a strange feeling being at Everton, yet having him as my manager.
"He said: 'We are together now, we are at the same club, so let's move forward from here.' It was a good feeling.
"I wanted to work with him, though, and it's good that it has worked out for the both of us."

I'd trust Moyes in the transfer market 100%. Of course it's impossible to get all signings correct. But considering our standing and cash flow in his era, his transfer dealings really were excellent.
