Andy Johnson's celebration against Liverpool has gone down in Everton history

David Moyes will tonight manage in his first Goodison Park derby since October 2012 when the returning Everton boss and his side welcome Liverpool to the one of the great football grounds for the final time.

Like all Evertonians, he has experienced highs and lows during one of the most fiercely contested derbies in the world.

But perhaps his best memory will always be back in September 2006 when his Blues team destroyed Rafa Benitez's Reds 3-0 thanks to two goals from £8.6m record signing Andy Johnson and one from the heroic Tim Cahill.

The famous victory is captured in the book Fear and Loathing at Goodison Park, which chronicles the first Moyes era at Everton, when a fallen giant of the English game fought to re-establish itself among football's elite.

And we have been allowed to publish an extract from the book, on that 3-0 victory, here...

Two wins and a draw had got the 2006/07 season off to a flying start for David Moyes, his new recruits settling into life in L4 with little fuss.

Andy Johnson in particular had enjoyed a dream start to his Everton career, but a derby day brace for the club’s record signing in a 3-0 victory over Liverpool guaranteed a successful initiation for the 25-year-old.

Indeed, it was Everton’s biggest win over Liverpool since the 4-0 victory at Anfield in 1964, and the biggest at home since the 5-0 drubbing in 1909.

The game started in manic fashion, with the visitors creating an opportunity inside 10 seconds, as Tim Howard saved well from Robbie Fowler’s effort.

One goal to the good, the noise from the Goodison crowd was deafening and as Liverpool searched for a response, the industrious work of Johnson up front began to stretch their defence and the England forward was out for blood.

Capitalising on a Jamie Carragher error, with the Liverpool defender unable to cope with Johnson’s pace and movement, the opportunistic forward finished at the near post in composed fashion to double Everton’s lead 10 minutes before the interval.

Liverpool continued to struggle in the second half, uncertain as they were on how to deal with the in-form Johnson, their indecision about whether or not to sit deep or attempt to take him out higher up the pitch, only lead to further opportunities for Everton, as Cahill and Arteta looked to expose the space in behind.

The now iconic image of Johnson celebrating in front of the Park End by holding up three fingers on his right hand and making a ‘zero’ symbol with his left forged an instant bond between Everton’s new record signing and the supporters, as Goodison marched to the tune of Andy Johnson’s drum.

"Maybe nowadays you need to pay that sort of money to sign a player who’ll make a difference," said Moyes, when discussing Johnson’s club record fee.
