Diniyar Bilyaletdinov has been named Everton's player of the month for October.

The Russian scored two superb goals at Goodison Park against Wolves and Aston Villa to earn the Blues vital points.

The midfielder picked up the accolade at a special lunch at the stadium on Thursday afternoon attended by sponsors of the Club.

"It is a very big honour for me,' he told evertonfc.com. 'I have also had chance to meet the fans and have a meal with them as they present my award."

In a month that has also seen Billy play for Russia and hit two sensational strikes for his national team, the midfielder says he can often be his own worst critic.

He continued: "I was pleased to score last month but I was disappointed at the same time though because we dropped points in the two games and I felt I could have scored more.

"I am quite critical of myself. I take criticism on board from the coach, my father and my friends but the best critic for you to have is yourself. My own opinion about myself pushes me to do better and improves my game."

Bilyaletdinov returns to the squad for the Merseyside derby on Sunday following his three match suspension for the red card shown to him against Villa.

Billy hopes he will return with a bang with his name on the score sheet.

"I enjoy scoring at Goodison Park. I hope I score more throughout the season in front of the home crowd."
