Moyes became the Premier League’s youngest manager when he took over at Everton in 2002 at the age of 39, and 23 years later he is now the top-flight’s oldest boss.
In his first spell in-charge, Everton consistently finished in the top half of the table, competing in Europe and reaching an FA Cup final.
But he picks up the reigns from Dyche in a very different position.
Everton avoided relegation last season after being docked eight points for two separate breaches of financial fair play rules.
And they are again battling at the wrong end of the table this season, just one point above the relegation zone in 16th place.
Moyes has to ensure the club moves to the new stadium in the summer at Bramley-Moore Dock as a Premier League outfit.
“I don’t think it’ll be the same Everton,” said Moyes, whose first game comes against Aston Villa on Wednesday. “And it’s probably not the same David Moyes. A bit more experience maybe, a bit wiser.
“Ultimately, we’ve got to make sure that we’re not near the bottom. That’s the big key. After that, we can decide how we go and what we do from there.”
He added to BBC Sport: “I see it as a huge pressure and when you care so much about a club and have such a long period [away], it makes me realise it is a really popular club, one that needs to be – and has been – in the top flight.
“It would be a great feeling for us all to be in the new stadium. But it would mainly be great if we are a Premier League club and can give everyone something to shout about.”
