Steve Round confident of Everton upturn

Everton assistant manager Steve Round has every confidence that the Toffees will recover from a slow start to the season and end in a position towards the top end of the Premier League table.

Round's side have won just once in their opening seven league games, with a Merseyside derby at home to fellow strugglers Liverpool next on the agenda.

He told the Daily Post:"We are not happy with where we are and we began addressing that against Birmingham.

"The team are determined to continue that and the players still believe they can finish in the upper echelons of this division.

"The improved result and level of performance from Birmingham has to continue against Liverpool and if we can do that, then I have every confidence we can go on a great run and end up very high in the table.

"I have so much belief in these players and when you have a manager like David Moyes, who drives the players every day and won't settle for less than the very best they can give, then you know success is on the way."Subscribe to Football FanCast News Headlines by Email
