"I'm too old now to say we just want to avoid relegation, But I'm not daft enough to say Europe is fully possible, I don't think we are quite ready. But we will keep knocking at the door. I was pleased we kept another clean sheet. I know that sounds negative, but that's the place to start from. Winning any game in the Premier League is difficult at the moment, and going three ahead late on is good."
"It's huge for him, and it was coming, it was certainly due. He's got to score, when you're playing centre forward, otherwise we will find someone to replace him. This Club should be challenging for Europe or in Europe, but people need to give us time and understand how bad it's been in the last few years. But I'm going for it - and so are the players."
Everton moved fifth in the Premier League after a 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest at Hill Dickinson Stadium, their fourth victory in five matches. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall forced an own goal after 83 seconds, Thierno Barry scored his first Everton goal on the stroke of half-time, and Dewsbury-Hall sealed the points with a late finish. Everton have won three of their last five home league games (D1 L1) and kept a clean sheet. Manager David Moyes expressed cautious ambition for Europe, praised Barry, stressed defensive foundations, and called for time given recent difficulties, while Dewsbury-Hall showed optimism and appreciation for the fans.
