Everton's stars need to improve their decision-making if they want to climb the table and get back into the Premier League top six, according to one of their own.
The Spanish midfielder Mikel Arteta's side sit second-bottom of the Premier League with only two points. Many Toffees fans expected a turnaround in fortunes after they came back from two goals behind to draw with Manchester United earlier in the month.
That has not happened however, and one week later Everton were beaten at home by newly-promoted Newcastle before getting knocked out of the Carling Cup by League One side Brentford, a real football betting upset.
Everton travel to the capital to face Fulham at the weekend and Arteta has told EvertonTV that he is confident the club will find their winning ways soon.
The talismanic midfielder claims the club are making too many mistakes, which are leading to goals, while not scoring the chances they are getting. He added Everton are on the "wrong side" of a "fine line between success and failure."
"We need to stand up and we need to show our character now. I know it's tough and we've got some tough games coming up. It is not going to be easy but we have to start winning now," he stated.
"I think scoring the first goal is going to be really important so let's see if we can get it. We need to play with the same confidence we have been but this time make the right choices in both boxes."
Everton boss David Moyes has said something very similar to Arteta, by putting the blame for their struggling fortunes on the club's strikers. The Premier League relegation betting suggests they could go down.
The Scottish manager is desperate to lead the Goodison Park club back into the Premier League top six, but has admitted he is "worried" by the current results and needs his misfiring strikers to start finding the back of the net soon.
