Baines wants Everton to win ugly

By FOX Sports Staff

Everton are currently six points behind fourth-placed Tottenham despite a strong start to the season, with their faltering form seeing them win one of their last five games.

They will next travel to Carrow Road to face Norwich, and Baines is ready for a gritty battle in order to notch up a win.

"They are a good side, Norwich," he told the Liverpool Echo. "They started the season well.

"We have found it tough against them and we had a tough game against them down there last season. They are strong at home.

"If we want to achieve something draws aren't going to cut it. We have to find ways to get games won. Sometimes it may not be pretty, but it is about getting games won.

"We have got to keep clean sheets and get people scoring."

Everton were pegged back by a late goal from Oldham in last week's FA Cup tie and face a replay at Goodison Park, where Baines is confident that they can push for another victory.

"It was a bit of a shock because the goal came so late," he continued. "We were disappointed because we want to go through but we have got the replay at Goodison Park and so we will fancy our chances.

"We must now pick ourselves up and go again. We can't really ask for much more than a home tie with a side who play a couple of leagues below you.

"If we lose then we only have ourselves to blame. Our destiny is in our own hands. We have got to look forward now.

"We would've liked more from the last two games but we still believe we can achieve something. The games coming up are very winnable."
