Gylfi Sigurdsson has revealed that he is so far under-performing since arriving at Everton.
The Iceland international joined the Toffees this summer from Swansea for £45 million and much was expected from him considering that he was highly impressive last season and played a key role in helping Swansea to avoid relegation.
As a whole Everton have so far underperformed this season and currently lie in 16th position on the League standings after taking just eight points from their opening eight games of the season.
They were expected to challenge for a place in the top four after spending heavily on recruiting new talent during the summer and this will surely be a disappointment to stakeholders and fans.
Sigurdsson said: “It is not going as I hoped. No, of course not. For the team as well. Personally and collectively we are just off our best. That is reflecting in individual performances.
“But it’s small margins. I don’t think we’re a mile off getting results. A couple of scruffy wins would bring some confidence to the team and that’s sometimes all you need.
“We just have to work our way through this. We are not scoring enough goals and we are conceding too many, I don’t think we are too far away but things just aren’t clicking.
“We’re all more than determined to turn it around. We have some big players and hopefully we can start getting better results.”
