David Moyes has said that he still believes that Everton can finish in the top half of the Premier League table this season.

The Scot, whose side are in seventh place in the league, have a one-point lead over rivals Liverpool and Fulham in eighth and ninth ahead of this afternoon's trip to Manchester United.

"I've said all along that we could finish in the top 10," he told the Liverpool Echo. "I think it would be a great result.

"For us to get to the last four of the FA Cup was a big achievement. To be in the position we are in the league is a big achievement.

"A lot of clubs have spent to be in a position where we are. We didn't."

Meanwhile, the Everton boss admits that his side need "picking up" after their FA Cup semi-final defeat.
