No goal targets for Saha

February 11, 2010

in Premier League News

The Frenchman netted twice as his side came from behind to beat Chelsea at Goodison Park.

The former Manchester United striker even missed a penalty as Everton secured a memorable 2-1 victory.

Saha recently signed a new two-year contract, and he is now focused on buckling down and giving his best for the team.

“It’s really good to have the contract talk settled,” Saha told the club’s official website.

“It was a bit stressful and I’m glad we found an agreement. Now I want to show every day and at every opportunity that I can work hard.

“I don’t set goal targets. I just want to play most of the games and get myself in a good position to score more goals and they will come. The main thing is to stay at the right level.

“I signed and committed my future to the club and my aim is to do the best I can.”

team spirit

Saha was keen to play down his own performance against Chelsea, instead emphasising the work of the team in beating the league leaders.

He added: “It was not about my performance, more about a great team spirit. I’m so happy to be a part of it.

“It was always going to be hard after we lost in the derby (against Liverpool) even though I don’t think we played badly.

“It seemed like it was just not our day, so against a big club like Chelsea it was important we showed our belief and we took the opportunity.

“Now the main thing is that Everton are going up. It’s a big month and we need to concentrate and keep the same level of performance as we climb up the table.”
