Doucoure urges Everton to compete with top teams

Everton got two essential back to back victories over two rivals, Leicester City and Chelsea.

Everton

started the season so well that everyone thought they might go and compete for the Premier League title with

Ancelotti

. However, they could not keep the good form and became inconsistent with the results. In the last two matches however, they managed to defeat

Chelsea

and

Leicester City

.

Abdoulaye Doucoure

hopes that Everton can compete with the top clubs in the Premier League.

“We knew before the match we could close the gap on the teams at the top,”

said the midfielder.

It was the same (mindset) before the game (a 1-0 win) against Chelsea. To win these two games is very good for us and we need to keep going in this way.

“It was a great result. We fought for every ball. We know this league is very competitive and the teams are very close together in the table.”

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has scored 11 of the Blues’ 23 league goals this season and Doucoure knows the importance of different scorers.

“We are so happy for Mason and Richarlison,” he told the club’s official site. “Mason scored from a set-piece and it is important to be dangerous from them.

“Richarlison also scored, which for his confidence is very good.

“Dominic has been in great form, of course, he didn’t score against Leicester but it is good for the team to have other goalscorers, too.”
