Everton midfielder Steven Pienaar revealed that manager David Moyes has been impressing on the squad that he wants an upturn in form ahead of the FA Cup final against Chelsea.
The Toffees have won only one of their four league games since reaching the Wembley showpiece, but are assured of European qualification and a top-six finish.
Pienaar said: "The gaffer has been on our case to raise our game, so we can get to fifth place. We`ve got to keep focused on the matches we still have in the league.
"If we play with confidence and are winning games, we can take that confidence through to the final and that is what the gaffer wants us to do.
"We want to lift our performance in the last matches that we will play. But West Ham are fighting to get into Europe and we know that it is going to be a tough game."

Who is Mancienne? Has he ever played for Chelsea? We don't want to mess around with the middle of our defence anyway. There are already 3 top players fighting for 2 positions.
come on the toffees you can
win on sat hammer them down
like 2 see glen johnson on d right top quality player wiyh bags of speed, hibbet looks slow
they need 2 wingers and a new yop quality centre half. they should maybe sign downing, In dont like him that much but is english and knows the EPL. then maybe joaquim as I dont think he's 1st choice at his club these days for some reason. mancienne would be a good season long loan for him everton and chelsea
