Everton midfielder Jesper Lindstrom says he is building “confidence” and “getting a feel” for the Premier League, after signing on a season-long loan from Serie A side Napoli this summer.

Speaking to BBC Radio Merseyside following the 1-0 defeat by Southampton, Lindstrom said: “We have a better team than what we show on the pitch, so there is a level of competition [in the team]. Everybody has to train well, otherwise you don’t play.

“I had a good training week and I think that’s why I started this game. I have to keep going; everybody has to keep going. We have to demand something from each other and everybody has to fight for the team.”

The Denmark international added that the Toffees’ next fixture against West Ham United, who are also floating in the bottom half of the table, is “a six-point game”.

“Every game is very important,” Lindstrom said. “But this is a team that is around us, so we have to win against them to go on top of them.

“West Ham are good, especially at home, so it is going to be tough. We have to demand more, fight and train hard.

“If we perform like this [against Southampton], we aren’t going to win [against West Ham]. We have to look in the mirror and tell ourselves to get better.”
