Everton midfielder, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Steven-Pienaar-c34208, feels it is still too early to judge his side’s emphatic start to the season, insisting instead that their true position will reflect better after 10 games.
The Toffees have gotten off their EPL campaign off to a sparkling start, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Racing-c40298 to a 13-point tally in just 6 games.
Currently, they find themselves in the 2nd place in the table, ahead of Manchester United and Manchester City, and only behind toppers, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786.
Everton are notorious of their struggles in the preliminary stages of the season. However, the men in blue seem to have shunned their appellation of being the ‘slow starters’, as they look to upstage the EPL’s establishment.
Pienaar, though, believes that it was still too early to label their start as a success.
Instead, he was of the opinion that their performance can be better gauged once they had completed their first ten games, and there was still a long way to go before they could realise their dream of securing a Champions League berth.
“We are not there yet. After 10 games we can say how well we have done,” he told the reporters.
“We have been working really hard and it's important to get the points to make sure we break away from the other teams below us. But there's still a long way to go.”
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019 have already being started to be considered by many as the Premier League’s surprise package, based on their phenomenal run since the turn of the year.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Moyes’ unit have only lost a single match in their last 15 league outings.
Nonetheless, the South African International claimed that his side’s scintillating start did not come as a surprise to him.
He cited the presence of multiple world class players and the strong depth in the squad to insist that their current standing in the league did not come as a fluke.
“[The start] hasn't exceeded my expectations. The manager asked for us to start the season well and, to be honest, the way we ended last season, it's no wonder we've carried that form on,” he added.
The midfielder then went on to express his commendation for team-mate http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marouane-Fellaini-c24295 for the impact that he has made this term, terming him as the central figure in the team.
