Royston Drenthe insists he is enjoying himself at Goodison Park

Drenthe enjoying life at Everton

Royston Drenthe has said that he is enjoying life at Everton since joining on loan from Real Madrid.

During the Dutchman's injury lay-off, rumours began to appear claiming that Drenthe had fallen out with manager David Moyes.

The attacking midfielder has since dismissed those claims.

"It was really frustrating that I was injured for three weeks," said Drenthe.

"I couldn't train because it would have made it worse, but to play again and be important for the team gives me a good feeling.

"The moment I came in the gaffer told me 'Try to do whatever you can and when you get the ball go direct and use your quality'.

"I have a responsibility because I know my quality and if I have to go home with the feeling I haven't done what I could do, it is always a bad feeling."

Drenthe made his debut for the Toffees in the 2-2 draw with Villa in September.
