Everton midfielder James McCarthy has urged the supporters to stick with the team, despite a poor run of form.
The Toffees have won just one of their last 10 Premier League games, while Sunday's draw with Leicester City has left them 12th in the table, and McCarthy admits that such form is not good enough.
He told reporters: "It was a very frustrating day. It has been a frustrating campaign, especially in the league. It's frustrating as a player. As a fan it's no good watching it either. We want to get maximum points at home. The fans have come out in their numbers and we are trying to kick up this table.
"Every one of us knows that we need to address this. We know it is not good enough. We go again on Thursday [in the Europa League] and the fans need to stick with us. I am sure we will bounce back."
Everton next face Young Boys in the Europa League on Thursday.
