Cahill not bothered about Everton scoring drought

His last goal came more than a year ago but Tim Cahill is not too perturbed about his Everton scoring drought.

The Australian international netted on December 2010 in the 2-1 win at Manchester City but has not hit the back of the net for his club since.

However, Cahill feels that he is still contributing to the team and will continue to work as hard as ever even if the goals aren't going in.

"What do you do?" he told the Daily Mirror. "Do you stop playing football, do you stop going on the pitch? If I'm not the one scoring then hopefully someone else is to make sure we win.

"It's the best game in the world and something that I love and the fans know that I give everything.

"I'm blessed playing in one of the biggest stages in the world and if I wasn't consistent and not playing well, it would be even harder, but I feel fantastic.

"As long as I'm contributing, I don't always have to be the one that scores. If I'm setting people up and making that one extra run or tackle, it might make a difference."
