Distin: Everton cannot dwell on injuries

Everton defender Sylvain Distin says their injury problems are no excuse.

The Toffees broke a disappointing run of form with victory at West Ham United on Sunday.

Centre-back Distin understands the situation is difficult, but backed the squad to battle through.

"We can complain, but it does not get us more points or get us anywhere," he said "We have got a lot of injuries, but there is nothing we can do about it.

"We will use the players we have got and hopefully we will get some of those players back.

"But we will do with what we have and we do have enough quality to play better than we have so far."
