Everton's Neville intent on inflicting defeat on QPR

Everton captain Phil Neville is looking to exact revenge on QPR this weekend.

The Toffees were beaten 1-0 by the Premier League newcomers in their first outing of the season and Neville is aware it was a poor performance which he hopes to make amends for at Loftus Road on Saturday.

"It was a disastrous start to the season and we make no bones about it," he told the club's official website.

"But I think we're a different team now. I also think they're a different team - they've got a different management and different players.

"They are obviously down near the bottom and we're pushing into the top half of the table now. We've just got to make sure we recover well from the international break and from not having a game last Saturday so that we hit the ground running.

"And we'll need to do that because QPR have got talented players, good attacking players, and we're going to have to play well to get a result."
