Kevin Mirallas has pinpointed the reason for Romelu Lukaku's return to form at Everton.

Mirallas, his closest friend in the Everton squad, is in no doubt as to why his form has picked up of late.

"I think there has been a little change in mentality for him," he told the Liverpool Echo. "In the last three games he has been strong, fast, powerful.

"There is a lot of pressure on him, of course, but I think you can see he has more confidence in recent games, and that can only make the team better."
