Martinez warns Arsenal that Everton are up for top four clinker

Everton boss Roberto Martinez says they're up for their top four clash with Arsenal this weekend.

The Toffees host the Gunners on Sunday and Martinez insists his side can compete with the big money clubs at the summit.

"To get three points at Old Trafford, the performances at the Emirates and Stamford Bridge, those are signs that we are in position to compete against these sort of sides," the Spanish coach said.

"It would be very easy for us to say our aim is to stay in the division. Then I am sure we would have an easy ride.

"But I think we need to push ourselves. I do feel that as a club we should be in the Champions League. Is that realistic? We need to earn that on the pitch. And we have shown on the pitch we can compete with the top teams."
