Moyes: Everton striker Saha must work harder to rediscover scoring touch

Everton boss David Moyes is urging Louis Saha to work harder and he will rediscover his form in front of goal. The 32-year-old striker has not found the back of the net in the Premier League since February and the Toffees have missed his goalscoring touch.

Yakubu Aiyegbeni and Jermaine Beckford have both notched one goal apiece in the league so far this season and boss Moyes is hoping for more.

"He has done okay," Moyes said. "He played well against Arsenal.

"He had one or two shots but never got the goal, but I thought he did okay.

"I think you make your own luck. They say the harder you work, the luckier you get, and I think there is part of that here.

"I also think you could do with the ball now and again dropping to you in the right place. But if you are in the right place often enough the ball does drop.

"The key is both things - work for your luck but if you get it, take it."
