Everton forward Steven Naismith wants to finish the season strongly after the disappointing 3-2 defeat against Aston Villa.

The Merseysiders' six-match unbeaten run came to an end with the defeat and Naismith is looking for a big response from the team.

Naismith said: "They are three games that we should be able to win and that would boost our points tally.

"Hopefully we can creep up the league a few places and finish the season on a high.

"We should definitely be going into them believing we can win. That's what we have got to aim for."

The Toffees next play Sunderland at Goodison Park, then West Ham away before they end their campaign in front of the home support against Tottenham.
