Former Manchester United striker Louis Saha is convinced his career is back on track after his move to Everton.

The French striker scored his first goal for his new boss David Moyes, and his first since February, in the 1-0 victory over Fulham on Saturday to ensure Everton's first home win of the season.

"From my point of view, after so many injury problems at Manchester United, it is really good," said Saha.

"It was hard to go through all that, but I am confident now and I know I picked the right club to come to because everyone is helping me to settle in and to enjoy my football again.

"I am really, really enjoying myself now and everything is starting to go well again."

The perfectly-timed header in the closing minutes from Leon Osman's cross was the one flash of genuine quality in a dismal match that Fulham did not deserve to lose.

And Saha certainly enjoyed playing against another of his former Premier League clubs, having left Fulham for Old Trafford for £12.8million in January 2004.

His Everton winner was his fourth in seven appearances against Fulham since he departed Craven Cottage.

He said: "That first goal in an Everton shirt has given me a real boost, as well as the team.

"That is my main concern, to achieve something for the team and to claim three points for the first time this season at home.

"There are no mixed emotions because it was against Fulham, one of my former clubs. It is just another game.

"It is true that it is a bit special when I play against Fulham, I have good memories of my time there. But now I can only have thoughts for Everton.

"I feel I am beginning to get to grips with my new club, it has taken me a little longer than I had hoped but now I have got off the mark with the winner, I hope there will be many more to come.

"We needed the win, particularly because we hadn't started the season well.

"It is a huge boost that our new players, me included, are beginning to do well. We are all performing better. Now we have been able to climb into the top half."
