Everton boss David Moyes knows his strike force of Yakubu and Louis Saha will not have too many more 'ducks' this season.

After the 1-0 loss to Wigan, Moyes said that although there were limited chances throughout the match, the forward duo were capable of much better.

"There were a couple of opportunities tonight, Yak had a chance early on and there was some good play from them in the early part of the game I thought," Moyes told Setanta Sports.

"The longer it went on it dwindled away a little bit, but I think there's goals there and I think they're both very good players.

"We've played better than that," he conceded. "It was quite tight but I knew it would be a tough game.

"Hopefully we can pick up. We've played well recently prior to coming here and had been on a decent run, so hopefully we can pick up again."
