Cahill determined to clinch silverware with Everton

Everton midfielder Tim Cahill is determined to win silverware with the club this season.

The Toffees came agonisingly close to taking out the FA Cup last season but were beaten at the last hurdle by Chelsea and this term are ready to challenge for a spot in the Champions League.

"I'm very ambitious in the fact that I want to play in the Champions League and 29 years old in football terms is very young," Cahill said.

"Last year we were unsuccessful but we were so close yet so far away.

"I need to work hard and try and push Everton as far as we can and to try and win some trophies."

Everton kick off their Premier League campaign against Arsenal at Goodison Park on Saturday August 15.
