Victor Anichebe has told Everton fans the players know they've not been at their best season.

The striker told evertonfc.com: "I can understand why everyone was frustrated but we need the fans to stick with us and hopefully we will get through this little patch.

"Tottenham are doing well at the moment, so we know it is going to be a good game.

"We haven't played to our best and a number of things have built up - injuries and international call-ups - to take a toll. But we'll get back to our best soon."
