Baines admits Everton bitterness after Cup defeat

Everton fullback Leighton Baines admits there's a lot of bitterness over their 4-1 FA Cup defeat at Arsenal.

Baines captained the side with Phil Jagielka still out injured.

The England defender said on evertontv: "We are bitterly disappointed with the outcome because we came here with a positive frame of mind looking to win the game.

"We have got a couple of home games now (against Cardiff and Swansea) that we know we are capable of winning and know we probably must win in terms of having a push for the back end of the season with just the league to focus on.

"We want to finish strongly and those two games are hopefully the platform which we can build on."
