Everton goalkeeper Pickford: I'm building momentum

Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford feels he's returning to his best form.

Carlo Ancelotti's side fell behind early on against Burnley on Saturday thanks to a Robbie Brady strike, but Pickford pulled off some important saves for the rest of the match to keep the hosts from scoring any more.

He believes that he is starting to build momentum and he will continue to work hard in training to make sure he is improving all the time.

Pickford told evertonfc.com: "I've got to be ready for anything.

"When called upon, it's about being there for the lads, making those saves and being in that moment.

"I feel like I'm building momentum.

"I live off clean sheets. We want to win games by keeping clean sheets. I train hard with Kells [goalkeeping coach Alan Kelly] and the other keepers every day in training to aim to do that.

"I'll keep learning and keep trying to get better."
