Everton winger Dwight McNeil says they must regroup after defeat at Manchester United on Saturday.

McNeil concedes "confidence is low" amongst the strikers.

Confidence is low in the final part [of the pitch]," McNeil told evertontv. We had a lot of chances but didn't score a goal. We get a lot of chances but we just aren't getting the final bit right - scoring goals. That's hurting us at the minute and we aren't picking points up because we can't find the back of the net.

We try and work on it every day. We getting there in the games, those final moments, I had a few chances and should have scored definitely one I think. I put a lot of pressure on myself but we had other chances and we didn't take them and we got punished."

He added: We have three weeks until we play again. We have to evaluate as a team, the main thing is we need to all stay together and keep believing because we are in that position again like last season.

But we have experience in the group, we just have to try and score goals. That's a big thing, but more importantly, win games. We need to make sure we do that after the international break."
