DAVID Moyes reckons Everton are down at the bottom of the Premier League because they deserve to be.[LNB]The Goodison Park boss will have no truck with suggestions the Toffees are too good to be 15th in the table and two points off the relegation zone.[LNB]Moyes takes his injury-ravaged side to Sunderland on Boxing Day and then has a home clash with Burnley on Monday as Everton search for the points to haul themselves away from the drop zone.[LNB]Moyes, who is unlikely to have much room for changes to his side due to the continued injury problems, said: "By this time, the league has taken shape and we have an idea of where clubs will be. "You will get someone making a push at the top, and someone down at the bottom.[LNB]"We have to make sure that is us because we are too near the trap-door for comfort at the moment. "Our form has improved, the points tally has not. But draws against Spurs and Chelsea have certainly lifted the confidence, and we played well enough to have beaten Birmingham who are on a good run at the moment.[LNB]"I am frustrated with the results of late, but performances have improved. We just need to get three points to go with better displays, though.[LNB]"Things can change very quickly over Christmas, with a couple of games in quick succession, and we want to make that happen.[LNB]"But I don't want anyone saying we should not be where we are. The league is forming now, you can see the various levels.[LNB]"We cannot say the current position is not a true reflection on our season because it is a true reflection."
