Everton FC have Carling Cup hunger says Steve Round
STEVE ROUND today backed the hunger in Everton's squad to carry them through their first Carling Cup test - as Ayegbeni Yakubu prepares to leap another major hurdle.
Though this competition does not tend to be a main concern for certain clubs, that is most definitely not the case for the Blues, who face Hull City at the KC Stadium tonight.
Having had their appetite whetted by an appearance in the FA Cup Final in May, Round says there is a fierce determination within the squad to now go on and win a trophy.
So while some will turn their noses up at the thought of playing extra games, Round would be delighted if Everton have fixture congestion due to Carling Cup commitments.
'This is high on our list of priorities, without a shadow of a doubt, and the players are really determined.' said David Moyes' assistant.
'It hurt to lose the FA Cup final but this is another opportunity to win a trophy and I know from past experience how good winning this competition is.
