Louis Saha 300[LNB]LOUIS SAHA insists he is ready to become the King of Goodison again - after finally putting the pain of 11 goal-less months behind him.The Everton striker is hoping the 'worst year' of his career is now over.[LNB]* FOLLOW us on Twitter for all the latest EFC news here[LNB]'UNEASY is the head that wears the crown,' wrote Shakespeare in Henry IV, and Goodison's own King Louis would agree after 11 demoralising months when scoring seemed like a distant memory.[LNB]The striker had endured almost a year without scoring in the Premier League before finally ending his drought in spectacular fashion against Spurs on Wednesday.[LNB]At times Saha, who is so admired by his team-mates for that regal air and eye-poppingly flawless training ground technique, had simply looked lost.[LNB] Along with Yakubu and Jermaine Beckford, the Frenchman's form has been the subject of supporters, and occasionally his manager's, ire.[LNB]But David Moyes has remained insistent about the 32-year-old's impressive attitude and work-rate throughout that leanest of lean spells, and now the man himself simply hopes that goal - and stellar all-round performance in Wednesday's 2-1 victory, will be the beginning of brighter days.[LNB]'It's been really, really hard for me,' he says after training at Everton's Finch farm complex.[LNB]'I've found it tough to understand why that when I've tried my hardest, I've stopped doing things instinctively and what normally comes naturally to me.[LNB]'I have been looking for form, so trying too hard and I haven't had the best luck. But I'm confident in my ability, and I've been waiting for my time. It happened against Spurs, and hopefully it will carry on coming now.[LNB]'It has been a long time since I felt like I was producing some result for the team so I was very happy. The main thing was getting the three points though, so it was huge.'
