John Sutton will not look for a move from Hearts in January despite struggling to get a game under manager Paulo Sergio.[LNB] Sutton netted 17 goals for Motherwell last season, prompting Jim Jefferies to sign him on a three-year deal, and he scored his first two goals for Hearts in a 3-0 win over Aberdeen on August 13.[LNB]But he has since made just three brief substitute appearances in the Scottish Premier League, with Sergio apparently unconvinced by the striker's ability to fit into his team.[LNB]However, Sutton is determined to force his way into the Portuguese manager's plans.[LNB]Sutton told BBC Scotland: "I thought I started the season pretty well and was very happy with the way I was playing and fitting in and managed to get a couple of goals.[LNB]"Since then things have not been so good.[LNB]"I'm trying my best. Hopefully over the course of my contract I will prove that I have been a good acquisition for the club."[LNB]When asked if he would look for a move, Sutton said: "It is not in my mind. I signed here for three years.[LNB]"In football there are lots of ups and downs.[LNB]"I feel I am a good player and can contribute here so I don't see any reason to move away.[LNB]"It's a fantastic club to play for. Obviously the football side hasn't been great recently but I'm certainly enjoying being here."[LNB]The former Dundee and St Mirren striker, who has not sought talks with Sergio over his future, added: "I'm just trying to do my best every day in training and that's all you can do."[LNB]Meanwhile, Sutton revealed this afternoon he had still not received wages that were due on Monday, although the club have stated all players will be paid by the end of the week.[LNB]"It's not arrived yet as far as I am aware," 27-year-old said.[LNB]"Hopefully it will get resolved fairly soon and not be as big an issue in the future. It's not a monumental concern."
