Kevin Mirallas feels responsible for Everton failing to score in their last two matches.

Victories over Tottenham at home and away to bottom club Crystal Palace would have taken Roberto Martinez’s side into second place in the Premier League.

But after back-to-back goalless draws and with the derby against LIverpool to come after the international break, Belgium forward Miralles said: “I have become an important part of the team and, in the last two games, we have had bad results because I played less well.

"This had on impact on the whole team.

"I have to stop this lack of consistency, even if opponents are now marking me more.

"The whole team plays through me so that I can make the difference and provide good passes to Romelu (Lukaku).”
