    本赛季的埃弗顿队同上个赛季风风火火的表现可谓是天壤之别。自开赛以来的12场比赛中，埃弗顿队只有屈指可数的4个球进帐，是目前所有英超球队中的最低进球纪录，其成绩也是可想而知。由于在12场比赛中仅获胜3场，目前的埃弗顿队已经完全陷入了降级区。

    据路透社24日报道，为了帮助球队尽快摆脱目前所处的尴尬处境，主教练莫耶斯在24日举行的俱乐部年终大会上透露了一些新的举措。他说：“我们队的进球记录是最差的，我知道球队的问题出在哪里。如果可能的话，我希望能在一月份在这方面给球队做些补充和加强。”

    此外，由于已经对现在顶替马丁出任球队门将的里查德·赖特失去了信任，莫耶斯还希望在冬季转会期内为球队再签下一名门将。莫耶斯表示：“赖特打了一些比赛，但他并没有表现出应有的水准。我需要在赛季结束前再引进一名门将。”

    作为埃弗顿队的主教练，莫耶斯坦言对球队本赛季的急剧滑坡感到震惊。上个赛季埃弗顿队在莫耶斯的带领下取得了联赛第4名的好成绩，而如今不仅在冠军联赛资格赛中早早被淘汰，就连欧洲联盟杯赛的资格也没有获得，在联赛中的成绩也是一直没有起色。对此莫耶斯心急如焚。他说：“我希望俱乐部拥有一支令人骄傲的球队，但现在这样的话我却说不出口。没有人比我对球队的现状要更感到失望和震惊了。”

    虽然对球队目前糟糕的战绩感到难以理解，但莫耶斯依旧对埃弗顿队充满了信心：“目前球队正处在一个十分困难的时期，但放眼未来，从大处来看，我们前进的方向是正确的。”

    Everton manager David Moyes says he will look to sign a striker in the January transfer window.

    Everton are the Premier League's lowest scorers with four goals this season, a figure that has left them in the relegation zone with three wins in 12 games.

    "We have the worst scoring record in the Premier League so we know where the problems are," Moyes told the club's annual general meeting on Thursday.

    "That's the area I feel we need to strengthen in January if possible."

    Moyes added he may look to sign a new goalkeeper as well, as he is losing faith in Nigel Martyn's back-up Richard Wright.

    "Richard Wright has played and has not done as well as he should have," Moyes added.

    "I may need to look for another goalkeeper before the end of the season."

    Moyes admitted he has been shocked by the demise of his team this season. They finished fourth last season but were knocked out of the Champions League in the qualifying stages and failed to make the UEFA Cup group stage.

    "I want this club to have a team to be proud off and I can't stand here today and say that we have," he added.

    "There is nobody more disappointed or surprised about where we are than me.

    "Times are hard at the moment and it doesn't look particularly good, but if you look at the bigger picture I feel we are going in the right direction."

    Chairman Bill Kenwright said he was still looking for new investors but the interest from Fortress Sports Fund and their leader Chris Samuelson has now come to an end.

    "He had the credentials and the board believed he could come up with a deal that would benefit Everton. He couldn't come up with the goods," Kenwright said.

    Everton announced a rise in turnover for the year ending May 31, 2005 of 34 percent from 44.7 million pounds ($77.07 million) to 60 million pounds, a figure that is the best in the club's 127-year history.

    Profits before player trading were up to 0.1 million pounds compared with a deficit of 17 million pounds.

    Striker Wayne Rooney's sale to Manchester United brought a transfer profit of 23.4 million pounds but the club have since spent 23.6 million pounds on new signings.
