Roberto states his belief in the Blues

"With any successful team it's down to that first moment of success and glory, that first trophy.

“It happened with Manchester City and even Manchester United with Alex Ferguson or Barcelona with Pep Guardiola. You get that key moment and there's nothing better than a moment of success.

“I believe 100 per cent this club is equipped to win the FA Cup and 100 per cent Everton should be a club fighting for trophies. You look at the history, the heritage and the fans.

“We have to find a formula where we know how to win trophies rather than hoping, and there is a big difference. But the club this season has shown they are ready to compete against anyone and slowly we are fighting to fulfil our potential — and our potential is huge.

“Setbacks in the last month are shaping us into a group of players that don't accept defeat and are ready to face adversity. You have to be strong-minded and stubborn to be good in the style we want to impose.

“The last few games have shown there is an inner-strength and belief about what we are doing. I do feel we are ready now and it's what is ahead that excites me.

“The mental strength is down to the experienced players we've got. It's very important you get good leaders. Then you have the bravery and — in a good way — the naivety of the younger players and that's a special combination.

“And then you need that little bit of luck to bring the success that opens a good period and that is what we have to fight for.”
