Naismith delighted seeing Everton striker Lukaku hit goals trail

Everton attacker Steven Naismith is happy seeing Romelu Lukaku back on the goal trail.

Lukaku grabbed a late equaliser for their FA Cup draw with West Ham United.

"He showed a bit more enthusiasm and a bit more confidence in his performance and he gets his reward with the goal," Naismith told evertonfc.com. "Obviously he is a big player for us and is somebody that contributed well last season.

"He hasn't hit those standards yet and he is the first person to say that he wants to hit those standards again. This is where you do need to be a big player and have the character to come up with the goods at the tough times

"For the likes of Rom, Stonesy and Ross this is a great experience, although a tough one, for the future."
