Everton Loanee, Andre Gomes is excited and patient to wait until the summer to decide if he wants to join permanently from Barcelona.

The 25-year-old midfielder has made 22 Premier League appearances for Everton this season and has become the fans and head coach Marco Silva favourite but is due to return to Barca at the end of the campaign.

Gomes believes Everton need to find consistency this season but admits the side have found it difficult to build confidence after poor results when they have dropped points.

The Premier League is hard,” he added. “Sometimes you feel you are in control and in fact, you’re not.

“Often small details change games and that has happened a few times this year, when you come from a defeat like that (Newcastle) it’s difficult to build confidence again.

“But Chelsea will be a good challenge to build that confidence back up again.”

The former Valencia man is loving playing in the Premier League and admits it is where he has wanted to play for most of his life.

According to him, he said: “Since I was a kid, I was watching games from the Premier League, I wanted to play here and have that experience; I am really happy here and the fans have been with me since day one.”

Gomes is also looking for the Everton fans to create a similar atmosphere as they did in the Merseyside derby when they meet Chelsea in the Super Sunday game this weekend.

“It’s been a while since we have won against the top six and we have a good opportunity this weekend, 100 per cent,” he added.

He further said that the atmosphere in the derby helped them and they will have to invite the fans to create that atmosphere because it was really special for them.
