Nikica Jelavic is delighted to have scored 11 goals in his brief time with the club this season; he became the fastest player for a century to reach double figures for Everton.

?Everything has been perfect for me so far,? said the striker. ?Am I surprised at how well it has gone? A little bit. I expected maybe five or six goals and I said to myself that that would be great. But this is a huge, huge step and I'm delighted with 11 goals.

?The Premier League has been pretty much as I expected. It's difficult, it's hard and you have to fight in each game, 100%.

?English football, the Premier League, is the best football in the world. So I am happy I have settled so quickly.

?To score 11 goals is great but without the other lads I would have had no chance. We have a good squad and I'm very happy.

?Always when you come to a new club, you ask yourself about another league, another culture, everything like that. But I always believe in myself in situations like that.

?I settled quite quickly but my team-mates have helped me a lot. Without the other players, without the staff and everybody in the club, it would have been very difficult.

?They have accepted me like I have been here for many years.?
