Everton midfielder Donny van de Beek has had a pop at parent club Manchester United.
Van de Beek was unable to play regularly at Old Trafford after arriving from Ajax in the summer of 2020, and was allowed to leave temporarily to gain more minutes.
He was identified by boss Frank Lampard as a key target in the winter window and, after enjoying a good spell since penning his deal, is now keen to kick on.
Asked if he has a point to prove, Van de Beek told the club programme: "Yes, but it is also for everyone around me.
"If I play well, I do it for them, for my girlfriend and for my family and friends.
"I want to give joy to those people. And to the fans. Then I want to do it for myself. Of course, sometimes I am disappointed and frustrated.
"But I always try to stay positive and believe there will be a day it will change.
"I can only change it with hard work, I want to show that some people are wrong and I still have the quality to play - I always aim to do this."
