(Reuters) - Everton defender Leighton Baines says caretaker boss David Unsworth has steadied the ship in the wake of Ronald Koeman's sacking and the players are determined to repay him by turning their season around.

Unsworth, who stepped up from the under-23 side last month to take temporary charge, oversaw three away defeats in the Premier League before Sunday's 3-2 comeback victory over Watford at Goodison Park.
