(Reuters) - Everton's players will not let a 10-point deduction by the Premier League affect their performances, striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin said.

Everton became the first Premier League club to be deducted points for breaching financial sustainability rules last week. An independent commission imposed an immediate deduction that saw the Merseyside outfit drop to second-from-bottom from 14th.
