The Everton midfielder Marouane Fellaini returns to the Everton team after his midweek suspension, and says that his team “simply have to win” against Liverpool on Sunday, or he will have to shut his windows so that he can’t hear the liverpool fans celebrating!

“We simply have to win. If we lose I would hear the other fans celebrating and I don’t want to have to shut my window. I want to win,” he said. “You can’t predict these games and all you know is that it will be a great occasion.

“What makes it such an entertaining game is the absolute desire from both teams and it will be a brilliant atmosphere. I can’t wait. You can’t really say that both teams are going into it playing equally as badly.

“Everton’s run of results has been worse, so we cannot afford to be complacent in any way. I am ready to get going again after missing Hull. Sunday is the time to put it right.”

But David Moyes thinks his team desperately need to improve or they could end up in the relegation zone, and says that have to up their performance in the big derby on Sunday.

“We have to talk about it.” he said. “There is no point in hiding and burying our heads in the sand. If we don’t start to play better we will be [n relegation trouble. We are not playing well enough to be anywhere else.

“You can’t hide the fact if you keep losing games you will be relegated. You have to stop it and get in a position when that will happen.”

“It is the sort of game we are privileged to be involved in,” he added. “It is an opportunity to try to get a win against our local rivals but if you said to me would I take two defeats against Liverpool and finish in a European spot, of course I would. I’m trying to focus as much on Everton and not to look at Liverpool.”

Sunday is looking more and more interesting every minute!
