NIGHTMARE

-

IT WOULD be our worst nightmare and our fans’ worst nightmare for Liverpool to win the title on the first game back.

We have to make sure we are ready and can beat them no matter what.

It would take Manchester City to lose to Arsenal first, but even if that doesn’t happen we have to do everything we can to win that game. The rivalry is huge.

Our crowd is so important and they play a massive part in helping the team, but it’s something that won’t affect the way we play too much.

At Goodison, the way we start a game can be really important.

If you put a tackle in early doors, or get an attack going, they get behind you and it gives you an extra five per cent.

But we will have to create that for ourselves.

It will be strange not having fans but it will be the same for everyone. Once you are actually playing you don’t focus on the fans, you focus on the pitch.

Playing a lot of games in a short space of time will be a challenge but I think it’s something I’ll relish.

It will feel like being back in the Championsh­ip again where you play SaturdayTu­esday-Saturday-Tuesday.

During that time you don’t actually do much on the training pitch and you just play games, but that’s the best part and I can’t wait to get back.
