Are you looking forward to that or is it a little bit strange to go back?
Very, very different.
I was so fortunate.
I'm from Manchester, played in Manchester derbies, played in Merseyside derbies.
And they are just extraordinary occasions.
So maybe over the years they have changed a little bit, not maybe as kind of fractious and aggressive as football has changed in those years as well.
But they're still...
Playing in them, it was so different than playing your bog-standard Premier League games.
You just felt differently.
Even though it's from Manchester, there's a huge amount of responsibility on the shoulders of Everton and Liverpool players, regardless of where you come from.
You can sense it.
You can feel it in the wee building up to the game.
You know how important this is.
I had some good days, had some bad days in Merseyside derbies as well.
But probably the one game that really stood out for me was the four-all draw in the FA Cup that we played out at Goodison Park.
We managed to beat Liverpool in the replay.
But that four-all draw was quite extraordinary.
But the atmosphere on derby day, it really is unique.
I'm sure Julian will probably agree with that as well.
Playing at Goodison, of course, that's where you'd want to be because you look at the two sides and clearly on their day, Liverpool are the better side.
