"Michael has done a great job since taking over. The visit of Manchester United is always a big occasion and during my tenure here at Everton we enjoyed some big nights and memorable games against some incredible United teams managed by Sir Alex Ferguson. We always felt that Goodison usually rose to the challenge and was an enormous help to us going into any game, but none more so than in an evening games against United."
"I've always believed your home ground is where you get most of your points and it's where we hope to show that in the remaining home games. You can help us in that. Players react to your support and in difficult moments they need your backing. We want the players to feel comfortable here and feel supported. Hopefully that will be the case tonight and we will see an upturn in the final months of the season here."
