Liverpool and Everton will convey the town to a halt as we compete within the closing Merseyside derby at Goodison Park and Curtis Jones has his eyes set on bragging rights.
Talking with liverpoolfc.com, the Scouser previewed the match: “This sport is one the place you’ve received pals who’re Everton followers, you’ve received household and stuff. It’s at all times seen as a battle of the town.
“I at all times wish to win. It’s an enormous sport. I’m not going to consider that it’s the final one there and issues like that – it’s with them and their followers and their historical past there. It doesn’t actually have an effect on me.
“However any time that I play a sport, I at all times wish to win – and particularly round these, I wish to win much more. I’d like to come back away with three factors and a superb sport.”
It’s clear that our No.17 is aware of precisely how a lot this fixture means, even when he has solely performed in a surprisingly low simply three Merseyside derbies.
Curtis Jones is about to play his fourth sport in opposition to Everton
After scoring in his first one at Anfield, the 23-year-old will probably be hoping so as to add a objective in his closing one at Goodison Park to this listing of private accolades.
Nonetheless, identical to with Arne Slot’s feedback, it’s full deal with enjoying the sport and never the event which is strictly what you wish to hear from the top coach and his gamers.
It’s our job as supporters to get carried away with the emotion and we hope that every one these on the grass (in a pink shirt) can hold their cool and play in an expert method.
All which means it could be fairly the let down if the amber climate warning in place throughout Merseyside for this weekend would imply the sport by no means even went forward!
For now although, it’s all ideas on getting three factors as soon as once more.
