XABI'S DERBY MISSION

Xabi Alonso will put his friendship with Everton's Mikel Arteta on hold as the pair prepare to meet in tonight's Merseyside derby.
Both players have enjoyed a long standing friendship having started their careers at Basque Club Real Sociedad.

Alonso has declared himself fit to line up against the Blues having missed last weekend's goalless draw at Stoke City through injury, and can't wait to play against his friend from across Stanley Park.

"For me to play against Mikel Arteta is special," he said.

"We were in the same Spanish club and we were always friends, but this Monday we are rivals. My mission is to make him feel uncomfortable on the pitch.

"Everton always play to their maximum against us. That is the real danger for Monday but we are optimistic.

"The derby always increases the work rate of any player. The games are always full of emotion and with an enormous atmosphere, it is an incredible match.

"We are favourites but in this match anything can happen. It is key to dominate the ball from the first moment and impose our rhythm at Anfield."

Liverpool know that victory will see them return to the top of the Barclays Premier League having been knocked off by Manchester United at the weekend.

But the Reds' Spanish midfielder is keen to focus on what the Reds can achieve rather than worry about their rivals.

"The squad only think about our club. We are not preoccupied by Manchester United," Alonso added.

"For us it is not an extra pressure to play in the derby after we know that United won. We must avoid the distractions of other clubs."

CARRA ON TONIGHT'S CRUCIAL DERBY


Jamie Carragher believes tonight's clash with in-form Everton is one of the most important Merseyside derbies in recent memory.
The Reds defender has featured in a number of top four encounters with David Moyes' side, and while Liverpool's sights are set a little higher this season, he insists the 209th derby could prove just as crucial in shaping both sides' destiny.

"It's just as important as ever," he said.

"We had one last season which was probably important for different reasons with us and Everton both going for the top four.

"We managed to win that 1-0 and I think this time Everton have still got that objective, whereas we're maybe looking to push on a little bit more than that.

"They didn't make the best of starts to this season but they've come through really strongly since then and they're probably the form team in the league at the moment.

"As I say, we're looking for bigger and better things than the top four this season and hopefully we can win our place back at the top of the league."

Everton have enjoyed an upturn in form since the Reds cruised to a 2-0 success at Goodison Park back in September.

Carragher admits he has been impressed by the Toffees' rise under David Moyes and feels they are the side most likely, if anyone, to gatecrash the top four.

"It's no surprise because Everton have been on the up over the last three or four seasons under David Moyes," he said.

"They are always the type of team that whenever you play them you always know that you are going to be in a game.

"I think, without being disrespectful to them in any way, they are probably a team that has punched above its weight as much as anyone in the league over the last four or five years.

"A lot of teams spend a bit more money than them but they are always there challenging the top four teams.

"A few teams have said they would and spent a few quid but I think Everton have been the team most likely to put a dent in that top four."

Liverpool can reclaim top spot in the league if they take three points against their neighbours and Carragher believes they must control the threat of Tim Cahill and Mikel Arteta if they to achieve their objective.

He said: "Cahill is probably the biggest threat because he's got a great record in Merseyside derbies for scoring goals.

"I think he's been playing up front lately so I'm not sure if he'll play there this time or if Anichebe will come into the side.

"But wherever he plays he is always going to be a danger because he is as good as anyone in the league for arriving late in the box and getting goals.

"So we'll have to keep an eye on him and obviously Arteta is a big threat from set pieces."

The Reds have been boosted by the return of Fernando Torres, Martin Skrtel, Fabio Aurelio, Xabi Alonso and Alvaro Arbeloa – all of whom have been absent for one reason or another of late - and the Bootle-born centre back believes it bodes well for the remainder of the season.

"We have got people coming back now which is obviously good," he said.

"We've had a few injuries over the last few weeks. The Christmas period is always busy and you always seem to pick up a few knocks, but now we're heading towards the home straight and you want everyone coming back firing.

"Torres is back, Arbeloa is training again, Aurelio and Skrtel have just played, Alonso missed the Stoke game but is ready to return, so it looks like we've got a lot of players coming back which is obviously a good thing at this stage of the season.

"Even though we drew at Stoke our away form has been superb. If anything, it's at home where we've had a couple of results that we would have liked to have been better.

"But there's no better way to respond than by getting a good result in the Merseyside derby.

"I do look forward to them. I love derby games even though they are a little bit stressful. We've got a good record in derbies so that should give us confidence.

"They are always on a knife edge and can go one way or another and the repercussions if it goes the wrong way don't bear thinking about, but they are great games to play in."

<--- Not hoping for another 0-0 draw again... phew..

READ RAFA AND STEVIE'S PRE-DERBY NOTES

Welcome to Anfield for what is the first of two Merseyside derbies inside seven days. This is an exciting time for the fans and also good for the city.

Let's hope it is our supporters who are the happiest this time next week.

We didn't play well at the Britannia Stadium in our last game, but credit to Stoke for working so hard and making it difficult for us.

We had a few opportunities to win the game towards the end, but Stoke also had one or two chances to score.

Both teams will say they could have won and therefore a draw was probably a fair result. If you cannot win, it is important not to lose.

Of course, we are disappointed that we didn't extend our lead at the top of the table but, as I say, a lot of credit must go to Stoke for that.

The Britannia Stadium is not an easy place to visit. Arsenal and Aston Villa have both lost there this season, plus it took a late goal against 10 men for Manchester United to win there.

Eighteen of Stoke's 21 points have been gained at the Britannia Stadium. We wanted to win but, taking all of this into account, a draw is not a disaster.

The Premier League is more competitive this season. Anyone can beat anyone. You can't go into any one game saying that you will win easily. That is simply not the case in this league.

But I can assure you that all of the players are fully focussed on trying to ensure we remain contenders at the top of the table for as long as possible.

We are in a very good position but we also know there is still a long way to go until the title is decided. As I often say, it's important to think just about one game at a time, keep our feet on the ground and keep working hard for the next three points.

As I write these notes, we know that Manchester United may have moved a point ahead of us at the top of the table.

That is not a concern at this stage of the season. The main thing is that we are challenging up and around the top positions.

If you had asked every Liverpool fan at the start of the season, did they want us to be in this position at this stage of the campaign, everyone would have said yes.

We knew it was going to be tough, but we have managed to maintain a good position and we want to stay there.

Winning tonight's derby will help us rediscover the momentum in the league that we gained in our wins over Bolton and Newcastle.

I've heard it said that because we've won the last three derbies and have home advantage tonight, that Liverpool are favourites.

I don't agree.

The derby is different to any other game and I don't believe there are ever favourites regardless of form or league position.

Everton have improved since our 2-0 win at Goodison Park in September. They are on a good run, with five wins from their last six games without conceding a goal.

The fact that they are playing so well in defence means we will have to be good in attack if we are to break them down.

But we know that when we play well we can beat anyone. That was the case at Goodison this season. We played well there and that was key to us winning.

We will have to be at our best to win again tonight.

Rafa Benitez




This is the first of a massive double header with Everton, but we're not looking any further ahead than these three points in the Premier League.

Merseyside derbies are always hugely important games.

When you haven't got the result you want from the match before the derby, like at Stoke last weekend, then it becomes more vital that you do yourself justice in this game.

We've had a few too many draws recently. In those games with the likes of Fulham and West Ham we should have won comfortably but didn't make the most of our chances.

You can say that we've dropped two points in these matches, and that's bitterly disappointing – especially at Anfield.

It was different for us against Stoke, however. They played well in front of their own fans at the Britannia Stadium and put us under a hell of a lot of pressure. That was probably a game where we could have got nothing, so maybe that was a point gained rather than two dropped.

We didn't play particularly well, and apart from the last 20 minutes or so we didn't create a lot going forward, but maybe last season we'd have come away from there with a defeat.

But with United going well in the league, we can't afford to have too many more days like last Saturday.

We're up against a team with one of the best away records in the Premier League today in Everton. They're a different side to the one we played at Goodison in September.

They've become really hard to beat and keep things tight on the road. More than that, they're taking their chances and picking up a lot of 1-0 wins away from home.

That's the size of the task we're facing tonight.

We're not sure how they're going to play it; they've got a few injuries and suspensions to cope with so maybe they'll be less attacking than we've seen from them here in the past.

If they keep things tight and try to strangle the space we like to play in then we'll have to respond. It's not a new experience for us. A lot of teams have played that way here this season.

Really, we don't care how they play.

For us the most important thing is that we defend well as a team, especially at set-pieces, and then take the game to them.

We're at home and the fans are going to be up for it. The home form is one of the aspects of the season that we can improve, and hopefully if we stick to our gameplan and play at the level we know we can reach, then we'll win.

I'm really looking forward to the game. I always relish the derby, but when it's an evening match under the lights it takes on an extra special edge.

Personally, I prefer playing in the night under the floodlights at Anfield. I can get a sleep in the afternoon and come into the game fresh and hungry to perform. I think a lot of the boys are the same.

We can't wait to get out there.

Steven Gerrard
