Everton were drawn away to arch-rivals Liverpool in the third round of the FA Cup draw on Monday night, and Toffees fans aren’t optimistic ahead of the January tie.

Sam Allardyce’s men certainly won’t relish coming up against Jurgen Klopp’s side, who boast the Premier League’s top goalscorer in Mohamed Salah as well as other attacking options like Sadio Mane, Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino, away from home.
Everton supporters were quick to have their say on the dreaded draw via social media, and while one said “get on to Bournemouth in January and see if Gosling wants a transfer” after he scored the winner against the Reds in the same competition in 2009, another simply said “want to jump in the Mersey”.
