“The draws always come out so differently and you just need to hang in there, and stay in round by round. What happens at the end is the icing and what we all want, so sure we visualise it, but the biggest thing is getting past Fulham.

“It’s so hard to predict. Get through this round, then we can see what happens.

“It was magical at Wembley. Beating Man United in the semi-final, then Louis scoring so early on in the final – it’s a magical time.”

Meanwhile, Diniyar Bilyaletdinov admits he never truly adapted to playing in England as he prepares to leave Everton.

Bilyaletdinov is on the verge of returning to Russia with the finishing touches being applied to a £5million move to Spartak Moscow.

And the winger, who arrived at Goodison for £9m from Lokomotiv Moscow in August 2009, said he prefers Spartak's “attacking, entertaining football” and said: “That’s exactly what Everton have lacked recently. The team also have problems creating chances and converting them.

“A whole load of circumstances were against me. It's not that easy to be a foreign player in England, you have to meet certain requirements. Local players are forgiven certain things, but foreigners aren't."

Tickets are still available for tomorrow’s FA Cup tie with Fulham, which kicks off at 8pm. Prices start from £25 for adults while all junior tickets are only £5.

Everton are urging supporters to purchase their tickets early to avoid long queues at the box office and turnstiles tomorrow.
