Liverpool fullback Andrew Robertson offered Everton little sympathy after victory on Sunday.
The win sent Everton into the bottom three.
Goalscorer Robertson was asked by BBC Sport if he'd miss the derby if Everton were relegated.
"The derby is a big game. For fans especially they always look to see when the derbies are," he said.
"The fans would miss it most. I'm a big believer that in a 38-game season you get what you deserve. Let's see.
"They're in a dogfight. Burnley won today. They're fighting.
"Everton need to win games to stay up. If they do we'll look forward to more derbies and if they don't they'll have to deal with it more than us and I'm sure they'll bounce back."
