Everton hero Sylvain Distin enjoyed seeing the impact of the fans in their survival battle last season.
Everton's supporters helped roar the team to Premier League safety both inside and outside the ground in the latter stages of last season and Distin, who played for Everton between 2009-15, admits it was incredible to witness.
He told the Official Everton Podcast: “I hope that they (the fans) are going to realise the power they have got, positively and negatively. When things go wrong and you've got the pressure of the fans but the wrong type of pressure, it's a tough one and some players will elevate their games but some will react negatively and start hiding as well.
“I'm pretty sure that now they realise if they all push behind and all be fantastic as they've done, they can change a lot.
"It's a tough moment because that's when Everton were at the bottom but if Everton is at the top and they pushed the same way, I hope they realise what Everton could achieve as well because it's an amazing strength, it was fantastic to see."
