Liverpool hero Jamie Carragher hopes Everton stay up today.

Everton need victory over Bournemouth to be sure of beating the drop.

Carragher wrote for the Telegraph: "As a boyhood blue and former Liverpool player, then, like now, I was asked if I want Everton to go down. My answer is a firm no.

"The reason has nothing to do with my childhood allegiances. My heart divorced itself from Goodison Park the moment I became established as a Liverpool player in the late 90s. I have spent the last 25 years seeing Everton as 'them' when it used to be 'us'.

"Everton fans do not deserve to be relegated into the Championship... I cannot separate myself from is the emotional turmoil my friends and family are suffering as a result of Everton's predicament. I know what they are going through, and it is hell.

"You can not underestimate how much football means to the people of my city, red and blue. I have friends who have not been able to sleep for weeks because they are worried about what relegation means for their lives, the club and the community."
