It's the day I never want to arrive

IT is all eyes on Southampton now, and it is a day I don't really want to come.

I know a better future should await at Everton Stadium but it is going to be so hard to leave the Old Lady.

Having had the privilege of playing for Everton I am lucky enough to be part of the celebrations on the day and it will be emotional.

Sunday will be a massive day and the atmosphere will be special. I have been going there since I was four or five years old and I am both nervous and excited.

There is still a game taking place amid all of the fun of the Goodison Park farewell and I hope the players do not get lost in the occasion.

I remember games for Manchester City and PSV Eindhoven when the opposition were marking special events, their focus was elsewhere and we were able to take advantage. I do not want Southampton to be able to do that.
