Everton's Osman preparing for FA Cup derby - 'It will be crazy'

Everton midfielder Leon Osman is expecting the next couple of weeks to be a crazy time in the area.

The Toffees take on Merseyside rivals Liverpool in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley Stadium on April 14 and Osman is preparing for some passion to pour out from fans of both sides in the build-up.

"It's a big game. It has been 20-odd years since we've played each other at Wembley, so it will be pleasing to be a part of one of those games," he told the Liverpool Post.

"It'll be a crazy place to live. It's only a few weeks, so it's a quick turnaround.

"It will be crazy with people wanting tickets left, right and centre, so that will be fun and games over the next few weeks."
