Marouane Fellaini is hoping this can be Everton’s year in The FA Cup.

The Blues reached the Semi-Final last season, only to suffer a heart-breaking defeat at Wembley against arch rivals Liverpool.

And there are still lingering memories of their loss to Chelsea in 2009’s Final, but Fellaini’s first focus is Saturday’s Sixth Round clash with Wigan Athletic.

The Belgian midfielder told FATV: "Everybody wants to go to Wembley, but the most important thing is Saturday's game.

"It's a big game so first we need to win the game on Saturday and then we will see.

"It's hard because, you're so close to The Final.

"Wigan is a difficult team to play against, so we will see on Saturday.

"But we play at home and have the supporters with us, so we have a big chance.”
