Now, now. That's Aly's story to share and only if he wants to, he has our number.

I imagine there were many other reasons behind it, and the Liverpool pettiness was a nice bonus.

The fixture list is jam-packed. Ludicrously, Liverpool play five Premier League matches before March.

And this is when the title will be won or lost.

Currently, his first XI is entirely fit - barring Trent Alexander-Arnold, who is touch and go for the Merseyside derby on Wednesday.

This time last year, Jurgen Klopp was battling a mountain of injuries that eventually became unsustainable and led to the season collapsing.

But under Arne Slot, Liverpool are more available and have actually run less than any other side in the division.

And while the squad players let themselves down at Plymouth, Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch and Mo Salah stayed on Merseyside and got a much-needed rest.

If Liverpool beat Everton, it will have been the right decision.

So many questions, Aly. But I guess I should start with congrats on your donation, however long ago it was.

Andy Jones: Morning Phil. Do you think that Everton will need to strengthen all over the pitch in the summer or are there a few areas that urgently need strengthening instead of the whole pitch?

Hi Andy. I actually do think they need to strengthen in all areas – apart from goalkeeper where they have Jordan Pickford – but one stands out in particular.

Everton have to find someone who scores goals. It is as simple as that.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has been too injury prone and his contract is up at the end of the season, while Beto has been unconvincing.

I think it will be a really interesting summer at Everton as they try to reshape what is an average squad ahead of the move to a new stadium under new owners, who will want to use the summer market to show their ambitions and use some financial muscle.

Oh these are all so petty, we love them so much!

Now, just a reminder of what's coming up... BBC Sport's Phil McNulty is answering your questions, so keep them coming in. We've also got an Everton press conference from 13:30 GMT.

Earlier, Arne Slot spoke to the media and said Joe Gomez is out of the Merseyside derby but Trent Alexander-Arnold could play.

Wednesday's match will be David Moyes' 43rd time coming up against Liverpool as a manager - and it's fair to say that his record isn't brilliant.

Of the previous 42, he was won just six, drawn 10 and lost 26.

The better news for Everton is that all of those victories have come in home matches and four of them were in Moyes' first stint as the Blues' boss.

Martin: Morning Phil. What did you make of the VAR-less FA Cup this weekend? Whilst there were some human errors that VAR would have corrected (Maguire offside for United's winner for example), was it better having all decisions made in the stadium and instantly?

Hi Martin. You may know I have become disaffected by VAR, but clearly it would have ruled out Harry Maguire’s goal. I actually did not think you needed VAR for that. It was a really poor mistake by the official.

It would also have given us a definitive ruling on whether Joe Willock’s shot had crossed the line in Newcastle United’s win at Birmingham City. I must confess I was not convinced at all that it had.

So, swings and roundabouts, but those two decisions did actually make a case for VAR against those who have become sceptical about it – like me!

Haha thanks Tom - a regular texter.

And I've finally searched where Wells is. Not too far from the M5 you know. This is some serious pettiness.

Matt, Dubai: Which was the bigger cup upset at the weekend, Phil - Liverpool losing to Plymouth or Rangers getting beaten by Queen’s Park?

Morning, Matt. I’m going to call it a dead heat – but if pushed, Queen’s Park winning at Ibrox might just edge it because Plymouth had fantastic home support against virtually a second string team.

What is beyond dispute is that they were magnificent results for both Plymouth and Queen’s Park, a real source of pride and joy.

I was lucky enough to be at Home Park and came away thinking that if someone can get it right at that club it could really take off. The potential there is huge. Smart stadium, a fantastic fanbase and a big catchment area. Maybe Miron Muslic can be that man.

THIS.

An absolutely brilliant idea Chris. You all message in your petty actions of "disrespect", please.

Meanwhile, Phil McNulty has been answering more of your questions...

Like Looney Tunes, Sean?

Pep Guardiola painting fake trapdoors into the Etihad in order to stop Vinicius Junior...

Change in the live text commentary box. After keeping you lot entertained for three hours Sam's off to make himself a cuppa.

Which means it's me, Joe, in charge. Sorry.

I'm loving this badge walking over debate by the way. You wouldn't catch me treading on an ITV Sport logo, just saying.
