Everton’s Darron Gibson has warned Liverpool against complacency as they prepare for an FA Cup semi-final clash at Wembley.

The 24-year-old midfielder was in the starting XI as Everton cruised to a convincing 2-0 win in the quarter-final against Sunderland on Tuesday.

And despite falling to a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Liverpool two weeks ago, Gibson is confident that David Moyes’ men will prove a sterner test at Wembley.

“I was at the derby and it was disappointing,” Gibson told The Mail Online.

“Now we’ve got to forget about that.

“It will be a different prospect for them, as (we will have) probably our strongest side. We had worked all week on our game plan, pulled it off and played really well at Sunderland.

“The work we put (in) meant we knew exactly what everyone had to do and it paid off.

“We made chances too, which was the main thing and Niki [Jelavic] took his goal well.”

This will be Everton’s first appearance in the last four of the competition since 2009 when they were beaten 2-1 in the final by Chelsea.
