Everton manager David Moyes has defended his decision to rest a number of players against Liverpool on Tuesday.
The Toffees manager was criticised for making six changes to the side that defeated Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 last weekend, which some have suggested led to Everton's 3-0 loss in the Merseyside derby.
"We have got a lot of players here and a good squad when they are fit," said Moyes. "We chose to use them and give a few of them a game.
"We want them all to be fit and ready for the run-in, and obviously for the game [against Sunderland] tomorrow."
When asked if he had any regrets over the selection, Moyes replied: "None whatsoever."
Everton take on Sunderland in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup tomorrow.
