Everton midfielder Marouane Fellaini has his sights set on an appearance in the FA Cup final in his first season in England.

The 21-year-old Belgium international has impressed since moving to England from Standard Liege and would like to help the Toffees reach a Wembley showpiece in the coming months.

He told the club's official website: "It would be fantastic to get to the final in my first season, but we're not there yet. We can't talk about victory.

"We have to concentrate on doing the right things on Sunday (against Middlesbrough) and make sure that happens.

"It's a very important game for us. The important thing is that we are going to be at home and we're going to do all we can to get that victory, but being at home is decisive.

"First of all we started out with a victory against a lower division side. Then we had the two games against Liverpool and got through.

"The game against Aston Villa was a great occasion and now we have a game against Middlesbrough.

"We've got to be there on form, give 100 per cent and above all, get through."
