Leon Osman is urging Manchester United targets Marouane Fellaini and Leighton Baines to stay with Everton.
Fellaini and Baines played 90 minutes in Saturday's goalless draw with Cardiff, and Blues boss Roberto Martinez had no hesitation in including them despite reports United are set to launch a fresh bid to reunite the pair with former Everton manager David Moyes before Monday night's 11pm transfer deadline.
"As with any team, no player is bigger than the club. If someone goes, you move on, you adapt, you find new ways of playing without those players," said midfielder Osman.
"You will end up getting new players in who will make you stronger in different areas. Whatever happens come Monday night or Tuesday morning, we will move on and make ourselves strong.
"I will just turn the telly off on transfer deadline day and hope they're still here come Monday night."
