Best Everton player you have watched in you lifetime

[Acrobat]

I’m going to answer this differently by naming best players I’ve seen in an Everton shirt in every position (including two subs) in a 4-4-2 formation, and it easy.

The entire starting 11 of the 1984-85 title winning team - but with Adrian Heath instead of Andy Gray. My two subs would be Kanchelskis and Beardsley.

 

[Gilbert..]

James is the most technically skilled player I’ve ever seen wear an Everton shirt.

McFadden?

 

[woomy]

Best - Southall

Most exciting - Kanchelskis

Cant argue with that. Beardsley and Heath for a special mention.

Sucks that we have had no great players for decades. Like really sucks.

 

[Gilbert..]

Most underrated - John Hurst ......

Thats an interesting twist to the subject.

I'll go a player who seemed to always get belters while playing for Everton.

Leon Osman.

Just to lighten the mood given all the negativity. I was born in the early 80’s so too young to have clear memories of the great sides sadly. However, the best player I can remember well was Peter Beardsley. What a magical player he was. So sad we had to sell him when we did at the age of 30 when he went on to have 3 to 4 great seasons at Newcastle after (it was actually heartbreaking to watch the below video of his time at the barcodes) Outside of Rooney who was too raw when he was with us at the beginning and whose legs had gone by the time we got him back we have not had anybody close to this level of natural talent at the club since. Would be interested to hear from others

Big Nev for me… epic epic epic goalkeeper the likes of which we would be lucky to have again.

Nev for goalkeeper, Sheedy out player and Latchford for when the match was boring and needed a sexual fantasy to get me through it.

You should get over to the fit birds thread...give us guys a treat.

Leon Osman.

He in his pomp would easily get a game in our present midfield ......

 

[TheSlumpDog]

for me it’s between Rodríguez, Lukaku or Baines

 

[tonyhorne]

Beardsley

 

[IV(AC)]

(Probably not Mo Besic) so I would have to hand the honour to Neville Southall - the best keeper in the world over several years
Honourable mentions to Trevor Steven, Duncan McKenzie, James Rodrigues, Andrei Kanchelskis and Peter Beardsley.

Lol, doubt it, unless Rooney's a member

 

[magicjuan]

Ball, the answer is always Alan Ball.

 

[Blue 1]

Southall.

You have to wonder if this thread will ever be updated?
