Everton Players - Last 15 Years

[Evertonized]

Lee Carsley has said Tim Cahill won't be a legend due to the fact Everton never won anything whilst in the team. http://www.talksport.co.uk/radio/drivetime/120724/carsley-cahill-wont-go-down-everton-legend-177294?

So excluding players who won the FA Cup in 1995 such as Ferguson, Unsworth etc - will any others in the last say 15 years be known as "LEGENDS" even if we don't win anything with them in the side?

And if so, who in your opinion will be known as legends in the current squad?

 

[chicoazul]

None of them. That word's reserved for the greats like Dean, Ball, Southall, sober Kendall and that.

Correct.

Young, Ratcliffe, Labone............

Cahill, Ferguson etc... rate as cult heroes.

 

[Midnitemike]

Surely McFadden is a legend? No?

 

[Brennan]

So the only people who are legends are the ones who win things ?

Bollocks to that.

 

[paulbefc]

Depends how you define it, really. The word has lost its real meaning over time imo.

Tim Cahill is a Legend, to me, thats all I care about.

 

[mawders]

Carsley is taking things a bit far. By that logic, Matt Le Tissier wouldn't be a Saints legend and Steve Bull a Wolves legend

Cahill in my mind has been central the recover under the Moyes era, is absolutely dyed-in-the-wool blue, and is a legend

 

[Ruairi77]

I would imagine that the last Everton legend that fans unanimously agree on is Southall

 

[Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian]

Surprised that Carsley has said that tbh. as he's held in very high regard himself by a lot of our supporters.

Dave Watson for me.

Aye but they're sh*t clubs who don't really win much (any more in the case of Wolves) so it's all relative mate.

 

[ToffeeDan]

So (say) Tony Hibbert is a leg-end with his Youth Cup winner's medal - so are Jevons, Cadermarteri? whereas Timmy & Mikel aren't?

So are we, and neither do we. One trophy in 25 years.
