I used to love Dave Thomas back in the day

Currently I think Our Tony Hibbert is my favourite. Not the best but thoroughly commited.
 
Difficult to decide on the players I haven't seen. I became a blue as a nipper when my Grandma told me about Dixie and the cup in 1933 (me arl fella is a RS who stopped going the match in the 60s so thank Christ he had no input). Loved her stories about our 1st number 9, but overall would have to pick Alan Ball. Some of the lads I go the match with are old enough to have seen him play and rave about him, one of them still gets emotional when he recalls the Cat selling him to Arsenal.

Players I've seen - loved Sheeds as a kid, also though Tricky Trev was ace (especially on the occasions he played CM), Southall was the best keeper I've ever seen bar none, but overall I'd say Kanchelskis. When he got the ball, something would happen.

Current player - Baines, by a country mile. Best LB I've had the pleasure of watching, local lad with great attitude. And very nice hair.
 
Never Seen: i would have loved to watch the "Scool of Science" in action on a weekly basis back in 69-70 season

Past player I've seen: Would still be Andy Gray, for the game against Bayern alone but also for that ridiculous goal in the '84 Cup Final

Current Player: Hibbo. Love the man, still got it too
 
Never seen - should be Dean but I'm going to say Alex Young
Seen - Southall, honourable mention to kanchelskis
Current - Baines
Future - mirallas, he could be special
 
....who's the greatest of them all, little curly Alan Ball - rhapsody in Blue, the best I've seen and my all time favourite.
Not so sure about a favourite from the current squad, I'm a big Jagielka fan but I'd probably go with Mirallas who looks like he could be something special. Also really looking forward to the kid from Barca.
 
Definitely Alan Ball. He's the reason a very young version of my Dad started supporting Everton and eventually brought me up properly too.

Duncan Ferguson, as when I started to understand football as a kid we were absolutely shocking but he gave me some great memories.

I think Mirallas is going to be awesome this season but my current favourite is Seamus Coleman. Excitement every time he gets the ball!
