Gary Lineker - What I Wore (Everton)

He clearly doesn't feel any affinity with us, therefore why should any blue feel an affinity with him?

World class striker who was great for us but ultimately he abandoned us to play for Barcelona. Can't understand or forgive that because they at the time weren't a better side than us, they were a far cry from the Barca we know in modern day.

Mercenary.
 

People denigrating Lineker have clearly not listened to many interviews of his. Consistently says Everton were the best team he played for. Says recently on his podcast with Danny Baker that ideally he would have stayed a few years with Everton and won trophies before going abroad. Everton sold him. He didn't ask to go. One of the greatest strikers ever to pull on the shirt. Shame it was only one season. Never got the shouts about us not winning anything because we changed our style for him. He scored 40 goals ffs. What more could he have done? Nev's injury and Liverpool's incredible run of wins in the run in killed us. Lazy in the extreme to say he does Everton down.

Think the Everton board cashed in tbh, unable to resist Barca's offer. We had previous for this going back to Ball and we've been at it ever since.
