not here long enough

....I'd describe him as a Centre Forward Winger. He was very good.

Huyton Layne · October 22, 2014

Ridiculously good and also could head a ball really well, which is always surprising for a winger.

I would describe him as better than Trevor Steven (some will obviously disagree!) and somebody who wasn't here long enough.
Reminds me a lot of Lineker in that context - such a shame we didn't have either of them for a longer time.

he could get the fans out of their seats, and there are not many who could do,that.

He is the one outfield player I would pick from all the years watching Everton (since 84) that I would put in the current team. He was just a juggernaut of a winger when on it. Neville Southall would be my overall choice and even though I loved watching Steven, Lineker, Ferguson and Rooney, I would still pick Kanchelskis. In full flow he was magic.

Just so,so direct,I think big Joe described him as a wide striker which was about right,can't really remember him going down the wing and providing many crosses,he'd see the whites of the posts then shoot,really greedy beggar,but I mean that in a good way!!

Two games stand out for me, Blackburn and Sheff Wed away, world class and unplayable.

Unbelievable ,but came and went in a flash ,could get into most Everton's teams of any era, just a shame he never
stayed longer.

Ask your nephew who his fav ever player is/was, then snort and say:

"He was 10 times better......"

because he probably was.

I STILL can't believe we bought him, the best winger in the world at the time.
