2019/20 Leighton Baines.

[Martin Alvito]

I wish him well. Truly a great player for us, and it's very unfair that he didn't get the proper send-off from the fans that he earned.

 

[Gwladysover]

My late Mum’s favourite player of recent times - although she always called him Leighton Buzzard!

 

[sconeblaster]

Gutted, but all good things come to an end, best left back in Europe for a few seasons in mu opinion, Thanks for everything Bainesy, you will be badly missed. Legend.

 

[roydo]

Is Coleman the last remaining Moyes-boy now?

Must be.

 

[messymascot]

Maybe this will allow Gibson to be kept as 4th choice CB and back up LB.

 

[coollino]

If I was a footballer I'd want a career like his. Not much pressure, not have football as my life, retire at a decent time.

 

[Carloblues]

Sad day, what a horrible way for a player as great as him to go out though, getting beat at home with no fans tons relegated team

 

[Armaghtoffee]

Rightly regarded as one of the best left backs ever to play for this great club.

Sad day but wonderful memories.

 

[Blue Cally]

Sad day,

Him & Tim Cahill the best players we have had in the last 20yrs.

Shame he couldn’t have bowed out with a win and in front of the fans. Hopefully gets a testimonial in front of fans someday.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Getting some coverage on Sky Sports now.

 

[Cels]

Shame he chose to end his career with Everton like this, depriving the supporters a chance to give him a proper send-off. But what else would you expect from the backstabbing rat? Get out of our club you fraud... Martina was a far better left-back.

​

Would have loved him to have stayed another season, but that's the way it goes. Best wishes to the guy, he gave us some great moments to savour. Top bloke, top left-back.

As starved of success as we've been in recent times, I do feel fortunate to have watched a player as good as him.

He was world class for several years.

 

[Somerset Blue]

Great player, wish nothing but the best!

 

[Davideeyore]

Wish you well Leighton although we still could do with you. When will Everton give the recently departed players of 10 years a testimonial? They're adding up

 

[Armaghtoffee]

This.
