How many games did Limpar have? He was a fav of mine.
Lee Carsley
If we are talking ever then Dixie has to be in there from the off.
Sheedy too?

...600+ games between them, this thread is about players who had a huge impact but played less than 110.
Couldn't argue with any of them but I think you left championship winning member out, another very versatile player with a few goals in him, Richardson, he also won a league medal with Arsenal, like Harper he never moaned when dropped from the team and always gave one hundred per cent in every game he played.Well, it’s an international break so here’s an international break thread.
I always think longevity is a factor in being a true Everton great, but there are many who had a significantly positive impact despite not being at the club very long. Using a maximum of 110 league games as criteria, here’s my team from the time I started watching;
1) Andy Rankin (85 games) - sat in Gwladys St when he made that save in the penalty shoot-out against Borussia Monchengladbach. Folklore.
2) Alan Harper (103) - Mr Versatile and a few crucial goals to throw in the mix.
4) Tony Kay (57) - career cut short but would surely have been an Everton and England great.
5) Derek Mountfield (110) - 19 goals from CB. Those of us at Villa Park and such places thank him for the memories.
3) Paul Power (54) - right time, right place. Outstanding in the ‘87 title win, what an astute piece of business by Kendall.
7) Andrei Kanchelskis (52) - all too brief but memorable.
6) Paul Bracewell (95) - what a player for us in the mid-80s, had a major impact despite a serious injury.
11) Dave Thomas (71) - socks rolled down, crossing at speed from the bye-line for Latchford. Tremendous.
10) Wayne Rooney (98) - Arguably England’s greatest ever player, historic impact coming through as a youngster.
8) Andy Gray (49) - so few games but drove us to success in the mid-80s with attitude and ability.
9) Gary Lineker (41) - 30 goals. Incredible for just one trophyless season.
Subs - Alan Whittle (74); Wayne Clarke (75); Mike Trebilcock (11).

Deffo agree with most of those. Kanchelskis was indeed all too brief, and I didn’t realise Andy Gray only played 8 more games than Lineker, who in any other season would’ve had a league and cup double.Well, it’s an international break so here’s an international break thread.

Good shout - we lost Rooney, and he was our one man striker who gave us 4th place, I remember vaguely Joe Royle at Norwich years before we eventually signed him telling DM he was ideal for the blues when Bent was an up an coming young striker......Marcus bent
Another great shout we need two men to do his job now........199 appearances mate. Terrific player for us though!
