The five worst strikers you've seen play for Everton

[Dario Terracotta]

John Spencer has got to be the worst. Most of the others had something about them but he had absolutely nothing.

Decent at Chelsea too he was,doh!!always knew he should have stuck to snooker

 

[allezlesbleus]

Belfitt, Bernie wright, Brett Angell, john Spencer, straq although give credit to a whole hearted trier. Poor lad just was not very good.

We've had loads of "meh" strikers in my lifetime. Some we though were decent but ended up being decent only fleetingly.

Imre Varadi, Bakayoko, John Spencer, Tommy Johnson anyone? Madar, James Beattie and so many others

Varadi . Except when he scored that goal against the RS and the mutants wanted to string him up.

Remember when we had so many injuries and a vey small squad that Steve Watson had to play up front? What a mess we were in back then.

To be honest, I've always had a memory of Smallman being a bit gash, but I was young at his time. Having checked his record, I'm owning up to being off target. I'm hereby allowing one free transfer per poster. In light of this, I'm replacing Smallman with Jim Pearson, the human hairpin. Never a fan of this skinny rake.

Because a lot of us got in to Everton in the Walker/Smith/Moyes years where we thought good strikers were what other teams had...wipes tear away

Niasse looked like he'd never played an 11 a side game in his life.

I'm one of straqs biggest fans in gratitude for his efforts but there was no way he was anywhere close to premiership level.

Jelavic just got worse with every game he played and I couldn't wait to get rid.

Brett angell just wasn't played in the right formation. Given a few more years and I think he could have been one of our number 9 icons.

I know Stuart Barlow couldn't hit a barn door, or a cow's arse with a banjo, but I remember him, not as "barndoor', but as "jigsaw", as in 'falls apart in the box'.
