Who do you think was the best Everton player you ever saw

[Eggs]

...take it from this old fella that nobody even comes close to Bally.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Southall.

Mentions for Tricky, Reidy, Lineker and Rooney

 

[Phil86]

Being born in 86, Kanchelskis is one of the few genuine class players I've seen pull on the shirt.

 

[Jimmy Flangemoth]

Kanchelskis. It was a brief stay, but he was class.

 

[Joey66]

ALAN BALL!

 

[Neiler]

Arteta deserves a shout a great player on his day for a couple of seasons, Sheedy as well. But Big Nev really for my vintage.

 

[milkshock]

Southall

 

[deipnosophist]

Sheedy, Reid or Southall

 

[peteblue]

Ball or Young......

 

[MACCA75]

Kanchelskis for me.
That hat trick at Sheffield Wednesdaywas the best performanceI'd ever seen and stilleverseen from an individual in an
Everton shirt.

Remember looking at the papers the next day, Kanchelskis was given 9/10 in the match ratings. I thought 'what on earth do you have to do to get a 10!? Was an astonishing performance.

 

[quasi modo]

Andrei Kanchelskis for me, he was lethal that first season he signed.

 

[Toffeelover]

It really is an impossible question to respond to, there have been so many all with their particular aspects of genius.

Going way back and a career which was stupidly ended when he did something and was not on Everton's books at the time. TONY KAY.

 

[Baines' left foot]

Baines for me.

 

[dead_soft]

Baines for me.

I can't wait for him to go to United so he can really unlock his potential and we can watch him with swelling pride

 

[scam]

Tough one but probably Southall, weird to pick a keeper but he was different class on any pitch. Honourable mentions to Sheedy, Reid and Kanchelskis.

The player that came into my head instantly is Neville Southall. I've watched Everton for fifty years. Other great players have come and gone and have been equalled. Big Nev is in a league of his own in my memories.
