Got wondering who is my current favourite player of our squad and who was my favourite of all time? Bit of fun. Can only be one choice. Current player for me is DIgne. Real quality signing, good defender and good going forward. Love his passion for the club already. All time favourite has to Tim Cahill. Embodies everything I want from a footballer. Loved him Picked my two for me mate. Good choices! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you held a gun to my head I'd say Gana. Missed the... ....bit so I'd have to go with Bally. very good choices but for me there was only ever Alex Young Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was also good with his head considering he wasn't a big lad. Southall my favourite goalie, and Latchford my favourite striker ⇑ 5. Alex Young “The Golden Vision” (1960-68) 271 appearances, 87 goals “I left Everton Football Club in 1968. But I can honestly say that Everton has never left me.” Alex Young was the beatific poster boy for the School of Science. Bought for £42,000 from Hearts, Young bewitched all with his skill and it soon became fluorescently obvious to Evertonians that they had someone truly special. “The Golden Vision” with his vicar’s collar and blonde locks was an elegant, gracile forward who – for a slight man – had wonderful heading ability. So acute was his reading of the game that he could deliver exquisite passes without even checking where his teammates were. Young scored 89 goals in 275 appearances; his 22 strikes helped win the league for Everton in 1963 and he was in the FA Cup winning team of 1966. There was something almost ethereal about Young, who somehow throttled the life out of games with the lightest of touches, and he is probably the most beloved of all Everton legends. rubecula 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
