    It was close on votes…but it’s Moise! Next…BEST!


    Best Everton player in Prem era.
    *reason for not before prem is so we can reflect on more recent years. I know for best we could throw the cup winners cup team in or Dixie. But for Prem…who’s been our best player?

      Objectively it’s Rooney but you wouldn’t say Rooney is the best Everton player, you could add the likes of James Rodriguez and Stones to this list.

      In the Prem era in terms of players that played here in their prime there’s candidates like Baines, Jagielka, Lukaku, Pickford, Fellaini, Arteta, etc.

      For me it’s Baines. He would have been England starter had not been for the best left back ever in Ashley Cole. Moyes wanted to take him to Man Utd and I’m pretty sure there was legitimate Bayern interest at one point. Man’s an Everton legend.

      It’s between Baines and Arteta for me.

      Arteta is probably the most technically gifted player we had in the Prem and Baines did everything you would need from a full back, and did it brilliantly.

      Baines by a very tight margin.

      Mikel Arteta.

      To this day, I wonder what we look like if we’d hired him rather than Carlo (and that’s no dig on Carlo, btw).

      It’s already fucked how is Moise Kean overrated doubt you could find a single person who thought he was good for us

      My heart says Baines.
      But I think Pickford. He’s been so good for a while now.

      I think it’s very close between the two of them.

      I hate the respect Evertonians give arteta.

      Never forget he started a fight with baines….a true blue.

      Baines all day long.

      Tim Cahill for me. Scored loads of goals, and important ones. And he loved a goal against the shite.

      I appreciate the Baines shouts, but I’m going to say our top PL scorer and the most dominant player I’ve seen in an Everton strip, Romelu Lukaku

      I think Baines was as good as Cole who many consider to be the best modern left back

      Phil Neville is absolutely the best player Everton has ever seen i recent history. His leadership was nothing short of legendary, with his ability to command the defense and rally the team in every match. Whether he was shutting down attackers or making crucial passes in midfield, Neville was always a game-changer. His versatility was unmatched, seamlessly transitioning between roles and leaving opponents in awe. His passion for the club shone through in every performance, consistently delivering at the highest level. There’s just no comparing him to any other Everton legend of the last 25 years—anyway if you got this far, i’m clearly taking the piss.

      I’m gonna have to say Rooney easily the best player we’ve ever had in the prem era. It ended in tears but he was hands down the best player to play for Everton in the prem.

      I want to say Jags because he was my favourite but i think it has to be Bainesy

      I am going Baines or Cahill.

      Pickford, Arteta, Pienaar, Lukaku, James and Coleman all in the mix as well.

      The answer is Southall.

      We’ve had some great players, but at his peak, Southall was the best goalkeeper in the world. I don’t think there’s a single other player we’ve had we could say that about.

      I loved Baines, but he wasn’t even the best left-back in the Premier League in his time, never mind the world.
