Neither Leighton Baines nor Seamus Coleman get the proper respect they deserve footballing wise. Everyone loves them as professionals, but they were some of the best fullbacks the Premier League has seen. As a tandem they are top ranked.
While I'm here, I'm honestly stumped as to how the everliving heck we got our hands on Eto'o. I remember booting up a FIFA game on the PS2 for the first time, and seeing that weapon up front, and audibly vocalizing to my family around me "The heck is he doing in here?!"
I ain't ever forgetting them left footed crosses into the box from Baines. Big men today wish they got the same service that Lukaku got with him on the field 🤌
For me Arsenal = O2 Man utd = AIG and AON Chelsea = Samsung Liverpool = Carlsberg Everton = Chang Spurs = AIA My nostalgia jersey in prem team during 2000s to 2010s
I thought the same thing. Lukaku wasn't so great before leaving. Comes back, flops and trips on his own ball thinking he'll play like this. Barkley lost all his confidence and becomes just another player. Sucks to see great talent going to Chelsea then you don't see any of that once they are there.
@@bhvillaman4401 He was a lot slimmer and more mobile in his Everton days. For whatever reason, in his first season at United he decided to trade mobility for even more mass and strength, when it really wasn't a weak point of his game at all. The goals you see in the first minute or so of this video, against Chelsea in the cup and Arsenal at Goodison, are things he has simply not been capable of since that transfer, and he's a much worse player for it.
Leighton would've been amazing in this era , its a shame what happened with barkely cause he had so much potential but he looks back to his best at luton and lowkey lukaku in his final season at everton had a good case as one of the top 15 strikers in the world
Bainsey was the best. The two free kicks against West Ham!!! Met Terry cooper a few years back in Tenerife and he agreed. Himself and bainsey were the best. I totally agree that I am also a teeny bit biased 😂.
Our 2009 team was the best of the Premier League era. Howard, Baines, Lescott, Jakielka, Jack Rodwell, Arteta, Cahill, Pienaar, Fellaini, Osman, Castillo, Saha, Yakubu, Vaughan, Anichebe. That squad is probably better than the vast majority of prem teams this season.
I agree. When fully fit that team was able to beat anyone in the league. But it had too many unjury problems, mainly Saha and Arteta and few others too. Saha was absolutely world class when fully fit. What a striker he was. Arteta was brilliant at Everton too. Pienaar was a baller.
Everton was sooo hard to beat on FIFA career mode. Especially Fifa 10 & Fifa 11. If you played above semi pro difficulty you would know. Lukaku was a beast
I absolutely loved this Everton, they were magic! Good job mate with the video and I love the fact that lots of the commentary is in Italian, it brings back memories.
I used to watch this team quite a lot, mainly for Deulofeu and Naismith - both of whom tended to start on the bench but usually got a run-out. Naismith saved the points on numerous occasions after being subbed on. But, yes, quality throughout.
If Everton was a complete team around that time, theyd probably have more trophies in the cabinet. There were times where i was happy to even earn a draw vs Everton they were that good
The irony is that the team just needed investment. Which it didn't get, always sell to buy. Moyes left in 2013, and a billionaire chairman arrived in 2014. The irony.
As an Arsenal fan, I always hated Everton because they always seemed to play so well everytime they play us back during the early 2010s. I was only a kid of course but the quality they had made me hate them. But looking back at it, Everton had an admirable talented squad who could have done wonders in Europe if they had the right backing for a manager.
As a lifelong Everton fan it makes me sad to compare this team to the one of today. There was so much energy, pace, creativity. Shame there’s no mention of Leon Osman in this video! He made it all tick. Even got himself an England cap on the back of his form.
honestly its ashame barkley left at one point was one of the biggest english prospects but I'll never forget this Everton team it was a team that would put up a fight with everyone Gerrard Deulofeu,Lukaku when he was an unstoppable attacker,Mirales,Seamus Coleman arguably one of the best full backs in the league in his prime,Tim Howard a keeper that won over everyone with his performances against belgium in 2014 world cup,Leighton Baines same as coleman incredible full back,Stones a top rated prospect at the time,Mccgeady who had the most beautiful mccgeady spins(no sh*t sherlock),
2005 (4th), 2007 (6th), 2008 (5th), 2009 (5th), 2013 (6th), 2014 (5th). They only started talking about a "top 6" when Fergie left Man Utd, and it was pretty much a meme when they mentioned "the top 6" not referring to Everton, even though they finished above Man Utd and tottenham in the very same season.
Steven Naismith, Aiden McGeady, Leighton Baines, Phil Jagielka, Ross Barkley, Seamus Coleman, and also Brandon Galloway. This is my favorite Everton era. (Arsenal fan)
In 2014 I became a fan of Everton. As an American I found a club and became attached to them when I was only 12. This is the team I always knew. 8th place being what we said was “average” and that we were going in the wrong direction. Now look at us. Shambles
everton have had so many scots in their team in the last 25 years its mad,Weir,Naysmith,Naismith,mcfadden,patterson,big dunc plus alot that came from the scottish leagues like stubbs and Mccarthy
yeah u did both Mccarthy and Mcgeady got alot of abuse up here cos they where basically scottish,born and bred here with weegie accents but chose to play for ireland cos of youth team involvement
@@simonpeyton-n3h Yeah I heard about that when McGeady signed. I was so hyped for him because he was great on Fifa but he was poor for us. He was under Martinez though which is troublesome
God knows why Lukaku felt the need to put on all that mass when he moved to United. Rendered him almost completely immobile, when he was already very strong. He could be very dangerous when running with the ball when he was at Everton and West Brom.
I'll always say bringing back Drogba for 1 year and getting rid of Lukaku rather than giving Lukaku Drogba and Remy's minutes that season was one of the biggest mistakes Chelsea made, he was a 20 goal man for years in his early days and we couldn't buy a 10 goal man for love or money for years.
This makes me sad seeing how good of a team we had on the cusp of Europe most years and we are now just a former shell of ourselves fighting to stay in the league for the third year running
Liverpool supporter here… when Everton had Carlos Ancelotti, that’s when they were good and top the table before Christmas but in the end Ancelotti screwed the Toffees and left quickly after two seasons. If he didn’t left, Everton won’t be in deep 💩 by now
Wow I completely forgot that Samuel Eto'o played for Everton lol, I guess that makes sense because he only played 14 league games and a couple of cup games for them. Also Leighton Baines was such a good solid player, he almost feels like the definition of underrated although at the time he played he might not have been seen as underrated but still.
The defensive set up of Moyes with the attacking flair of Martinez was great the first season, but then they lost both in 2014/15 season and that was the start of Everton’s downfall
Lukaku is the prime example of people being given too much - the guy is a complete spoiled baby who let his talents go to waste all because of his big head
Mirallas, Delafeou....in the mould of Beagrie, Steven, Sheedy, Cahill, Kilbane, Gravesen, Ginola, Samways, McKenzie, Fellaini....where did it all go wrong? We now have the likes of Dope-Coure, Young and Gueye. I wanna be SICK
Oh god, did you really have to remind me of that moment where Lukaku absolutely destroys Per on the halfway line 😂🤦🏻 It's almost like when I see that again, like it happened yesterday. Oh how things have changed now though. Lukaku was an absolute monster at Everton. He really should have stayed there. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure he's probably still a great striker in Italy, but nowhere near his Everton level.
Scared everyone on FIFA maybe, but irl? They were a solid upper table team but nothing more than that. Mirallas was that cheap striker on FUT with 88 pace under 2k coins and stayed in your team almost all year lmao. Etoo came over and was WASHED but his first card on FIFA still had 90+ pace lol
Not having James McCarthy he was pulling strings in the middle for us under Martinez, those two seasons McCarthy covered every blade of grass and ran like rolls royce
its crazy how many scots have played for everton in last 20 or so years and a few others who were not scottish but signed from scottish clubs weir stubbs naysmith naismith mcfadden arteta ferguson mccarthy mcgeady patterson hutchison jelavic even gazza ive just noticed i commented similar 3 months ago i need to get out more lol
