Best Everton players of all time

#5 Alan Ball

The Englishman won just one major honour during his time with the Toffees but his impact was so immense that he was considered as one of his generation’s best midfielders along with Colin Harvey and Howard Kendall who were referred to as Everton’s ‘Holy Trinity’.

Ball, who was the youngest member of England’s 1966 World Cup winning squad, scored 66 goals in 208 appearances for the Toffees which helped him gain a reputation as one of his country’s best midfielders.

The late Englishman then moved to Arsenal for a record fee of £220,000 but is still highly respected at Goodison Park.
