Peter Reid - Everton Football Club 1982-1989

[@davemetcalfe369]

Yes I've been an Everton fan over 50 years I have seen some greats but peter is my best love to meet this guy

[@terencetrentwatford.632]

Bloody hell mate . Peter your best player ever for Everton ?

[@user-gd1ow9kb1q]

He would die for Everton, a True Blue. Remember when he cracked his ribs and carried on playing. Midfield General and a great partnership with Paul Bracewell. Quality!

[@roywinstanley9402]

Oh for a Peter Reid now....great memories from a real battler..

[@mel140297]

I Loved Peter`s attitude. To play for Everton you need that. It should be taught to all new Everton players FOREVER

[@blueboy2589]

As a season ticket holder, I watched many games from Peter Reid. Not the most gifted when compared with a Sheedy or Steven, he was more a holding type midfielder. However, be in no doubt from this old blue, Everton could have achieved what they did in the 1980's without him. He did all the spade work breaking up the opposition play and feeding the forwards. Had a good apprentice in Paul Bracewell, and I never recall him taking a time out like the modern day midfielders.. Big heart who never gave up or backed down !! I feel sorry for all you young blues out there who did not live through this period. Best Everton team EVER!!

[@simonsmith740]

I'm a Brighton fan but I would say Reid had stuff in his locker sheedy and Steven didn't. 3 great players mind but what a team you had 1984 to about 1989

The Leader Of The Greatest Team In The World

[@mkrbrtsn1]

As a Liverpool fan I had total respect for Reid. His clashes with McMahon were legendary, no playacting or trying to get the other bloke sent off.

[@simonsmith740]

Bryan Robson as well for manu. Great clashes....I think they became good mates

[@jeffgillen1847]

I had had the pleasure to meet Peter last nite great few hours thank you Peter and EDSA

[@ToffeesToffees]

My favourite Everton player after southall true great also player or the year and unbelievable talent very unrated one of our greats from the great 80s team thanks.

[@jje5878]

Proper player. All guts and quality

[@colinowens5587]

Proper center midfielder the reason we become great

[@tonynesbit9673]

THE catalyst /main man for Everton a really clever player and a winner he should have always been the captain and a Scouser to boot he is the ultimate evertonian in my opinion,thanks Peter you were fucking awesome we have not had ONE player like him since he left too early.

I always tell people, don’t love anything that can’t love you back. Everton loved me back. First game in 1966 at 8 years old. I was home and away for 5 years and had 2 season tickets for much longer before moving to USA. Peter Reid was everything you want Everton to be. Loyal; honest; committed; passionate; tough but fair. Never shirked a tackle. Gave as good as he got and always had the back of his team mates. Despite our political differences I know he’s a thoroughly decent bloke. Along with the rest of the lads he gave me some of the best years of my life and for that I am forever grateful.

[@mel140297]

I love Peter Reid, he was a brilliant professional footballer, who loved his employer and he showed what he wanted with them. His employers Everton FC knew what they had bought but they didn`t know his future strength - True Everton feeling True Everton Love. All Evertonions have the true Blue love. Peter is a true Evertonion through and through.....

[@leonkinsella7748]

Leader of a great team

[@Pritch75]

Thank you Mr Peter Reid

[@kevingill648]

Fabulous player! the driving force behind Everton's mid 80s team, hope one day we can get to the standards they set. COYB

[@chrisscanlan7703]

Brilliant player. Loved watching him.

[@john-fl2qu]

superb defender, and very strong, one of the best.

[@salsadancer4965]

My best memories of Peter Reid is at the world cup playing the holding role behind hoddle this was after England lost Robson and Sansom. What a leader what a midfield General.

[@adamw2911]

Yep, he was excellent in Mexico during the 1986 World Cup. Was unlucky not to retain his place really.

[@kailashpatel1706]

You mean Wilkins?

[@kailashpatel1706]

@@adamw2911 One of the problems that England had going into the Tourney was whether Reid Or Wilkins should play the supportive role for Hoddle, I think Bobby was too scared to drop Ray even though it was clear from the qualifications and friendlies (game against Scotland in April 1986 when Reid came on in the second half) that was the case..

[@itsinthetreesitscoming7431]

@@kailashpatel1706 haha no - it was when Wilkins got himself sent off against Morocco and Reid came into the team that we dramatically improved....

[@kailashpatel1706]

@@itsinthetreesitscoming7431 A year earlier during the 1985 Tour of Mexico, Reid looked like a better conduit for Hoddle..Ray was calibre but never as good as channeling the ball to Glenn as Reid was..

[@SarahJonestoo]

Loved watching Reidy. Sometimes we'd be a bit indifferent or under sustained pressure and you could feel something go off in head like 'I'm not having this!'. He'd turn up the energy and afterburners, put a few tackles in and the whole team would rally and get back control of the game. Brilliant.

[@kevinjohnson-xt6kn]

Another legend

[@philpatton5652]

Loved that man

[@declanoshaughnessy7733]

A pure midfield dynamo one of The Toffees best ever number sixes a pure genius 💙💙💙

[@plynch8787]

Ried was a gem - What a player

[@philipjones3517]

Surely one of the best value for money transfers ever, particularly as Everton got him for a fraction of the price they'd offered Bolton a couple of years earlier.

[@stormytempest3907]

Genuine EVERTON ENFORCER!

[@EVERTONFC.]

This is England music at the end making me sad. Peter Reied makes me smile . Go ed Reidy la .

[@Coneman3]

💯 % effort man

[@itsinthetreesitscoming7431]

I never thought of Reid as being a 'defensive' midfielder.

[@stormytempest6521]

EVERTON GLADIATOR.

[@fazfinisher5598]

How we love our jet black reid !

[@michealflaithbheartaigh4139]

How was he never made Everton Manager when he was at Sunderland !

[@regdude7358]

Simple without Reidy we would have been just a great team. With Reidy we never expected to lose.

[@georgestranack612]

Speedy Reidy 💙

[@drewburdett7886]

Thanks for this. I'd forgotten how much I hated football in the 80s. That snarling fool arriving full pelt to smash into someone's ankles.

[@itsinthetreesitscoming7431]

He could really play. Obviously, you don't know shit. Oh, and the challenge you are obviously talking about on this video is on Brian Marwood. There was a very good reason for that....

[@dannyjones8445]

Peter is my friends grandad

[@gedeye5778]

Go ed Elvis lad.

[@SMSJSC]

I always admired Peter Reid in Everton's heyday. Skilful, of course, but perhaps his greatest gift was his sheer determination. If there was one blight on his career, it was perhaps his part in the sending-off of Kevin Moran in the '85 Cup Final.

[@BueyBuey-rv8cx]

You a bit thick ? FFS🤔🤔🤔

[@tonynesbit9673]

Are you joking,that thick twat just dived in like an Irish navy,which by the way lost us the cup final as the game turned on that ,United were shite that day just got lucky with that freak goal we would have twatted them in the replay and they knew it.we murdered them that year plus we beat them easily a few months later in the charity shield.

[@terencetrentwatford.632]

I think his worst football game was v Argentina . He was awful in that game .. didn't wanna know after getting smashed by an argie defender early on .

[@SMSJSC]

@@BueyBuey-rv8cx What's your point, man?

[@SMSJSC]

@@tonynesbit9673 So United were shite, but you couldn't beat them? Even with an extra man??
