INFO:

Peter Reid was a fantastic midfielder mostly known for his spell at Everton where he was an influential figure in their greatest ever team in the mid 80s. Reid combined an incredible mentality and will to win with excellent playmaking abilities, especially dangerous with his long passing. He was absolutely tough as nails and would fly into challenges at speed with no regard for his own or his opponents safety. Despite his lack of height and pace he could battle with any midfielder in the world on his day and anyone that crossed him would soon come to regret it. And yet, when he had the ball he was a classy player who could beat one or two players at a time with his close control and play defence splitting passes, and his driving midfield runs with the ball at his feet could open up gaps in the opposition. Even playing in deeper positions he could control games with his intelligent decision making and excellent long passing ability without sacrificing defensive stability. The main weaknesses in his game were his sometimes silly and violent fouls trying to take revenge for when he was tackled, and his slowness which led to the play sometimes passing him by, although he showed good speed when he was dribbling past players. His career was also blighted by injuries, rarely making it past 20 league games in a season because of how often he was hurt, probably not helped by his very physical and intensive style of play. When not injured, he proved himself as a world class midfielder, winning the PFA Player of the Year award and even finishing 4th in the World Soccer Player of the Year in 1985, behind only Platini, Maradona and Preben Elkjaer.
