Attack/Defence Awareness Card: Balanced Colin Harvey was a central midfielder who spent the bulk of his playing career at Everton, joining the club as a youth in 1960 and making his first-team debut in 1963. He became a key figure in the club’s most celebrated midfield trio—alongside Howard Kendall and Alan Ball—famously known as the "Holy Trinity." Harvey was central to Everton’s success in the late 1960s and early 1970s, including the 1966 FA Cup win and the First Division title in 1969–70. He made over 300 league appearances for the Toffees before moving briefly to Sheffield Wednesday at the end of his playing days. Despite his class and consistency, Harvey was surprisingly capped only once by England, in 1971.
On the pitch, Harvey was known for his intelligence, calmness, and elegance in possession. A naturally right-footed player, he was technically gifted with excellent vision and passing accuracy, traits that allowed him to dictate the rhythm of play from midfield with either foot. While not physically dominant, he compensated with exceptional awareness and timing in both attack and defense. He also had a tireless work ethic and could cover ground effectively. His style was often described as graceful, leading fans to affectionately nickname him the “White Pelé”—a reflection of his skill rather than any attempt to match the Brazilian's scoring prowess.
