TOP 60 EVERTON PLAYERS: #36. Sam Chedgzoy

36. Sam Chedgzoy (1910-26)

279 appearances, 33 goals

Chedgzoy can claim to be the main catalyst for the corner-kick rules that were highlighted last season with the corner kick controversy involving Wayne Rooney and Ryan Giggs at Old Trafford. Against Arsenal, Chedgzoy dribbled a corner kick into the area and took a shot, exposing a loophole in the rules. England’s outside right – and a father figure to the young Dixie Dean – Chedgzoy won the league title in 1915 and was capped eight times for England.
