Submit ReviewOn this edition of Across The Park Extra, Millsy is joined by Luke Garbutt via zoom, as they run through the timeline of his Everton career. Luke tells us of the pressure's he felt from the start, when his move to Everton at the age of 16 had huge publicity, resulting in a tribunal deciding his fee and how he carried that pressure around in the early stages of his time at the club. We talk about his time on loan at Cheltenham & Colchester before his step up the first team squad, & Luke explains how he found his time under David Moyes and his reaction to Roberto Martinez coming in as his successor. Luke talks in detail about his thoughts on the different styles of both managers and his admiration for how Roberto brought him into the team in 2014-15 and his pride at some of his performances that season. We break down the end of 14-15 when Luke was left out of the squads as contract negotiations unfolded and how frustrated he was at the time, before his decision to sign a 5 year deal and the hope he had to be successful at Everton. Luke also discusses the pro-longed ending of his time at the club, and how an incident with Ronald Koeman was the reality that his days at the club were numbered & his pain at being omitted from the Premier League squad for 17-18. Luke is open and honest about how this affected him mentally and how he re discovered his passion for the game with loans spells at Oxford & Ipswich. We finish off with Luke revealing his love for the fanbase and his appreciation of the support he always received. This is a must listen for all Evertonian's and football fans a like!
