Where are they now? The last Everton team to beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League

The Premier League roars through another busy programme this week as the league embraces the busy festive period and matchday sixteen throws up an opportunity for one team to bury one of their longest-running winless streaks. 

In-form Everton will head to Stamford Bridge on Saturday looking to best a Chelsea team that are without a win in four and record their first win at the stadium in over thirty years. 

The Toffees haven't won at the Bridge since 26th November 1994. Baby D was singing Let Be Your Fantasy at the top of the charts, Mrs Doubtfire topped the box office, and Glenn Hoddle was still an active player on the pitch as the Blues succumbed to a 1-0 defeat to Joe Royle's side. 

The current cast - some of which weren't even born the last time they won at the ground - will look to break that hoodoo this weekend, but which Everton heroes made up the team that day over three decades ago? 

Neville Southall 

Arguably the greatest goalkeeper to ever put on a pair of Everton gloves, Southall was in the winter of his career by the time the Premier League rolled around, but as with all world-class keepers, still as good as ever. 

He played over 750 games for the club and was still in nets for the Toffees' FA Cup win a year after this game, before eventually leaving the club in 1998. He'd play for TEN more clubs as he wound down his career - including a Premier League cameo in 2000 for Bradford aged 41 - before going into coaching and managing a string of non-league outfits.

These days, he's somewhat of a social media activist, regularly speaking up politically as a supporter of various charitable causes and LGBT rights. 

Gary Ablett 

One of the few players to have tread the boards on both sides of Merseyside, Ablett was a two-time title winner with Liverpool before moving to Everton in 1992. 

A ball-playing defender, able to play in the centre or the left of a back four, he'd spend four years with the Toffees and win the FA Cup before moving on to Birmingham.

Ablett hung up his boots in 2001 and briefly managed Stockport County before he was tragically diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and passed away in 2012, aged just 46. 

Andy Hinchcliffe 

A reliable and consistent full-back with a wand of a left foot, Hincliffe began his career with Manchester City before moving to Everton in 1990 and spent eight years at Goodison.

Known for his ability to shoot from distance, the left-back scored several notable goals for the club and won seven England caps during his time with the club. 

He later played for Sheffield Wednesday and can now be regularly heard as a co-commentator for Sky's Football League coverage. 

David Unsworth 

A rugged and dogged defender who played in nearly 400 games for Everton across two spells, as well as spells at West Ham and Wigan in the Premier League. 

He was also known for his ability to get on the scoresheet, with only John Terry having scored more Premier League goals as a defender than Unsworth. 

Went into coaching after retirement and was last seen in charge at Oldham Athletic. 

Dave Watson 

The skipper on the day, Watson, moved to Everton from Norwich in 1986 and would stay on Merseyside for fifteen years with the club. 

The defender is still the last Toffees player to have lifted silverware, as he led the club to their FA Cup triumph over Manchester United in 1995. 

He moved into coaching after retiring, with backroom stints at Wigan and Newcastle.

Matt Jackson 

A full-back who spent the majority of his career with Everton and Wigan in the top flight. 

He is best remembered at Goodison for his assist for Paul Rideout in the FA Cup Final, which set up the winning goal. Jackson also scored in the semi-final win over Spurs. 

Fast forward to 2025 and the former defender has one of the most unique post-football roles as the Club President of Swiss side Grasshopper Club Zürich. 

Barry Horne 

The midfielder was known as one of Joe Royle's 'Dogs of War' during his time at Goodison, and played more games for Everton than any other club throughout his career. 

Horne was part of the FA Cup-winning team of 1995 and would win 59 caps for the Wales national team. 

Since retiring, he has forged out a media career and had spells as both Director of Football at Wrexham and chairman of the PFA.

Anders Limpar 

One of the first big foreign names of the era, Limpar made his name at Arsenal, adding some Swedish flair to George Graham's pragmatic First Division-winning side of 1991. 

He moved to Everton in 1994 and was a key player in their FA Cup triumph during a three-year stint on Merseyside. 

Since retiring, the Swede briefly opened a bar called Limpar's Bar in Stockholm, but has since formed a plastic box company and is currently the CEO for a betting site. 

Joe Parkinson 

One of the unsung heroes of the Everton midfield, Parkinson moved to Goodison from Wigan and became a cult hero among the Toffee faithful. 

He spent six seasons on Merseyside, helping them to their FA Cup win, before a serious knee injury cut short his career. 

After football, Parkinson worked as a forklift driver before moving back into the game with coaching roles at Shrewsbury and Hartlepool. 

Duncan Ferguson 

An Everton icon, and one of the most fearsome strikers the Premier League has ever seen in three decades of the division.

Ferguson moved to the club a month before the win at the Bridge, and would go on to score over 70 goals across two spells at Goodison - and a league record of red cards, too. 

He still holds a Premier League record for most goals from a Scottish player and has recently moved into management. He was last seen as the boss of Inverness Caledonian Thistle, last season. 

Paul Rideout 

A hero on the day as it was Rideout's goal, who settled the game the last time Everton beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. However, the goal pales in comparison to his most famous goal for the club. 

It was the striker's header at Wembley the following year that won the Toffees the FA Cup, still the last time the club won a major piece of silverware. 

He is now living in the States, where he's been coaching, and is currently on the books of Real Salt Lake, Arizona. 

Chelsea: Dimitri Kharine, Jakob Kjeldbjerg, Frank Sincalr, Anthony Barness, Scott Minto, Craig Burley, Eddie Newton, Gavin Peacock, Nigel Spackman, Dennis Wise, John Spencer
