The 1990-91 campaign for Everton was defined by the emotional return of legendary manager Howard Kendall, guiding The Toffees to a 9th-place finish in the First Division. Prolific striker Tony Cottee's 24 goals across all competitions were crucial in a season marked by cup drama, including a thrilling FA Cup win over rivals Liverpool but ultimately ending as runners-up in the Full Members' Cup Final. It was a pivotal year that marked the start of Kendall's second spell at the club and remains a defining chapter for the Toffees faithful.
