I just don’t see where the chances are if he’s not even participating in a game that we didn’t score in and were on top in. He’ll be top notch at Lazio though.
Let’s hope!! I wish Moyes would stop saying “we can’t spend £60 mil on a forward, we’ve got two boys who are trying to improve.” Doesn’t sound like he thinks Barry is going to explode this season. A work in progress.
Summer? Will probably need in January to push on if anywhere near Top 6. Surely there must also be better "Free Agent" strikers in Europe better than Beto and Barry short term for not to high a price.
Obviously positional sense and defensive awareness, when to press, where to be off the ball etc is something that can be coached and improved with game time and experience. It’s not something that happens overnight though.
With Alcaraz, I rate...
….BBC;
Beto is an honest trier as a striker and his attitude cannot be faulted, but he falls short of the class Everton require to turn the creation of Grealish and Ndiaye into consistent end product.
Not really, it’s just what attributes a manager places emphasis on. That might not be what you or I place emphasis on in that position but it is for Moyes. He’s always been the same going back to Tim Cahill. Not a creative player but could pop up...
I think that’s probably it exactly. Alcaraz output in front of goal was better than Doucoure last season as well but Moyes always played Doicoure when available for exactly that reason. Worked incredibly hard off the ball, presses in shape, good...
I think he will win him over imo looks like wants to learn and is prob moyes wanting to work more on his game. Making sure he keeps the team shape when need defensively. Still think as the season goes on we will see more of players like alcaraz...
Yeah that’s why I said Moyes doesn’t look sold on him and doesn’t sound sold on him. I don’t think that necessarily means he’s a write off though, it’ll depend what he does when he gets his chances, which he will.
Moyes does this with players if...
He’ll get a chance for sure. Think he’s first reserve for any of the front three positions. If he does well, you’d have to hope Moyes recognises that and gives him a run. If not, he’ll be off.
