As we should.

And Barry. Honestly maybe even McNeil too. And Aznou! McNeil - Alcaraz - Dibling is a perfectly fine attacking trio behind the striker. And we can bring Grealish, KDH and Ndiaye on for a half hour blast at 60 minutes if we need a goal.

More worried about our midfield than Beto actually. We've looked our wobbliest this season when our midfield hasn't been able to get that foothold because of the intensity of the opposition, and RS definitely play intense. Desperately need Myko back and Garner back in CM, or Röhl to immediately...

His best 11 three days after a derby may not be the same as his best 11 usually tbf.

Ideal really. No rush at all. He had a more disrupted preseason than most, has only been here a few weeks (and was away for one) and he's v young. Great that there's no need to rely on him yet. He'll start getting regular minutes from next week

This post is an absolute rollercoaster hahah

Thank you for speaking sense. People constantly saying 'we need a proven goalscorer right now!' and it's like...for what? All the trophies we're competing for this season? We did the smart thing for once which was instead buy a young striker with a high ceiling who can contribute enough now but...

Somehow only really just clocked that Wolves is only three days after Liverpool. Beto will start the derby and Barry will start against Wolves. Be good to see him for an hour against Premier League opposition. Actually might see a good bit of rotation and get some longer looks at Rohl, Dibling...

I think Barry is the better player but I'm quite torn on who to start next weekend. I'd leave it up to Davey as to whether he thinks it'd be a good or bad thing to throw him in there. I want him starting pretty much every league match afterwards though.

Time on the training ground paying off I think. Missed the endorphin rush of goals and a win but now that the dust has settled that was our best team performance this season, and we were still having to play Garner at LB. Mykolenko back, Barry to start starting in the league (after the derby?)...

Literally what for lmao

This is a hall of famer

Thought this was maybe his best attacking display at RB? Showed some cute feet and passing in the final third.

Agreed, thought that through ball was just really well defended by Mings. Barry would have had to absolutely demolish Mings to get a clean shot or pass away there, not holding it against him that he didn't

Agreed we'd have won with them two but Richie scored 5 goals in his first season in the prem at the same age Barry is. People saying we need a new striker when we've seen about 3 minutes of the one we just bought is doing my head in ha
