2024/25 Beto

9/10 it’s a regulation save by any GK.

Bar that, he was very poor today.

Thank you for this laugh mate.

I’d say that’s nailed on after Moyes’ comments on MOTD. If he was a 19 year old and you could develop him, unfortunately he’s not a 19 year old. Or words to that effect.

Correct conclusion, if a buyer can be found.

Crazy if that's the case.

Well that’s not true is it, or he would have more than 8 goals

I understand you're intentionally obtuse but I was saying that every week he does score is a good one... Obviously

Well done to him and I’m over the moon, because it means we can get a lot more money back than we would have got in January when the club were looking to sell him. Excited to see who’re new number 9 will be

"I got him wrong"

You don't even need to type it lads you can just copy and paste that. I made it easy for you.

There's no need to persist with silly posts about his control at Chelsea or how much PSR sense it makes to sell him and re-sign the striker we have that doesn't score.

You can just copy and paste that and nobody's going to be bothered that you're really disappointed he is scoring goals.

Don't think Moyes rates him

Why not?
He started ahead of DCL, Chermetti and Broja (where's he, injured?)
Thought he really put a shift in today, worked hard. Between him and Alcaraz for MOTM for me.
Be madness to sell him this Summer.

PSR has nowt to do with it. If you buy for 30m and then 6 years later sell for 30m how much profit have you made

Well if you look at it that way, you’ve lost a ton of money.

Interest and inflation, player acquisition costs, salaries, plus the club has been wildly unprofitable during his stint.

But that’s a strange way of looking at buying and selling players.

Moyes very quickly realized that punting long, straight balls up to Beto was pointless and that he would do best with balls in behind the defense on the deck. Something that was blatantly obvious to anyone watching him. Beto has then rewarded that tactic with more goals than a forward has scored for us in ages. Yes, he misses efforts that he should be slotting and he sometimes looks like he doesn't know what his legs are doing but he scores and we have been desperately short of them. We'd be mad to get rid.

We should let DCL go and sign a new first choice forward with Beto as a good second option.

This is the ultimate second guessing post . All made up in your head

Be crazy to sell Beto the cost of a new striker who scores 10 to 15 a year could be 50 million and Delap who is everyone's new fav has 12 goals in a more attacking side than Everton.

And Delap has been on the pitch every week, unlike Beto...

The haters on here against Beto are thick as...

 

[Haydn]

Answer my question. Buy for 30m and 6 tears later sell for 30m. What profit in real terms have you made.

£30 million if you have already written off (amortised) his initial purchase cost.

You would have already have charged the initial cost to yourself over those six years. It’s paper profit, but how business works.

Chelsea saw the gap and gave players mega long contracts, meaning they need to make higher prices for anyone they sell.

By all means, go out, buy Delap but don't sell Beto.

Very good thread this evening.

ITs crazy how angry some people are.

I watched Everton win today, a crap LB scored, a crap CB scored another and a terrible Striker fluked a goal and some people are utterly livid.

Crazy.

I thought Jiminez took his alright but i can see how you would think he fluked it.
