2025/26 Beto

[degsy]

As Peter says...'He gets on base'

 

[blue in oxford]

honest player and the best we can afford
what will lesson the pressure on him is that other players now look like scoring

 

[DualityNSNO]

A lot of you called for him to go back to KFC during his first few games, I hope you remember your transgressions.

 

[malfosse]

quick look at the minutes beto has played each game since moyes took over compared to the amount of goals beto has scored.

If my maths is correct beto is averaging a goal to match ratio of 0.54

Last year in the prem only salah, haalland, isaak and woods had a higher ratio.

He might be clumsy and weird but the man gets goals if played.

Get the ball to him in a good position and I fancy him to score.

Ok, ok...he's moved up to Chick-fil-A, I admit it.

It is quite a move up to be fair to him

 

[Charlie Sweet]

hope your right but he misses more than he scores.

He's improving though

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

hope your right but he misses more than he scores.

Probably true of all strikers. More important to be getting in the position to miss than just being a perfect robot finisher.

 

[Swartzy]

His vital role in the 2nd goal was an air shot.

Please don't kid yourself that it was a dummy.

That said he was in the right place for the vital first goal.

And what brilliant air shot it was, if he had connected we wouldn't have scored..

So like I said, a vital role in the goal

 

[TimHowardsBeardJuice]

Maybe the likes of Grealish KDH Dibling and Ndiaye are clever enough to figure out how to serve it up for him the way he likes it…. Now that we have a real midfield hopefully we won’t be bypassing it with punts from the keeper

 

[Efcjake]

@PercyPlant are you still raging he scored mate?

Seems to be doing fairly well per his Xg. Our most threatening forward.

 

[Rob17896]

do you think so i be suprise if he gets 10 this season.

I disagree. Plenty of flaws but can put it away. The service he will now get far exceeds last season.

 

[Rob17896]

Bottom line ....best we have right now ! Works hard and has now bagged two !
He will out score DCL for sure ! Get behind him ....

Outscore DCL! He already has

 

[Scarecrow]

Feed the ball to his feet (when he's onside) and he'll usually hit the target with his first touch. The rest is down to the 'keeper.

When he takes a second touch, best organise the defence..

As Peter says...'He gets on base'

His defect...is that he throws funny
