Barry Vs Beto

[salmon fingers]

It's so difficult to judge players after such a short time with the team. We know what we have with Beto but Barry its to early to judge and does our style work against our strikers at times? I don't know but I would prefer to give Barry time and opportunity see plenty of strikers struggle at the start of their career mateta being one.

Barry is dreadful, what a waste of money.

He’s under way more pressure than what was intended because Beto has been so poor and we are looking for him to step up!
Ideal world is he’d be a bench player getting minutes in controlled manner.

I’ve gone for Barry to start purely because I think Beto can make a good impact player off the bench with his chaotic determination when up against tired legs.- as shown today!

It's like a slow bicycle race between two tortoises, this, but even in that context Beto is currently way ahead. He is at least affecting games occasionally. Barry looks lost. I can't really understand how our manager and our competent professionals have brought in so many players who seemingly cannot make an immediate impact - or even show signs of making ANY impact this season. Barry, Dibling, Röhl, and Aznou... That's well over 70m of...potential. I'm not sure we can afford such indulgence.

At least we’ve got enough with starting 11 to be comfortably mid table. Difference this season is we will probably not be in a relegation fight.- so could pay off within a couple of years…. Hopefully!!

Just let them play themselves in and out of the team. Moyes has been right to switch them up when one plays terribly. It’s the only option until we get someone new.

I just think Barry looks too lax out there. His first touch results in a large number of lost balls. Some ill-advised passes as well. I’m not seeing the hunger. Could be a personality thing. But strikers usually share that go for goal and fight for everything trait.

What the hell are people seeing with Barry?
I'm trying to give him a chance, but he's failing at the very basics that you would expect / want of an Everton player.
I'm not sure we will see him again in an Everton shirt.

I think Moyes couldn’t believe what he was seeing. Hopefully he saw enough to know not to start him again. Beto isn’t always easy on the eyes with his play but he fights and disrupts. He looked pissed coming in and ready to prove a point.

Not sure Moyes is doing either of them any good, is he purposely trying to destroy both their confidence. We got lucky today we weren't at the races at all.

 

[Jebus_lives]

He’s actually not similar to Beto. Doesn’t have his pace, desire or physicality.

In terms of rawness.

 

[Walken]

It's not even close, play Beto until Barry is ready or there is another solution and stop with this stupid 45mins and you're off at cf crap

 

[JimmyJeffers]

Quite a rollercoaster this thread

 

[Del-boy]

They’re both crap.

Think Tyler and Barry get a reality check from the manager there today, he starts them they offer nothing and he hooks them for two hungrier humbler players, imo. Need a little less self belief and a little more graft and nouse before they should be starting again. A great opportunity to man manage them into better Everton players now

Whenever Barry is on, I don't get vibes he'll scare up a goal. In spite of Beto's flaws, I have hope he'll pull a goal out unexpectedly.
