2024/25 Beto

[DanB90]

When was the last time an Everton striker scored in 5 consecutive games? Lukaku maybe?

Think it was Tommy Allen in 1972.

The 5th game coincidentally was in the Benson and Hedges cup final, which saw the Toffees lift the coveted trophy for the second time.

Dom to start Ancelotti's full COVID season actually.

See I am fair!

 

[GOT milk?]

Its mad his contributions has us rocketing away from spiralling into relegation. Its Campell-esque.

But we are so accustomed to escaping relegation last 3 or 4 years that he won't be as revered for it.

Yup, Lukaku scored in 7 or 8 consecutive games when he was on loan with us.

Insane looking at it now tbh

4 wasn't it?

 

[Walken]

Scores again tomorrow and puts further distance between him and anyone thinking of coming for his starting spot.

We may have to make do in a few positions next season as we rebuild, he's make a very good case for striker not being a priority

A striker is, and should remain, a top priority regardless of how well Beto is doing. The time will return where he can't hit a cows arse with a banjo again. Nice to enjoy for now, but we need better, we need to improve in every area. This more than most.

Depends on the circumstances I suppose, we don't yet know what players will be staying, what options or funds will be available. It's not a one window overhaul

4 wasn't it?

Ahh one was a league cup match but still five in a row and 7 goals back then.

 

[Neiler]

4 away from PL double digits.

 

[BlueInNZ]

I hope he scores again v Brentford. I'm sure his confidence is at the point that he expects to score. Long may his run continue.

 

[PeregrineT]

Theres no way he scores in yet another match. Right? That would be insane.

We will need a striker, can't see DCL staying , not sure we will sign Broja due to his injury record.
I personally wouldn't buy him for that very reason and he wouldn't be that cheap.
The rest are kids honestly think we need two in.

Oh, I had it in my head (for no reason, mind ) that we're talking Prem only, but I'm quite wrong on that so yeh, DCL is the last one, you're right.

After the next game Beto will be competing with Lukaku tho, hopefully!

 

[blueblue]

We don't know if Beto is now showing us the player he really is or if he is a player in a purple patch that may not be repeated.

Those who watch him in training every day will probably have an opinion on that.

What is certain is that whatever we paid for him would now be recouped in full in the event of a sale and possibly a profit on top of that.

Remarkable the change in little over a month when he was being sold for whatever we could get.

You would wonder what SD is thinking about Beto and the Everton team in general now ?
