2024/25 Beto

[Mitch Ward's Minder]

I thought both 1st half chances we fluffed, they were straight at the GK, the first one why did he not go round the GK.

The first one he tried to go past the goalie by dinking it down the left, goalie was wise to it. Second one he just hit it straight at him, and the third was a difficult angle to get a good height to beat the goalie and get on target. Just an off night, I'm more annoyed about conceding on 45+4

Yeah I don't get it, even peak R9 Ronaldo never scored every game and he is quite possibly the best ever running forward to ever exist in human history

Weirdly R9 gets forgotten about even though IMO he was far superior to R7 and Messi. He could do it on a cold night in Stoke

 

[Igrok]

Hopefully he will come out stronger… these were pretty bad misses…

These were the types that every striker has to put away…

He was going for 4 goals in 4 games on the bounce. He'll be ok.

 

[Lanolin]

Yeah this.

The first chance I think he messed up but the other two he did well, controlled the ball perfectly, got away from his defender and they were just two very good saves from the keeper, it happens.

I thought the second one was poor aswell personally, he just never really got himself in a position to do anything other than what he did, he didn't create any sort of angle so it was fairly obvious he was just going to hit it straight and it was literally straight at the keeper. Like you say though, it happens. People miss chances, it's part of the game, it's all about the split between the chances you miss and the ones you score, and he's doing alright on that front recently.

Very unlucky not to get on the scoresheet and extend a superb run. In his defense, Flekken had a very good game in one on one situations.

I think it's a fair point to be honest He seems like a confidence player and he did look a bit like the first miss had got into his head a bit last night. I hope he's able to just put it behind him and carry on where he left off, but not everyone can.

He could easily have had a hattrick and ended up with nothing, but look at the movement and running that got him into those positions.
If he had scored the first one then he would probably score all three.

If he keeps his shots on the deck he couldve had a hattrick. He's a different player under moyes. Havent seen an Everton striker leaving a defence for dead with his pace for a while. Showing good signs.

Think he was trying to but went the wrong way (his left keeper's right)

So much space low, between the legs, on the 2nd. I'm not sure he was even looking up, which seems odd given his other finishes.

He was never keeping up that goal scoring pace, but would have been nice for him to pot one of those last night.

 

[Ed_Winchester]

Should have potted at least one of those chances, but he's so genuine the bloke.
No one holds their head in hands like Beto!

Victor was the Master of head in hands

from reddit obviously.

I still like him a lot. Makes chances out of nothing which not a lot of strikers do
