2025/26 Beto

[Neiler]

I doubt we will take a chance on 2 new strikers, in one window. Time will tell?

I think he will be sold and we wil only sign one to replace him.

He got the opurtunity to be the senior striker at the club this year and largely fluffed it, despite recent good form.

 

[Vaughan]

he must know moyes doesnt really fancy him, and the club has tried to improve on him in the last two windows and were ready to sell him in january

yet he gives his all and is just made up to play for us

love the guy

hope we flog barry and keep him to go alongside whoever we throw money at in the summer

Be amazed if he’s here next season mate.

Based on Moyes’ reactions when he loses the ball, tend to agree.

Obviously the goals are great and they can paper over things, but his hold up play is still abysmal despite what I read in here today. Compare him to his counterpart today, just in that category, and he’s not even close and never will be.

Absolutely correct. Far tooooo many peoplez getting caught up in a purple patch and ignoring the other 99% of his time at this club.

That said, if this club starts next season with only 2 stikers on the book (whoever they may be) I'll be furious. No other team in the Premier league would contemplate such a thing. (Not 2 seasons in a row).

Methinks in the summer, Beto will be moved on and two strikers will be brought in to supplement Barry.

If and its still a big If we make Europe he is a ideal squad player

 

[blulouie]

Will be flogged in the summer IMO.

Theres more chance Barry will be sold in the summer.
I really dont think he can hack it this level , his attitude would need a major change and i cant see that happening any time soon.
Looked like he didnt want to be there today.

You mean Thiago ?

Apart from the pen and a goal that really wasnt his what did he do ?
Tarks just used him like a ragdoll today , cant think of one thing he actually done.

 

[HTCHERO]

I'd love to know who others would have bought for the same price, wage, and wanted to even play for us. Didn't Moyes basically say most of his top targets didn't want to touch us?

All about whether he gets a new contract.

Its weird we seem to be leaving contract extensions to the last minute.

Beto is good when the ball is in front of him.

Beto is not going to hold up the ball well.

Moyes relies on the centre forward holding the ball up.

Seems pretty clear to me that he wont be getting a new contract and we'll be moving him on.

When we get into europe, and depending on which of the european competitions, we will need someone like Beto to dominate games in the say the conference and europa leagues. Very rare to see strikers who like the club they play for. Him and that eto'o story still is a nice read.

It might not mean a lot to many. But if Beto comes on in the 85th minute and another player scores to grab a point or a win he celebrates like he's scored.
I dont see that with Barry.
The point to that is i feel both are fairly limited. But at least one looks more interested in the team than himself. I personally think thats quite a big thing and for me he gets the nod for that reason.

Get Barry out the door and let Beto compete with the new striker.

Get both out the door and get a a couple of new ones.
I like Beto for his attitude, but he isn't Good enough if we want to go up a level.
Barry has done ok for a first season but his attitude seems a bit suspect , don't get the feeling he gets the club or really wants to be here, got moise kean vibes.
Saying that who would. Pay a decent fee for them?

 

[Lob]

He is scoring goals and getting stuck in. All I want in a striker tbh. Keep it up Beto. Better than Barry.

i think this is really important

let’s say for arguments sake we sign Delap in the summer, he goes straight into the side, and hopefully makes the shirt his own

Beto would likely then start the conference league games pre new year

and he’d give everything every time and bag a good few goals too, and be in good form and sprits if we need to call upon him in the league

barry would throw his toys out the pram and delete everton stuff off his instagram account
