Summer transfer window.

Couldn't disagree more, tbh neither of them are great but Barry is taking some unfair stick from fans, most of whom wouldn't know a decent player even if someone pointed one out to them. Also its hard to judge any striker properly in this setup really as its woeful in terms of creativity and support for them.
Yes the set up by the Mananger, gives strikers no chance really. I know you had his XG at 6.4 I listened to a pod about breaking down the numbers
And they had him at 5.4 after Bournemouth so according to them he was out performing his XG prior to Bournemouth

One thing he needs to improve on is his physicality, he’s 6ft 5 and needs to show it and be more aggressive, I think he needs to improve on a few things, but would love to see him get stuck in more
Also he was good in the air in
Spain, but what chance have you got when Myko and O’Brien are your full
Backs.
 
I hope you both win for Everton's sake.

He wins a lot of headers when the ball gets banged up to him but we don’t have anyone running beyond him for a flick on, or getting round him to pick up the second ball

Barely makes a difference if he wins it or not as we concede possession anyway
 
Do your eyes see Delap scoring more goals, getting in better scoring positions, setting up more shots, getting in better scoring positions, completing more passes than Barry? Because if so your eyes are lying to you.
No...my eyes see Barry falling over when no one is around him, stumbling with the ball, not moving to the ball on the odd occasion it is passed into the area, getting pushed off the ball easily, sulking on the bench:) Not interested in arguing with you and your stats...Delap is having a crap year but im pretty sure that a lot of big teams were willing to throw big money at him last year. I dont even like him, just having a hard time listening to anyone tell me that Barry is an EPL center forward.
