2025/26 Thierno Barry

[Nyhus]

Scoring 2 tap ins in one game after not scoring for 2 months isn't scoring regularly.

Thats not what happened in the city game. Not scoring any from august till december, to then scoring 8 spread out from december to may seems regular to me.

Doesn't matter imo. Fact is he scored twice. Give him another opportunity. Beto has hardly been outstanding. We need better than both, but always go with the one who impressed most recently.

So if we stuck Travers up front and the ball bounced off his face and into the net he should play simply because that happened?

 

[MACCA75]

You cannot overlook a player who comes on and scores twice in 30 minutes. Therefore, regardless of his previous performances, he must start against Palace.

Yes you can. We’ll start Beto.

Beto didn’t score because Rohls cross deflected away from him. Barry scored because Rohls shot deflected straight to him.

It’s ultra fine margins. Beto’s all round physicality and better movement still make him the better option.

Pretty much!

Here are the league leaders for goals scored.

Since Barry and Beto are almost never on the pitch at the same time - one starts the game, and the other subs around the 70-minute-mark or so - let's consider them as a single player.

That player, the Everton Striker of the Particular Moment, would have 16 goals (they have 8 each on the season).

That would give said amalgamation the third-highest goal total among pure strikers, trailing only Haaland and Thiago and ahead of such as Joao Pedro, Gyorkeres, DCL, Welbeck, Ollie Watkins, and Etitike.

for each of their individual failings, that's impressive. It's also a pure head scratcher. What to do?

 

[McCallsVolley]

Also. Do not take pens.

Sell them both and by a Thierno Beto hybrid

Also no penalties

Also no penalties

Not surprised after seeing the standard of them in the Sunderland shootout

Doesn't hurt to have Barry itching to come on and make an impact again anyway.
Beto will soften them up a bit for him

Never want to see him play a single minute for Everton again. A disgrace of a transfer, signed off on by our genius manager.

You're such a meme Butters.

Sounds good but those other players besides the top two have not played 90min week in week out at all.
It does show once again when look at things objectively our strikers are not as bad as some people think

 

[Mr Happy]

You're such a meme Butters.

Therein lies the typical fickle footy fan. Literally no integrity let alone loyalty.

 

[DanB90]

You're such a meme Butters.

Unnuanced hyperbole at its finest.

No ones arsed don't go in the away end at any ground if you support the home team...

So attacking someone for supporting an opposition team is okay in 2026?
