2025/26 Thierno Barry

[T LEAFE]

Can we re sign Jigsaw?

 

[HKContractDave]

Eh I thought the (relatively) rawness was already reflected in the price? To get a ready-made, plug-and-play striker you'd be looking at £40m upwards

 

[BigBeto1]

Worrying from a scouting perspective if this is true

 

[chopper6]

Of course he’ll be showing signs of rawness!

He’s 21 ffs, playing in the hardest league in the world

This doesn’t worry or surprise me.

I’d be more worried if this surprised those at the club. What were they expecting?!

 

[BigBeto1]

60 odd million worth of strikers and Moyes doesn’t fancy any of them. Great work

This is the reality, look at striker market this summer. Imo United have paid twice the money for potential in Sesko, so not really feeling too bad at all about the money spent on Barry personally.

The full quote from the article is - "Moyes believes that blooding him in more gradually, as is the current plan, will allow him to fulfil his undoubted potential, even if it does rely on Beto to perform a great deal better than he did on Monday."

Sounds like plan was never for him to go straight into starting, if we've made an error its more likely putting too much faith in Beto to consistently deliver.

 

[Pabbers]

Jesus.....these rumours about him are nuts!!

Its mental being a blues aint it, we just can't have anything nice at all.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

The squad isn't in a position to spend 30 mil on a work in progress.

It's no wonder Moyes's gob has been tripping him.

It's like your missus giving to a list for shopping and you bringing her back something she didn't want.

 

[hetion]

Moyes is starting to drive me a bit nuts. Barry is a good striker. Yes he's a bit raw and has room to develop. But he's perfectly fine to lead the line for a mid-table prem side, which we are. No you can't also throw huge parts of our wage budget at a known-quantity 29 year old you big baby. Develop the player.

 

[Frenk]

So it begins

Yet you could argue that he has been playing at a higher level than where Everton are right now. Absolutely barmy the people we have working at the club. What on earth are we playing at, bunch of amateurs.

 

[N0L1M1TK]

Without being disrespectful you could tell he was miles off it before we signed him.

An absolute waste of funds.

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

You know its bad when he's standing out as raw in training when his competition is Beto

People still slagged Rom's touch and link play offwhen he was netting 20 plus goals. It's just the way of things.

Miles higher. Would we come 5th in La Liga on 70 points and get CL?
