2025/26 Thierno Barry

This. He’s not been plucked from the league 1 after 7 first team appearances. Loads of development to come obviously but he’s not some kid from the academy who’s never played against a tough strong streetwise defence. Bizarre how much time people want to give him jogging round FF before he will somehow magically become “ready”. If he has a run of games now, misses chances and doesn’t hold the ball up, it won’t be because he isn’t ready, it will just be his level. And we will try to get the best out of it.

It’s really stupid to try and gauge a players mindset, and impossible to be accurate. But he really does look unhappy. Total utter nonsense I know. But just the vibe he gives off. Would like to see a bit of arrogance and fire from him. Certainly will win less than 50% of headers from punts forward, but maybe jumping for ALL of them, might at least force a mistake. Particularly at Everton, fans and managers will have infinitely more patience if you are visibly putting everything into it.

Anyway, brace on Tuesday and a goal and assist next week and we can stop guessing.

Started similar at villareal was a slow start think is a mix players also not looking to find him with some of his runs he makes. Just not a link up between him and the other attackers. I think he has good hold up like seen vs brighton but agree like to see abit more effort/ fight from him. Still feel once he gets that first goal can really give him confidence and kick on

Just Google striker transfers summer window 2025,then just pick a few, then look at their YouTube videos and see the ones who can trap a ball and win a few headers. It's not difficult honestly.😉

I repeat, I was asking you, who would these players be that would come here, apart from wilson, who is a walking sick note, no others was coming here. 🤔

Let me think...who would I prefer wearing our number 9 shirt...Beto or Pablo Alcácer 🤔 it's a tough one.🙄
Maybe try a bit harder (with basic grammar).

How much did Newcastle pay for Woltemade? He's also fairly unproven and a work in progress.

Considering we had to spread our money this summer I think we did well to get Barry done for a relatively good price. He will come good this season, just needs a goal.

Hope you're right. I watched him a few times over here last season and he looked okay. Maybe he will come good, but for me the signs aren't good at the moment. His basics are all over the show.

Give him the same sort of run Beto had then we might see just how good - or not - he is.

Deffo on a wind up here 😂.

Alcacer being the striker who scored 8 in 25 games in the UAE in his best season in the last 3 years?

Barry will come good and we will have a 65/70m striker. We couldn’t afford to buy one this summer for that money and leave the rest of the team derelict.
