Confirmed Signing Beto

[Eggs]

I suppose he can't be making many passes if he's constantly lashing the ball into the net

…fingers crossed. He doesn’t seem that clever type that links play or does one-twos.

Hi Beto, welcome to Everton!....P.S. Do you know what "Boooooo' means?

 

[JimmyK]

….misleading? All I said was we bid £27m for Beto and £30m for Bilal Toure. Both were transferred last season for £6m and £8m respectively at pretty much exactly the same time we paid £12m for Maupay. The point being there is value out there.

I really hope Beto is terrific, I like him. Hopefully he’s more of a £27m than a £6m striker.

I’m not sure if you’re just a bit slow on the uptake or a very bad wind up but you’ve been told about a hundred times that he wasn’t available for cheap last summer when we signed maupay because it was a buy obligation that had been set one year earlier why don’t you post another picture of a dog or make another joke about a player thread the whole forum thinks it’s so funny when you do that.

 

[GrimbolandBlue]

He's the first player since Richarlison left who seems to have a good attitude. Priceless IMO, wish him the best for all our sakes

I'm slightly optimistic about this lad. Like a Lukaku Mark 2 which would be gratefully received if he can manage at least double figures in goals. Not too much to ask I know.

I'm splitting hairs but Beto wasn't available last year for £6m so it is misleading. He was available the previous season for that amount. There is always value out there in hindsight too. Zat's hindsight team worth £500m could be assembled for under £50m but this ignores all the players he wants to buy that turn out to be complete flops.

The only reason he doesn't play one-twos is that the back of the net doesn't pass back

AMIRITE LADS!?

 

[Zatara]

…apologies, I got my conversion rate wrong. He was permanently transferred for £6m last summer.

....my point was to manage expectation on the lad.

ok, we‘re paying £27m for Beto, a player who moved to Udinese last summer on a permanent transfer for an agreed fee of £6m after being there on loan for a season . Phew.

Once again, this is simply misleading or incorrect.

Beto moved to Udinese two years ago. The terms of the deal were a one year loan with an obligation to buy for €7mil upon completion of the loan.

Thus the deal was agreed two years ago. With the structure agreed only serving to postpone the first paymenf for 12months.

--He was not transferred 12months ago. It was 2 years ago due to the obligation clause and fee being confirmed then.

 

[Shevin Keedy]

I think @Eggs means we could have poached him

 

[Bungle]

You know when even Zat starts ragging you all over the shop it's been a bad morning and probably best to retreat and tell a nostalgic story about stadiums you've played in.

That might be the first time I've ever seen that on an internet forum.
