2024/25 Beto

This fella really frustrates me. He could easily be a top striker but never quite gets there. If we had more time i would be tempted to loan him out but we have no depth and Barry is going to need to be managed gently in a new country and league. Need another striker imo.

Should've scored twice last night had Alcaraz and Keane not ruined his opportunities. Unlucky with the offside goal too.

Was disappointed in Barry`s little cameo last night. The only thing he really did was go down a bit easy and injure himself.
Beto had a few good chances, one just offside and then Keane and Alcaraz sort of got in his way. I`d be more frustrated with him if he wasn`t getting into positions to score, but will be expecting him to be ready to hit the ground running at Leeds.

He was robbed of a goal imo. Looked on. If it wasn't united and there was VAR good chance it was overturned

I just keep thinking of that Brentford game where I think he missed 3 or 4 one on ones

Didn't miss any of them. The keeper saved them.

The offside goal? He carries that round in his kitbag. How many times have we seen him do that?

Wouldn’t be amazed to see him go back to Italy and us get a new striker in.

I worry a little bit about this fella still, he was looking better at the back end of last season at holding the ball up etc, which was good.
But when he's bad, he stinks the place out, I don't think he's going to be our first choice next season.

I think if anyone does go it will be Chermitti. None of our strikers will set the world slight but Beto and Barry need better competition while he can go out play and develop further.
