Not having that, Beckford got 8 goals in 34 appearances, currently double what Beto has.

I like to see him start now and then to quell the shouts. It’s not going to happen though.

Selective memory in here, not long ago started a game at u21 level and didn’t look levels above at all.
Plays like a lad who was serving kfc in his twenties. Loads of heart, decent physically - would be a good championship striker possibly.

I like that young Ferguson at Brighton TBH though when MOTD showed clips of 30 yards from our midfield playmakers standing off DCL - any Forward of any quality will be starved under Dyche - only when we went 442 we moved up - Dyches response our midfield is not good enough to play 4-4 2 .... I can't leave 2 players in there, they would get overrun ?
Pointless debating him if his role here is miniscule minutes and cameo parts. Goals v minutes is what i'm looking at and he's winning. No other club in the world shouts about a 9's "hold up play" as much as we do, i honestly don't get it. Fellainis hold up play was better than DCL's and as a none striker hit the net more. Broja can't get fit quick enough for me now.
Gutted - I am joyous, outplayed by Fulham & we managed a draw ..... & if Beto plays the next game - good luck to him .....Try and sound less gutted Joey
…..this squad is a bit like Groundhog Day. Beto wins us over for his attitude and a last minute goal but you just know he’ll get found out as a starter and DCL will return. It’s a bit similar with Harrison; dropped after a clanger at Villa, impresses as a sub against Palace but eventually reverts to type yesterday.
We have too many ordinary footballers.

I think the problem for Beto is, we don’t play to his strengths, no matter who is on the pitch we play long ball and expect the striker to be a target man. We need to be playing balls into his feet or into space behind. If we just lump it up to him with his back to goal, he’s not the guy who’s going to hold onto it and bring others into play
….he’s a willing runner when the ball is played behind the back four (makes me wonder why we bought him) but he’ll be very hit and miss in respect of what happens next. Can’t fault his application but he’s low on quality.

It would have been nice to see him get some time alongside Dom and not a CH (Keane).
Like Dom in a one on one ?
There is no doubt that DCL is starved of good service but I also think he looks a shadow of the player he was before his injury. He seems to have lost some of his mobility and pace and certainly seems to have lost some of his willingness to chase lost causes.
It is clear he is very low in confidence and maybe a couple of goals could change his whole game.
Regarding Beto, I think he is limited but sitting on the bench every week and not getting on the pitch hardly ever certainly makes it difficult for any player to come on and make an impact.
I think his attitude, work rate and obvious desire to do well has earned him the right to a start.
