2024/25 Beto

[Timbucktoo]

Like to see him get more then 10 mins at the end of a game.

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.

When a player leaves it until the final year of his contract their mind cant be totally focused on the club they are playing with. DCL is 28 and is looking at all his options and knows that if another club offers the deal he wants he can take it while knowing Everton are ready to give him a deal if those offers don`t come in.
Beto gives it everything when he gets his chance and is under contract for next season.
I dont understand why we buy a CF, have them under contract, and yet leave them sitting on the bench while the guy thats running his deal down is starting every week.
