2024/25 Beto

[Bilko]

I'd play Keane up front first.

Whilst it’s hard to disagree that his technical ability is pretty poor you can’t knock his effort, obviously we need bodies in and quick but I’ve seen DCL offer much much less than Beto did yesterday

DCL does much more for the wider team than Beto. Beto is just another times Straq

 

[Chrismac]

He reminds me of when Usain Bolt played a few games for that aussie team.. technically gash, reactions to what's going on gash, every now and then his complete unorthodox style confuses defenders and he causes havoc but once he then needs to show composure turns gash.
We had a big farmer lad come to our training years ago, strong as a bull and lightning fast, we put him on a few times and he scored a few... fizzled out quickly and like a heavyweight boxer throwing haymakers from the 1st bell he had zero stamina.
That's Beto, if he was Irish not Portuguese he'd be a farmer

Not fit to lace Straq's boots he's closer to naisse/kone levels

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

His fitness was a concern yesterday. I can live with his 2nd and 3rd touches both being tackles. But running about should be the bare minimum expectation.

When was it the last time DCL bullied defenders?

 

[JJK]

Won a competition to play professional football this lad.

 

[JimmyJeffers]

He's clearly not a technically gifted footballer but I feel a lot of our fans just refuse to acknowledge that most players need a run of games to build up form.

I don’t know about this. Plenty of strikers make their name when coming on from the bench. Would love to be wrong as he seems a nice guy and can’t fault his effort.

 

[CielosGrises]

May just have to play him now - assuming there is nobody else in the market.

 

[Amokachi1995]

He's not great is he? But he does have a useful habit of making things happen.

 

[Tramps_mate]

Beto to Roma...

 

[JLW]

Beto to Roma...

Thats only happening if we have someone lined up

 

[jceverton]

If only we played League One reserve defenders every week.

Doesn’t matter, you can either make those runs or play those passes or you can’t irrespective of the opposition. Watch Beto play with Gerry in Italy and the goals he scored there. Same exact thing, Beto makes the run Gerry can play the pass. Apart from Armstrong the other player in the squad who can play those passes is Lindstrom. One of them has to play in Doucoure role to get best out of Beto

Remember Dom tormented the RS in last years derby
Honestly think Van Dijk and Konate will have a day off with Beto.
He's just too sloppy
