chicagoblue Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 It's on Wikipedia lads, written in stone that. "On 25th August 2023 Beto signed for Everton and was given the number 14 shirt. Then handed in a transfer request" Haha, it actually appears to be getting updated in real time. Has he already handed in his transfer request to get away from us? dunlopp9987, Newty82 and Matt 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newty82 Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Yeah, we surely can't be getting Beto and Che, can we? It wouldn't make sense. Unless we know Maupay is going? Maybe even DCL . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicagoblue Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 On a more serious note, I really hope he's a bit of a late bloomer. His record is a bit underwhelming. Really just two half decent seasons in Italy. I suppose 1 in 3 in Italy isn't bad, but be hard to expect him to come in an better than in the premier league.

I don't know him, but the profile appears to fit. I'd repeat my earlier comment. If we secure this guy, it will have been an excellent transfer window. Any chance we can still show Maupay, Gbamin, and Gomes to the exit? Gwlad and Matt Tiger 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's giving me Sandro vibes Think he has a bit more about him than Sandro did - especially the physicality for the league. I watched the game against Juve where he had moments of holding the ball up well & has a bit of skill. I don't think he will be a 20 goal a season striker but he should be able to hold it up, run in behind & is definitely a presence in the box which without DCL we don't have.

As always it’s important to look at the minutes rather than just appearances. He’s closer to 1 in 2 than 1 in 3. Decent over there. 1 in 3 for us would be great.

I think his stats are pretty good. Could argue they are better than DCL. A player who could actually be serious competition for DCL for the starting striker role.

DCL has been injured for 2years other than that his stats are no better for me he s playing in a lesser league so the jury is out on this 1. Adams was have the price.

Pretty sure we have been for most of Kenwrights sole reign. Maybe not £200m, but the debt value at the time was just as crippling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
