Getting down the line, with speed, from direct play and putting it in the box for a big centre forward to smash it home is 100% "the Everton way" and the crowd laps it up.
Yeah but we have Beto up top and his heading is as erratic as the rest of his game. He's as likely to completely miss the ball as he is to power one in past the keeper.
I think the fact we aren't looking for a cross merchant probably shows Moyes understands that this wouldn't be the best way to use Beto, and I think that's something to be applauded.
Make space for him and he'll score, but we can't use him as a DCL type player because he doesn't thrive on crosses at all.

Guardian are reporting that Southampton are asking for £50m for him. As much as I was initially excited by his potential that is too much. Walk away
£50m is ridiculous. I think he is a fantastic talent but that’s all it is at the moment. I would say £30m plus add ons is max. Anything more than that and you are overpaying.
