Re: Thierno Barry

Re: Thierno Barry
To be honest, if it was the other way, people would use the stats against him.Shogun wrote: Tue Nov 03, 2026 4:04 pm I think he's 4 in 9 in the league which is good, if he ended up 16/17 goals then we'd be buzzing!
xG 6.37 and 4 goals isn't great mind.
Haaland 9 goals from xG 6.55
Isak 6 goals from xG 4.35
Jackson 5 goals from xG 2.31
Pedro 5 goals from xG 3.03
DCL 4 goals from xG 4.03
Mbeumo 4 goals from xG 4.24
Which raises the debate of is the xG a result of what he's doing or a result of what the team is doing?
Look at Jackson for instance, it could be argued he is exceeding his expected goals, therefore, his luck can run out anytime soon as his goal rate drops.
Whereas, with Barry, some optimists could argue that his goal rate is more likely to increase than decrease.

Re: Thierno Barry
He’s got a lot of good attributes. Just hope he gets stronger and a more assured finisher as he grows with us.

Sunderland wasn't it? Him and Beto our two star strikers missed.Goaljira wrote: Thu Nov 05, 2026 9:06 pm What was his pen miss in the cup last year like? Ive wiped it from memory.

Re: Thierno Barry
Regardless of the misses, if he keeps scoring at this rate in this league, he’ll be off to the likes of Atletico for £80m in the summer. Half our fanbase will be laughing that we’ve had their pants down while we court Callum Wilson and Barry is scoring for fun in the CL.

Callum Wilson will also be playing in Europe, so not sure why he’d lower his standards to usGranite wrote: Fri Nov 06, 2026 1:46 pm Regardless of the misses, if he keeps scoring at this rate in this league, he’ll be off to the likes of Atletico for £80m in the summer.

Re: Thierno Barry
Almost scored the worst hatrick ive ever seen tonight. A remarkable thing to say, but long may this crazyness last.

Re: Thierno Barry
The thing about good chances / poor finishing strikers is that the latter part rarely lasts.

Let's mark the occasion... Barry out muscled a defender!
Delighted for him tonight, 2 goals and an assist. Made amazing strides since last season.

Re: Thierno Barry
Lest we forget the assist. Slide rule pass we'd be creaming over if a Spanish midfielder did it.
