Re: Beto
He's not playing well no.
I've seen him play to a high standard (albeit in a different league), with a team trying to play some football rather than just hitting the big man with long balls.
Despite the evidence so far, I really don't think he's shit.

Re: Beto
Physical tools, but head and feet are miles off.
Hope it works out for him but unless he had an absolutely dramatic turn around in level the fee is just too high and weighing heavily in the cons column.
Be very surprised if he's here next year.

He's a battering ram, if you get him firing he'll be an absolute handful, but he'll still do frustrating things... He's not blessed with great technical ability, so he'll quite easily look both a menace and like an amateur in the same game.
Issue right now is his touch is poor and his movement is terrible... I think the former will improve as he adjusts to the league, and the latter can be coached.
I don't think he'll score many but even today when he was pretty poor, we still played well because we had him as a focal point... Something we never ever saw if Maupay came in to the team.
So he's an improvement already (yes I know Maupay scored today but he was never going to for us) and that's purely because he's able to put himself about a bit, so once he's adapted I expect he'll be acceptable if not better for a DCL backup.
