EvertonPuts on show Saturday
Beto scored two goals and assisted once from three shots and two chances created in Saturday's 3-0 win against Chelsea.
Analysis: Beto had himself a top performance Saturday, recording two goals with an assist while also adding on three shots on target, two key passes and winning four aerials against Chelsea. Since getting the start, he's been able to score three times in the last four starts, recording five shots on target, four key passes and making three successful dribbles in that span.
Scored against Newcastle
Beto scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 victory versus Newcastle United.
Analysis: Beto reacted quickly to finish a rebound from inside the box, marking his first start after eight Premier League matches without one. It was his fourth goal of the season, and while his 26 shots in 972 minutes do not reflect elite productivity, he took his opportunity well in this outing. Performances like this could open the door for another start in the next fixture against Burnley, who sit 19th, giving him a favorable chance to build on his momentum.
Equalizes in stoppage time
Beto scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Brighton.
Analysis: Beto replaced Thierno Barry in the 89th minute and equalized by converting the rebound in the 97th minute. This marked Beto's second goal in five consecutive substitute appearances. Thierno Barry is now clearly being preferred over Beto as the starting striker.
Scores off bench Sunday
Beto scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) in Sunday's 4-2 defeat against Brentford.
Analysis: Beto scored his second goal of the season Sunday, a header in the 66th minute assisted by Jack Grealish which cut the deficit to 3-1. He recorded three shots for just the second time this season as he played the entire second half after replacing Tyler Dibling at the break.
Back in starting XI
Beto had one shot (zero on goal) in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against Manchester City.
Analysis: Beto returned to the starting XI Saturday after he came off the bench last outing, seeing little success with only one shot registered in 75 minutes of play. He remains at one goal this season in eight appearances (six starts), coming five contests ago.
Ineffective in draw
Beto recorded four shots (zero on goal) in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Aston Villa.
Analysis: Beto did not register a shot on target across his 75 minutes of play Saturday as the Everton attack sputtered in a 0 - 0 draw versus Aston Villa. The striker's four shot attempts matched a team-high for the fixture and marked a single-appearance best for the forward this season. Through four appearances (three starts), Beto has attempted seven shots (one on goal).
Scores opener in 3-2 win
Beto scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 victory against Wolverhampton.
Analysis: Beto connected with Jack Grealish to score the opener of the game as Everton beat Wolves 3-2. Grealish got in behind the defensive line and Beto positioned himself in space in an onside position for the new signing to head it across to him. This was his first goal of the year, having not started the previous game, for Thierno Barry to take up the centre forward position. This was his only shot of the game.
Held to one shot
Beto generated one shot (zero on goal) in Monday's 1-0 defeat versus Leeds United.
Analysis: Beto was limited to just a single shot during the Premier League opener. He failed to do anything with the limited chances he got and looked off the pace for the opener. He didn't get much service from the team around him, as Everton played very defensively. Beto will need to be extremely efficient with limited chances if he wants any sort of consistent production this season.
