A BBC Sport pundit criticizes an Everton player live on air for his actions against Forest.

Paul Robinson has slammed Everton ahead Beto for failing to score in a “half-empty” net all through the Toffees’ conflict with Nottingham Forest on Saturday 2 December.

Sean Dyche’s side ran out 1-0 winners at the City Ground thanks to a second-half strike from Dwight McNeil however wasted various high-quality chances to wreck the impasse in the first half, together with a dreadful omit from Beto.

The 25-year-old skied his effort from the centre of the penalty place after Odisseas Vlachodimos failed to declare a lengthy ball into the box and BBC Sport pundit Robinson used to be quick to slam the striker for failing to take the magnificent chance.

Speaking on BBC Radio five Live (2 December, 17:52) he said: “He ought to score, he simply ought to score. It’s any other long ball into the box and Everton are making no apologies for the way they’re playing today, they’re getting a lot of pleasure from putting the ball into the box.

“The ball falls to Beto, seven, eight yards out from goal. He hasn’t acquired an empty net, however it’s half-empty. He have to do a good deal better.”

Needs to do better

The signing of Beto was once finished with the intent of providing proper cover and competition for Dominic Calvert-Lewin as the variety nine at Goodison Park, however so far there has been little to advocate that the Portuguese forward has the fine to furnace Everton to safety.

Beto’s pass over on Saturday was once challenging to watch from an Everton standpoint as the 25-year-old had half of the internet to intention for with honestly nothing standing between him and his first-ever Premier League goal however failed to even hit the target.

If that risk falls to Calvert-Lewin there is no hazard that he would fail to hit the target, even with a range of bodies between him and the goal. It is clear that Beto is currently struggling for self belief and desperately wishes to rating one goal to enhance his morale.

Hopefully, he’ll subsequently open his account on Merseyside and then the desires will begin flowing for the 25-year-old. If Calvert-Lewin is sidelined for an extended length of time, Dyche will want his Portuguese forward to discover that goalscoring touch.
