We all know he took a bit of time to get used to the league and get going, he has popped up here and there with a few goals and I be forever grateful for the goal he scored at Villa this season to give us our first league win there since they went down in 2016 but overall, he hasn’t really done enough.
I can't say I was ever particularly impressed by him at Villarreal last season & wasn't convinced when we signed him, hoping he would improve after arriving but other than the odd moment it just hasn't happened for him here.
Add in the Arsenal scenes etc, I can't see much of a future here for him.
Bang on fella.. More and more games go by Barry just seems way out of his depth...
1 solid game or appearance in every 8/10.. and it's simply not good enough. Most of the time he looks disinterested and doesn't want to even be here! Maybe homesick, like some players often get?
As you say, really not sure we'd get any takers for him in the summer...
Very much looking like another Moise Keane type player.. Not suited to the PL, but may thrive somewhere in Europe at another team. Maybe send him out to our sister club, Roma, for next season might be an option.
He’s such a sluggish and disinterested player. Antithetical to how an Everton player, especially striker, should be playing.
Iliman at the false 9 could allow for some of our other wing options to come into the team.
The Arsenal debacle killed it for me. Didn’t look arsed on Sunday. Would have rather put someone else in. Get shut and move on.
Unfortunately, it hasn't worked out.
