BREAKING NEWS: View: A recent sensation from Everton might take the place of a big-money failure in the senior squad.
Youssef Chermiti, an Everton adolescent, may have been dismissed in the middle of the week, but his performance would have made Sean Dyche very cautious.
The manager of the Toffees has witnessed Dominic Calvert-Lewin go 20 games without scoring while Beto, who was purchased for a cool $25 million (or more, according to Sky Sports), has had a difficult time adjusting to life in the Premier League.
This season, in 21 league appearances, the Portuguese attacker has managed just one goal, underperforming his xG by 2.48.
Additionally, that goal didn’t really matter because the Toffees defeated Newcastle 3-0.
Was Chermiti’s time with Everton shorter than anticipated?
This season, Chermiti—who also relocated to Goodison Park in the summer—has been Dyche’s third or fourth strike option.
Being a relative unknown, many were curious if he would be fighting with Calvert-Lewin for a starting spot. He was signed before Beto.
Although it hasn’t happened yet, there’s a potential the management will make a significant alteration in the coming weeks.
Chermiti might add vigor to the Everton assault.
The 19-year-old made headlines when he scored twice against the Fulham under-21s in the middle of the week before being sent off for dissent.
A red card is never a good indication, but in this case it indicates that Chermiti was still determined to continue and score even if they were winning 3-1.
Give the former Sporting CP forward more playing time; the team has been lacking goals and has been depending on “incredible” finishes from players like Amadou Onana.
The Liverpool Echo reports that he won’t face a suspension for the match against West Ham, and that removing Beto from the matchday roster could serve as a warning to him to turn things around before it’s too late.
In other Everton news, previously unreleased video of a Toffees player against Brighton has stunned Alan Shearer.
