Everton fans will be worried about Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s injury, but concern may rise even more after Beto’s impact in the Toffees’ win over Brighton.
It was a monumental performance from Everton who have secured back-to-back wins for the first time this season after a 1-0 victory at Brighton.
Iliman Ndiaye’s penalty has given the club a massive boost in terms of their status in the Premier League.
A big negative saw Calvert-Lewin pull his hamstring 13 minutes in as David Moyes will certainly not have a headache in terms of striker options.
Beto, whose future is up in the air, came on to replace the striker, as his performance was assessed by the Everton fans.
Everton fans not happy with Beto after Dominic Calvert-Lewin injury
With Beto seemingly having his bags packed at Everton the striker’s future looks extremely uncertain.
Fans haven’t been too impressed with Beto when he has played this season and it was the same story against Brighton.
The Everton faithful took to X after Beto’s poor showing against Brighton.
@EFC_Lucy added: “There’s no way we can play the rest of the season with Beto upfront. He’s awful”
Many Everton fans commented on what Beto doesn’t offer which Calvert-Lewin does, adding more concern to the no.9’s absence.
@howardskendolls said: “People can keep telling me about Beto, but he’s just not a good footballer. If Dom is injured and on his way out, I’d sell Beto, send Broja back and start from scratch. There are players out there. Some would love a stepping stone Premier League club.”

Moyes will surely be silently in agreement with the Everton fans after watching Beto’s performance for 80 minutes.
Calvert-Lewin’s injury is extremely unfortunate, especially after fans hailed Calvert-Lewin in Everton’s win over Tottenham.
But unfortunately for Beto, he’s not the way forward.
This could change things in terms of Beto’s future, with Moyes now scratching his head about what he can do in his striking position.
Everton fans were promised a striker by The Friedkins and the owners need to grant their wish.
