Everton striker Beto has been defying doubters his entire career, but can he finally silence them for good?

The Portuguese forward has faced skepticism at every turn, from his humble beginnings in Portugal’s fifth tier to his big-money move to Everton. But Beto believes that criticism drives him to work harder and push himself to be better.

Beto’s unconventional style has drawn criticism from some, but he remains unfazed. He told BBC Sport, “Sometimes I like to read my comments when I played badly or missed chances. They will say ‘Beto is shit with missing chances’. But I like it because I say ‘OK, I will make this guy shut his mouth.’”

The Everton striker takes criticism personally and uses it as fuel to improve. He keeps notes and screenshots of negative comments, which he reads to motivate himself in training. Beto believes that having “haters” drives him to succeed.

But will it be enough to turn his Everton career around? Beto struggled to impress last season, starting just 10 games and scoring four goals. The pressure is on him to deliver this season.

Everton fans are eagerly waiting to see if Beto can finally live up to his potential. If he can channel his criticism into positive performances, he may just win over his doubters.

The stage is set for Beto’s redemption story. Will he rise to the challenge and prove his critics wrong, or will he continue to struggle? Only time will tell.”
