Thierno Barry makes Everton promise after sixth goal of season

Thierno Barry Everton

Thierno Barry has told Everton supporters there is “more to come” after scoring his sixth goal in eight games this season.

Barry put Everton 2-1 ahead at Hull City on Sunday, finishing from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall’s pass before Mohamed Belloumi equalised for the home side. The 23-year-old shared Everton’s post about his goalscoring record on Instagram after the game.

Barry: More to come

“More to come I promise, I know I can have more. still learning 💙🙌🏿,” Barry wrote.

The striker had already missed several chances at the MKM Stadium before scoring in the second half and admitted afterwards that he felt he should have had more. His six goals in eight appearances represent an encouraging start to the campaign after David Moyes continued with Barry as his main centre-forward.

Dewsbury-Hall has also spoken about the demands he places on his teammate. The midfielder, who scored Everton’s first goal at Hull before setting up Barry, described their relationship as “love-hate”. He said Barry had returned for the new season “really hungry” and described him as one of the hardest-working players he has played alongside.

Barry received a seven in our Everton player ratings, with Dewsbury-Hall taking the highest mark. Everton remain unbeaten in the Premier League after Sunday’s 2-2 draw at Hull.
