Everton don’t need Thierno Barry headache as social media activity closely monitored
Everton have had to deal with Thierno Barry’s immaturity this season, monitoring his social media activity.
According to The Athletic on 27 April, the Toffees have an eye on what the striker posts online, something Villarreal had to do during the youngster’s time there.
Back in March, the centre-forward took to Instagram to share his grievances after a small group of Blues fans had an altercation with his friends at the Emirates Stadium.
The news outlet reports that the Merseyside outfit have one message for the attacker to turn his situation around — score goals and put in a shift.
Barry has shown promise at Hill Dickinson Stadium, but David Moyes arguably doesn’t need the problems the striker has brought to the table in L3.

Thierno Barry has tough test ahead at Everton
Things aren’t going to get any easier for Barry next season as the Toffees will undoubtedly look to bolster the number nine position in the summer.
With the former Villarreal striker misfiring and Beto being inconsistent, it would make sense for the Blues to look for a reliable goalscorer in the upcoming transfer window.

Moyes should demand more depth in his squad, especially in the attack, and the arrival of a new centre-forward will likely mean the 23-year-old will have to continue fighting for game time at Hill Dickinson Stadium.
All the talent in the world wouldn’t mean a thing if Barry isn’t able to focus and deliver for the Merseyside outfit in the coming months.
David Moyes has Beto hope at Hill Dickinson Stadium
Everton find themselves 11th in the Premier League after back-to-back losses to Liverpool and West Ham United.
Beto has been in red-hot form for the Toffees but had to be replaced in the Merseyside derby due to injury and missed the trip to London Stadium after a concussion.
Moyes will hope the Guinea-Bissau striker is back in action against Manchester City on 4 May as the Blues look to reignite their European hopes against Pep Guardiola’s title challengers.
Beto’s goals can certainly push the Merseyside outfit further up the table in the final four games of the season, as the Scottish manager looks to bring success back to L3.
