He'll be in our squad next season, I'm confident of that.
Bebe
- Thread starter Raoul
- Start date
That is just portuguese nationality wise. Jackson and Montero for example have more goals.
Fergie Fergie sign him up...?
No way don´t spoil our possible deal mate
. Money, him and Lindgaard and we have a Carvalho deal.I still don't think he's quite good enough for United but he's at a stage now where he's getting close. His first touch was excellent tonight, especially when he brought that goal kick down in one touch.
If he can just get that little bit better then he'd be useful for us. If he can improve even further then it'd get interesting. I think he's better as a striker at the moment though as he has less to do and can be as direct as he likes, which is a big asset of his in a way.
Nearly every shot was on target from him tonight and they were all dangerous. Hit a Ronaldo style freekick too which was flying in. Some dangerous crosses too and some tricky footwork. I'd just like to see him link up more at times, if he gets that down then he'll make it for a good team.

I'd genuinely love him to get in Portugal's World Cup squad and tear shit up in Brazil.
Well, he's a big threat with his shooting with either foot. Took his goal very well and all his shots were working the keeper or an inch wide
However shooting alone might not be enough for one of our wide options and we have Lingard who is similar in that respect.

A very sensible analysis and i have the same point of view. I think it would be a smart policy to probably renew and loan him to a club with a more demanding enviroment and pressure. If he keeps evolving this way, he should get a chance. Like i said in the Carvalho thread, it´s not like your other winger choices are much better. I know the portuguese league isn´t one of the best in europe but we have seen a fair share of players evolving here, going to top leagues and proving themselves.
Yeah I agree. Not sure when his deal is up but I'd 'roll the dice' again with him and see if he can improve further. A player with his shooting ability is quite rare, it's just getting the rest of his game up to scratch.
I'd definitely like to see him on our preseason tour and then consider it from there. He deserves that at least. If he is to go out on loan then we need to get it spot on once again to ensure he's given the opportunity to develop further.
So, do you think it'd be good for Sporting, for example, to have him on loan next season? I would imagine your excellent coaches could improve him massively.
Absolutely. Since it was an away fixture i wasn´t at the stadium and was "following" the match also in the Sporting forum and most of the users have the same opinion. Like i said previously, he has been performing and putting up better number than most of Sporting and Porto´s wingers. If United still has any interest in him, he should do pre season and if you still don´t want him around, just keep the loan policy but this time to a bigger club to see how he goes.
Sounds like it'd work out very well for both clubs. You get a regular goalscorer who'll guarantee 10+ a year in your team(I'd imagine), and Manchester United hopefully see him develop into the excellent player he has the potential to be.
I suppose a Bebe loan(maybe with an option to buy) could be part of the United offer for Carvalho, it'd make sense at least.
I´d also like Lindgaard if our keeper does join Atlético Madrid after the WC like it´s rumored. I´ve always liked Lindgaard and i think he would be a good option for us.
I can see him definitely having role as a sub or even as a starter striker for Portugal, I don't think he can be worse than some options they have.
Man United loanee Bebe blasts home a beauty for Pacos v Sporting Lisbon in front of Old Trafford scouts

It's so refreshing to see opinions changing on him finally, I've always said he's a goal machine with a power shot and speed and it's good to see him finally banging them in consistently, worldies too, what a man, what a story.
If Tom Cleverley can make it at United, so can Bebe.
he always looked like a striker to me....when he was making those crazy crosses from the wings...
hope we get him back. Wilson and Babe strike force....hmmmmm

There's hope for all of us if Cleverley can make it.
So what has he got over a goalscorer like Powell, who is several years younger?
Good goal, well taken. Crikey it's a bit misty there isn't it? I'm suprised they can see what they are doing!
Plays out wide, rather than centrally, like Powell.
Also, pace. Powell is no slouch, but Bebe is lightning quick off the mark. Bebe looks a lot stronger too.
According to Correio da Manhã (the portuguese equivalent of the Daily Mail/The Sun) United have discarded Bébe and he is going to sign for Benfica in a deal brokered by Jorge Mendes.

What would be the reaction if he did well for Benfica and then signed for Chelsea?

Physique.
Didn't Mourinho want him at Madrid? As ridiculous as it sounds, Bebe could potentially be a better option up front than anyone he has at Chelea right now.
Considering the money Chelsea have spent over the years, their lack of a top striker is criminal. We signed Wayne Rooney for £25m in 2004 and he's scored 214 goals for us, since then Chelsea have spent £160m on strikers who have 372 goals between them.

I love the way he moves with the ball. Forgive me, but his style reminds me of Brazilian Ronaldo.
Yeah, I always thought he was much more a striker than a winger too. I'm glad he's doing well, I supported the guy on here at times when he was ridiculed and now he actually looks a decent player
He has gone on loan and done the business- not much more you can ask of the lad. Give him a pre season again see how he gets on. Make a decision after that.
He's been pretty decent on our last two pre-season tours.
True bud- but lets see if he excels.
Bebe in action this evening, tune in people! 6 goals in his last 6 games.
Can we rely on regular updates?
My prediction : About 6 shots, a goal and not too much else of note.
Sure. The game can be seen on any bookie site that offers live streaming by the way.
Cheers chap.
His team haven't seen much of the ball so far. Bebe had a shot and won a corner but that's about it.
Lost 1-0 to Estoril. End of the run, no goals this time
Had an ambitious free kick from 30m right over the crossbar. Won the ball a couple of times tracking back. Not that much to right home about really.
If this kid doesn't go to the World Cup, then there is something seriously wrong with the world.
I'm talking about the real World Cup by the way, not the homeless hobo one like last time.
