He provides the regulatory clarity behind the controversy to ensure fans get the full picture.
He netted the winner against Newcastle United on Monday, 2 November, just weeks after also doing so against Ipswich Town in a 1-0 victory.
Despite his goals, he could still be doing so much better in the final third, with the striker leading the way for big chances missed by quite some margin.
He missed a gilt-edge chance at St James' Park, swinging and missing in the first half, but that shouldn't be Moyes' biggest worry at the Hill Dickinson.
Thierno Barry must get rid of his play-acting
With The Friedkin Group (TFG) failing to invest properly during the summer window, Barry is out on his own as a centre-forward on Merseyside.
During a clash for the ball with Joelinton, the 24-year-old threw himself to the floor in a highly theatrical manner. Newcastle fans were furious.
And understandably so. At times, his play-acting can cause a lot of frustration, and it could lead to problems down the line if he's not careful.
On this occasion, the way he went to ground may have caused himself more injury than the challenge itself. He needs to snap out of it.
However, that hasn't stopped links from emerging at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, ones that are bound to get fans excited.
Folarin Balogun remains a target after his summer deal fell through at the 11th hour, while Dinamo Zagreb striker Dion Beljo is also an option.
