I agree, I think Richarlison is brilliant and possibly better than James too. He's excellent and will make it to the Champions League one day, hopefully with Everton. I just do not think he is in the top 10 players in his position in the world yet and that is what justifies a fee over €80m in my view. Especially after this year, I think transfer fees are more likely to shrink for a couple of years as clubs become more cautious financially.

richy is not better than James . Let’s be honest richy can’t cross , pass, dribble , beat A man and his decision making is poor. Also , this season his finishing has been cack. He works hard and usually is a reliable finisher but James oozes quality .

He must be a dream player to have in your team. He actually has so much to
His game. He can go past players, can create, shoot with his right or left foot (although a bit off at the moment I’ll agree) and is a great header of the ball.
Just because he doesn’t find passes we don’t see or weight a ball like james doesn’t mean he’s not as effective. He needs to be a bit more clinical ill agree but he’s a quality footballer.

mate richy cannot go past players .. and he doesn’t really create as he can’t pass a ball 6 yards
 
I don't know if Richy will ever reach the level that James had at his peak, who is just a genuinely talented player.

But he is better fit for today's football. He is fast, has immense work rate, can dribble. I would be shocked if he doesn't have a long and successful career.

Just needs to figure out how to tone it down and he will be a world class player.
 
Needs to score more goals. At his best when driving at defenders but his finishing and decision making lets him down.

Also hope he can toughen up a bit, he's strong and powerful but does my head in when he's lying around the floor after minimal contact at least 3-4 times every game.

Maybe you are right and he is not better than James was at his best, but if I had to lose one of those two from the starting line up, I would choose James over Richarlison. That is just my personal view.

He is still young and still learning but he has a great influence on the game already. Teams can see he could be so strong in future if he continues to improve. This season has not been so good for him and he has been frustrated. It is so difficult because I want him to score but scoring increases his chances of leaving.

The best outcome might be Everton reaching Europe and a poor season individually for Richarlison, so that he may be persuaded to stay. I cannot see any teams making a serious offer that would interest Everton unless he scores 12-15 league goals again this season.
 
There's a problem over where it's best to play Richarlison. To my mind playing him so wide means he's rarely getting close enough to link up with Calvert Lewin. And secondly it limits his use of one of his best assets -- his heading ability. Forwards who are as strong in the air as he is are a rare breed these days. I suspect this might be one of the issues he's not happy with at the moment.

Yep I miss 442 sometimes, One of my favorite Richarlison goals is the 3-2 against Wolves where he just absolutely left 6ft3 Boly cloud watching and planted a nice header for the winner, The problem is we can't be playing 442 with James in the side.

He's going nowhere if our asking price is £100m in the Summer mate.

Hope you’re right mate, it’s win win though I think. Tell him he can have his move but only for 100 mill minimum, if somebody is willing to pay that, then give the lad his move reluctantly. If, however, nobody matches that valuation then keep him. Explain to him that until somebody meets the club’s valuation of him, he remains an Everton player with many years left on his contract.

Scenario two would be my preferred option, because we are so much better with him in the side.
 
I think this lad is one of the best headers of the ball around. Along with DCLs improvement we should be a real problem for defenders.

Except we cant cross a ball without Digne.
