2020/21 Richarlison

Is he rubbish again now and not good enough?

That's been said about every member of the starting XI at some point by some posters.

He's in poor form, which happens even to first-rate players. Digne had that rough patch at about this time last year. He'll shake it off soon enough, and the nice thing about everyone els elevating their level of play is that we can beat top 6 teams when he's not in fine form.
 
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.
Totally. Particularly in front of goal needs to tame the inner Richy and compose himself.

will always play on the edge and that’s what must make him such a hard player to go up against. Think it’s easy to under estimate the trouble he causes oppo teams just by being there and thereabouts.
 
Situation has changed massively, since Dignes out he’s solely on his own on the left. Doubled up on, but don’t question his work ethic

also James not playing means they don’t have to double up on him as it’s only iwobi there ... meaning they can double richy as you say. Compound that with digne missing and us having no forward threat from LB and I tend to agree that this would be making richys task a lot more difficult
 

He needs a rest, but the fact is we can't win a game when he's not in the team.

The theatrics are part of the modern game. I seem to remember our fans crying out for a bit of snide when we had Mr. Nice, jagielka as our captain.

he had a three week rest after the derby mate
 
Clearly wasn’t fit last night, that wrist injury looks a sore one, just look at the way he bails on the celebration for the 1st goal & the way he was carrying his arm all game.

Didn’t he have a problem with that wrist early on in his Everton career?
 

Is he rubbish again now and not good enough?

Nah, Richarlison always has a go when he plays but right now not everything is going his way. I feel that because we know just how good he can be, we expect him to be killing it week in week out. All player have their 'off period', we just have to be a bit more patient and sell the useless prima donna in January.
 
Problem is that there isn't a single free game day. The semi final is the first week of January, then there are midweek games in the league or FA Cup right through to mid February.

If we were to get to the Final of the Carabao Cup and the 5th round of the FA Cup we would have 2 games a week between now and February 13th.

If we get to the semi's of the carabao I hope we go a full change in the FA Cup against Rotherham and play a full 2nd string side.

Would be foolish risking the likes of Richarlison, Doucoure & DCL
 
All players go through a poor spell but in his poor spell since his return he’s got a goal and an assist to his name. Also it’s not like he’s lost the effort or determination, he’s still working hard. We know he can improve so no reason to be concerned. He will come good again soon.
