2020/21 Richarlison

[Eggs]

He played his worst football under Ancelotti. I don’t see why Ancelotti would want him.

….because you work with a player & you know the talent. Saying that, the links could be lazy journalism.

…£50m is nowhere enough. He’s on a lengthy contract with us, he’s a regular strike for Brazil, he’s a big game player & we’d have to replace him.

We really need to keep our best players & our best players have got to want to stay.

My worry with Richarlison is in two more years he'll still be a wide player who scores a decent number of goals but who adds no creative play, no progressive play and is a giveaway machine. Except then he'll be 26 and ready to walk on a free. I'm not saying I'd actively sell him (although before I remembered the u23 part of the Olympics was based on last year I would have, that angers me) but if Madrid are really interested I'd not be trying to rinse them just because.

In my opinion only DCL and Pickford actually excelled under Ancelotti. But you could argue Dunc and Olsen were behind that. Godfrey came in and did well. James did what you might expect and Keane and Mina had fleeting moments but apart from that I honestly don't think any other player could say they had their best season last season. Most went backwards.

I mean he did keep saying Richarlison was Ballon Dor quality. I never believed he was sincere but maybe he actually was

….he makes things happen.

The first time I watched him closely was when we beat Watford in that daft game at Goodison & I thought he was outstanding. I wondered why we couldn’t sign a player like him.

He’s very, very good. Scores at Anfield this season, makes a goal happen at Arsenal, penalty at Man City. He’s not been at his best but he’s a big game player.

Needs to cut out the going down too easily.

He really doesn't though. He scores some goals. James makes things happen. He's not that.

…that’s his culture, Andy. I don’t like it either but it’s a measure of our support that we highlight it rather than excuse it.

He’s a terrific player in my opinion.

Culture or not Eggs, he needs to stop it.

…notice how he always holds his right leg above his ankle. Think that’s always a giveaway.

Sooner or later, he'll go down under a genuine foul challenge and the referee will wave play on because of his going down too easily/feigning injury.

…yep, the boy who cried Wolf.

Still a fine footballer, though. Difficult to play against. I’d prefer him with us than against us.

He needs to get better at it really

 

[Dykovski200]

Cash in on him, he was poor last year and looked like he didn’t want to be there at times. If he stays I worry the he could get worse attitude wise. Make Real put there hand in there pocket tho.

 

[Zatara]

Real are skint.... like proper skint! We'll only sell for silly money, especially to the club that absolutely screwed us over, Richie was poor last season so who would want him for the money we'd demand and he's away until mid August at the earliest now anyway so i just don't see him going anywhere this summer.

Last signing involving a fee was Reinier in Jan 2020 i think...

sell him for a hefty price and get a cheaper yet better replacement... as ive said many times, richarlison is average at best , i really cant understand how in gods name is he starting for brazil ... speaks a lot about the decline in brazilian NTs (another sign of being the likes of vinicius even getting into the NT) .

he cant control the ball, takes horrible choices and scores at subpar numbers (lul james got similar numbers with a lot less play time). if he wasnt brazilian he would cost about 15 million at best. sell him for a sh1t ton and get a better dude there , it wont be hard... look at copa america Luis diaz from colombia vs argentina...

Who would you have as Brazils front 3 ?
