2021/22 Richarlison

[Preki]

It's a Shane that he has to join another premier league team. However no other leagues club really has the cash to pay over 50 million for a good but not great player. So it's premier League or PSG basically.

It absolutely is, in fact I would say Richarlison has considerably more technical ability than 3 of them, and about the same as Jesus.

Just to confirm we’re talking technical ability, first touch, dribbling, passing, crossing etc? You are mental my friend.

This thread reminds me of the Barkley one when he was here. People suggesting he was as good as Lampard and Gerrard at 23 because his stats were similar and anyone that correctly said he was nowhere near that level got rounded on by the mob. Apparently suggesting Richarlison isn’t at the level of Man City or Real Madrid is some sort of sacrilege, as if you’ve just called him a League 2 dosser or something.

It’s fine to say he’s one of our best players, but he isn’t this world beater that would walk into all the best teams in the world. He is a very flawed player. The unfortunate reality is that everyone outside of our fanbase can see that as well. We often want our players to be much better than they are, and invariably end up pretending they are.

I dont think many or indeed anyone(might have missed it) is even claiming that.
I think a few posts ive read have been spot on. Dont be surprised if a few managers see in him the potential to slot into a good side. I have seen quite a few times richarlison set the tone for Everton. In a side that hasnt got many or if any natural winners or even hunger. That doesnt go unnoticed by managers who assemble teams like that.

People are saying he’d walk into City’s team and improve it.

….ha, ha, but he has enough technical ability to play regularly as a striker for Brazil. 14 goals in 36 games for Brazil, Jesus has 19 in 56.

Richarlison might not do step-overs, he might not look fancy but he’s uncomplicated and very effective. He’d be terrific for City & I stand by what I said, he‘d be better for them than Grealish.

Richarlison does not keep possession enough for city. City rely on patient build ups and players looking after the ball.
Richarlison is a fabulous player but I think he would a misfit for Man City.
Grealish on the other hand has everything that city require, but it hasn’t come
Together for him yet. Next season is pivotal for him - if he makes an impact in the league, champs league and World Cup he could viewed in the upper echelons of world stars. A season like this and he will be viewed as a poor city signing.
Genuinely could either way

I wonder if he has actually asked for a move? Or the board have told him you have to be sold (FFP) !! much in the same way as our Fat Mess of a Chairman who said Rooney was not for sale but was being touted to Chelsea and United.

@Eggs said hed be more effective than Grealish in the City team.

I said hed walk into Madrid and PSGs teams and improve them. Both have 2 definite starters and a gap for Richarlison alongside them.

I dont think he would walk into the city team. But i wouldnt say he would look out of place. Thats not so much about richarlison though. A good player could drop into the city team and look ok.
Again, i think its mentality with richarlison. I dont think he thinks he would be out of place playing for man city.

 

[BullensRoad]

I take it that suggests you think he does have the technical ability to play for Manchester City?

Easily.

You can’t fault his mentality. But you have to be basically a robot to play in that City team. First touch has to be perfect all the time, all your passes have to be perfectly weighted, can anyone on here honestly tell me Richarlison ticks any of those boxes? He’s far too unpredictable for that team. He’d suit a team that plays the style of Liverpool more where the forwards basically just have to run around maniacally and hit the target when the ball falls to them near the box.

Have a day off from being patronising to other peoples opinions brother

Interesting.

Who out of Neymar, Mbappe and Messi are they dropping for Richarlison?

 

[Blue Cally]

He is a player that suits Conte / Simeone style teams, I just hope Simeone and Atletico Madrid come in for him and he goes there.

 

[zukai12_]

I get we have to sell becasue we aren't allowed to spend atm

but i just have zero trust in the club to bring in anybody as good, let alone better

I agree. I dont know who pulled up city. City wasnt the best example but i meant more he would feel he can play in a decent side and not feel he shouldnt be there.
I have no idea if the spurs thing is genuine. But i so get the Conte thing. Conte loves players like Richarlison
