2021/22 Richarlison

[nsno-chris]

I’d hope now we have someone in with a better clue that we’ll get some value, the lad at Hull seems the fit but not at the price they quoted

I hold no hope with this club unfortunately.

At 21, nobody knew how good he could possibly be. His price tag was because he was so young and had the potential to develop into a world class player.

At 25, after 6 seasons in the Premier League, everybody now has a good idea of Richys ability. He is very good but is not going to make a huge leap.

He isn't going to suddenly go from 10 goals a season to 20+ goals a season. He can be an important team player and will help Spurs but I am not expecting him to compete for the golden boot. He will probably score 10-12 again for Spurs next season.

Obviously they need a good squad next season but obviously Kane and Son are massively superior to Richy so he'll be rotating with Kulusevski who was excellent last season.

I wouldn't be betting him to start their big games.

I’m sure our accredited scouting network have suitably identified a replacement who matches his ethic and output

What over priced PL player will they have their sights on

If this wasa crossword it would be five across Burnley attacker, 6 letters;

Question: Burnley attacker made of wet weetabix.

All the best to him. He is the new Rooney, sold to save us from incompitence.

It’s ok the buy players young, develop them and then sell for a profit.

As long as you replace them well of course .

But it’s bad when you sell them to a club you wanted to compete with a couple of years ago.

Buy well and this isn’t a bad deal all round.

Sadly we aren't in the position to develop young players. Richarlison's replacement has to produce from day one.

At the time I did feel that.

Was proven wrong.

To make such a measly profit, if any, is pretty poor.

But needs must, Everton made themselves vulnerable.

Richarlison wouldn't have rocked the boat for Spurs, in a World Cup year.

If we weren't so inept, we may have had a chance in keeping him if no elite/top clubs come in.

The sooner we get a team in place who can buy well, it'll help us to also sell well.

I don't think because a player done well you were proven wrong. if we go out and spend 50m on his replacement who scored 5 goals last season, for example Broja, that's overpaying. Him turning into 50m player doesnt mean he was worth it at the time.

Maybe if the fantasy Barca bid for 100m was real we shouldve sold him then but right now we are over the barrel. It's all the boards own doing but we need to sell by the end of the day and have made a profit on him with one of the tightest negotiators in the biz. We are like 5-10 million short given Raphinha sale but our deadline has killed us plus a lack of interest by other clubs.

Frank and Kev are the only two I’m pinning hope on

So sad to see him go and sadly will become top top
Player

 

[nsno-chris]

If you just look at stats alone Spurs have paid way too much. Just over ten Prem goals averaged over four seasons.

They haven’t at all, they’ve got a bargain.

Let’s see how he plays with a team that actually creates chances, and space for him to exploit

 

[Wrighty]

Thanks for the memories! all the best!!!

Oh god, I’ve got nightmares already

The thought of him rocking up here and people actually being excited fills me with regret already

 

[Saint Domingo]

He’s gone now. Onto the next one. Only interested in the players who want to play in the royal blue.

Funny how the memory plays tricks on people.

Ok, it was only his second most common finishing position.

If you take away the 2 dodgy seasons you mentioned, his average was 6th. Still a bit better than just calling it "top half"

If we were linked with a player with a similar scoring record in the Prem over four seasons for fifty million plus the forum would implode.

But market value & player prices are not based on failed players, else why do the prices keep going up !?!

That isn't correct. Failed players inflate the market even more.

Selling clubs will point to high fees for failed players and say "Our player is better than him and look at the fee he went for".

The likes of Grealish and Pepe will have been cited by us and Spurs will have cited successful players like Diaz and Torres who went for less.

I think the Mane fee for Bayern too will have been discussed, as he has only 1 year left, Richarlison having two.
