Player Richarlison

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I am not going to get into a silly back and forth cos you are trying to put words in my mouth - we need both of them on the pitch right now and there is no one else to replace him.
Muani is bringing the best out of him and adds a lot.

The underlying point here is that it's only his GOALs that are making him (to your description) "undroppable"......

Otherwise we could just as easily go with a different combo front 3 with RKM at ST.

he was a kid at watford and could actually move then. you think a player thats only useful in the box is a winger? hows that make sense? youve just been told he has a 0.65 goals per 90 mins in the prem above....thats good goal scoring numbers.

solanke is a better footballer than richie outside the 18 yard box, much better imo. but he isnt a better goal scorer, he isnt as ruthless in the 18 yard box, he also might not come back the same player after this injury.
Before he came to tottenham he was majority cutting in from the left. He isn't good enough to be central so get rid or try him on the left.

Imo
 
This useless cart horse played previously for teams battling relegation. He’s helping drag us down to his level.

It’s really simple, if you sign fucking shit footballers like this donkey, you end up with a fucking shit team.
 
I think in a 2 like the game vs Psg he has his uses but you must have something a bit different next to him to compliment the hustle and bustle. As a loan striker in this league he just does not possess the required technical ability of a Berbatov to play that role or the pace to get in behind.

I don't even blame Richarlison, he's just a shit footballer who we overpaid for.
That was a crime but to persevere for so long is on the people who run the club. The player is never going to get better. He's dollop.

The mind blowing things is we keep giving him time and chances and the WHOLE LIVING UNIVERSE can see he is sh!t.

Yet, we are quickly to ship the likes of Veliz, Parrot, Linkshear, Scarlett, etc. I mean how worse can this lot be????

I bet if you ask someone like Xavi "do you prefer Richi or a goal post between the opposition CBs?", he would opt for a goal post. At least he can play 1-2 with the post.

What curse was thrown at Tottenham to get stuck with this guy????
 
In closing stages of the game today my mind wandered off. And I thought... that i mean, I get it, everyone should get a chance and all...

But maybe in EPL we would be better off starting in EPL with a male player up front? Or is that too revolutionary idea?

Pretty fucking fed up with all that falling to ground, diving, complaining, whining and bitching. All while winning roughly 0 duels and seeing the first touch bounce off him 5-7 meters constantly. It is incredibly pathetic.

We have Kolo Muani who did SO well against PSG. How the fuck do we have him pushed to wing to accomodate that ... thing? HOW THE FUCK is not Muani starting up front. How? Fucksake, it is so clear that Muani-Kudus should play as front 2.
 
He’s terrible. I don’t care about his goal per game tally. I didn’t care when it was Brennan and I don’t care when it’s this lumbering oaf.

An active hindrance to every bit of play which isn’t a final touch of ball in to net. Can’t control a ball, can’t pass a ball, can’t hold it up, has no first touch, takes a few touches to get it out his feet, isn’t a threat back to his or playing in behind.

All he can do is score free headers, tap ins, and he has a worldie in him every now and then or a really nice finish. You can’t consistently play good football with players like this as they can’t be relied to so the basics 90% of the time which is sort of the bare minimum for consistency

He’s fucking worse than terrible. We start with 10 men with this clown on the pitch. No wonder we are shit. If Johnson and him start in the same game it’s 9. I honestly never went to Newcastle the other week because I knew those two would start. That’s where I’m at with these players.
