Recall Lankshear play him. He'll not be fucking worse.
He scored the odd banger. That was itRichie has already scored more league goals. Pav was abysmal, hence why he spent the rest of his career doing not a lot in Russia.
Nah, just buy a fucking proper striker.
seems theres a shortage of them in football, its all inverted winger shit now.
He simply doesn't pass the eye test as astrikerprofessional footballer. Even if one closes their eyes.
Who scores at a higher rate?It's very Spursy to sell Johnson and keep Richarlison. Selling away guaranteed goals just for aesthetics like "work rate" which means nothing for the league table position
This guy is an enigma wrapped in dogshit isn't he?
Somebody told me his goal scoring record the other day for us and I had to do a double take, it was nowhere near as bad as I expected.
But simultanously he has games like tonight where if he was playing for my old pub team I would bring him off after 20 minutes.
You would think he could find a little bit of consistency, its a WC year....
On balance you need consistency and he's just not it is he?
This makes no sense the objective reality is not that Johnson scores more consistently than Richarlison. They both need binning in the order we have begun.It's very Spursy to sell Johnson and keep Richarlison.

That’s flawed thinking because what you call “our best attacking play” is still garbage compared to better teams. We need to hold ourselves to a higher standard and demand better. These players are not capable of the consistent attacking quality needed or they wouldn’t be here.He's not consistent enough to play as ST for us. But he can be useful at LW where he can crash the box and poach goals and press a lot.
Just last week most of the folks on this board were saying how RKM is too shit to play ST, and Richy is a disaster at LW. Our best attacking play lately has come from EXACTLY that combination.

That’s why they are here….

The guy basically lives offside. Such a lack of basic football IQ in a PL (and Brazil) player paid 100s of 1000s of GBP a week is both staggering and disgusting.
Unforgivable
