Thought he made a huge difference when he came on.

If he can stay fully fit I’d like to see: him,son,Johnson for rest of the season
I saw some stats (will have to find them) that our win percentage and points gained is much better when he starts.
yesterday we played so much better as soon as he came on.
I think people miss what he does on the pitch as they focus on his goal scoring. He brings so much more to the team.

When he isn’t in the team our front line is so predictable and weak, must be a dream for the opposition defence knowing they can sit deep and we will still look for the perfect tap in goals

He needs to start against Chelsea and Son has to play on the left wing. Son had a bad game yesterday but looked a lot better as a winger. Johnson has to play on the right meaning that Kulusevski plays central, with Sarr and Holjbjerg in midfield. Richarlison is the key to those changes being possible. Being a shithouse will be a big plus in a game like this too.

This feels like an emotional Neville not wanting City to win it. How can you look at that and scream that he has to go for a headbut?



This was so stupid from Richarlison btw and no idea why people on twitter are praising him for that. Lost momentum just after scoring, allowed them to take off Odegaard for Kiwior and ended with 2 dangerous corners for them

Two defenders tried to block him when he doesn't have the ball following the kick off. Arsenal does borderline shit like that all the time and if you avoid the physical battle you tell the ref that their behaviour is acceptable.

You can see the ball goes passed the defender yet he's only got eyes for Richarlison!!

So what do we do with him then?

For me when he's fit it is clear that our best front 3 are Son LW, Richy ST and Johnson RW however I think we need to add another top striker signing this summer and another top WF signing, ideally I'd like to do that on top of keeping Richy who would be a fantastic squad option and his mentality and fight are what we need...

However if we don't have the budget for that and a top CDM etc then perhaps it might be best to sell Richy to Saudi and bring in 2x top strikers this summer if we can get creative with our budget.

If the money is there then more than happy to keep him, just need him to stay fit more often.
