At spurs richarlison is the opposite of kane. Kane couldn't score in one month. Richarlison cant score in 11.It's only August. I seem to remember another striker that never scored in August, but can't quite remember his name lol
What's he done wrong?
Sure the kickout today was a bit petulant. But it's not like he is missing loads of chances every game. He is working hard for the team, doing the dirty stuff - occupying CBs, chasing down balls, hold-up play. He has missed a few chances - but he keeps getting himself in good positions.
There is no reason to be frustrated when we are playing well, and getting goals from other positions.
I think people forget that if we bring in another striker - they still have to do all of the other stuff that Richi is doing already - for us to be successful as a team.
Richarlison is not holding us back.
You sure you was watching the same game. We all want him to do well but he’s simply not good enough at the moment, he was miles off it yesterday. He couldn’t hold the ball up, control it or finish his chances.
I’m not writing him off just yet but we definitely need another option. He’s the weak link in this team right now & there’s only so long we can keep playing him if he continues like this, Son up top with Perisic on the left would be our best option going off the last 3 games. I really hope he gets a goal and gets into some form but we will have to wait & see.
Very true, it’s nice having other players chip in with goals but to be a top team you need a striker scoring minimum 15 goals a season.Exactly this, it’s all well & good now cause we’re winning games, but as soon as the missed chances cost us, it will be more highlighted & not so easy to just brush off.
Its absolutely vital, we have different options in the forward areas.
I saw the same thing with bobby soldier and Erik, sometimes it's just not going to work. The hard decisions are best taken sooner than later.He'll come good, he just needs a goal, you can see that in him on the pitch.
He's an emotional, confidence player and is getting too frustrated with himself as the game goes on.
Get a goal or two under his belt and we'll see a different player.
That's fair, I suppose but he's only had three games so far, under this manager and system.I saw the same thing with bobby soldier and Erik, sometimes it's just not going to work. The hard decisions are best taken sooner than later.
As I said..... Give him the right kind of service....... Perisic crossing the ball and he will score!
Don't think anyone, even the biggest Richarlison fan would say we don't need another option. But to say he won't score goals for us is just wrong. He will but needs a specific type of service, it's unfortunate that he will imo be very reliant on playing with someone who can deliver crosses like PerisicIt was a great cross and good finish but we need another option to him. I’d be happy if that were Scarlett if he can step up.
