Popular Post pete0 Posted November 18, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 He said: “I think it was a ball dispute, he went over the top, if my foot was stuck it might have even broken my ankle, but I think it wasn’t bad. “He tried to steal the ball and ended up missing the ball.” Compare this to the shower over the park. Hopefully Cavani doesn't get death threats.. oh wait proper fans don't do that. The shite over the park could take a lesson in class from Richarlison.

dunlopp9987 Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Let me start with saying, he clearly is one of the most important players we have, as his three match ban showed us. His work rate is outstanding (I could do with less of the dramatic flopping) and he's got a bite to him that is much needed in the side. However, I was just looking at the MOTM thread, and he only has 7 votes all season. For perspective, only 3 players have less votes than him, and Nkounkou has 17 more votes than him. Why do we think that is? Is it because he does the dirty work of running and tracking back? As Wiggy mentioned above, his finishing has been pretty poor recently (his goal against Leicester was more of a keeper error) and he seems to be lacking that final pass as of late. Is this a slight worry or just the natural ebb and flow of a season, where he'll eventually put it all together to be the player we know he can be?

markjazzbassist Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 As @Hafnia has said before (not trying to steal the credit here) Richarlison is our Firmino. Rarely gets the MOTD highlights, but he is the reason everyone else is doing well. He is selfless, his work rate and pressing, dragging defenders with his runs, and aerial ability make him a threat which gives other the opportunity to have a mismatch and score.

I think it’s more that each match, a few players have played above their usual standard and thus get the votes. Where Richarlison is working his ass off, but not having things break his way at the moment. I can see him having a run of goals soon.

Bailey Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 I'm not sure he has been THAT good this season. He has still been very good at times but when he has been, someone has been better. I don’t think its enough that he gets MOTM votes for being a pain in the arse but at the same time, it does enough to stop his bad games being really bad games. I also think its fair to say he should have at least a couple more goals to his name this season. Btay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palfy Posted December 21, 2020 Report Share Posted December 21, 2020 I think a lot of his hard work is being overlooked because we have taken it for granted, and others who play better than usual but no better than him standout and get the votes. I wouldn’t want to lose him for another period of games the last one proved how much we need him.

Popular Post RuffRob Posted December 21, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 21, 2020 what every manager loves is consistency - and Richarlison consistently puts in a quality shift for the team - both offensively and defensively. Some games will always be better than others depending on who we play and how we set up. He definitely misses having a attacking full back on the left, so we have automatically been a little toothless as an attacking force this past few games. I would say in most game he is probable most peoples top 3 or 4 performers week in week out. markjazzbassist, Palfy, Matt and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say in most game he is probable most peoples top 3 or 4 performers week in week out. I don't think you can call Richarlison consistent in anything, even effort. There are times when he will run through brick walls and there are other times when he is sulking like a teenage girl. Whilst they might be 10 minutes apart during the game, you can at least guarantee that at some point in the game, he will get stuck in. He is definitely not consistent on the ball either. He isn't Iwobi level inconsistent but he has moments when he is and then others when he looks like a world beater. Like Shukes says, he manages to hit plenty of 6's or 7's after the 90 minutes but during the game itself it is more often than not a bit of a roller-coaster ride!

London Blue Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 He is out of form, low on confidence and missing the crowd I think more than most other players.

A agree and hope your right, but he looks totally disinterested at the moment, doesn’t try to take on the full back down the line, just runs into blind alleys, and didn’t track back as much last night as he usually does.

Bailey Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 I think he has just lost his form and confidence following quite a few missed games. It all makes his sending off against Liverpool even more frustrating. It would also appear that these dips are a part of his game. He did it for Watford, he has done it for us at some stage each season too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunlopp9987 Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 I know we all talk about the lack of depth up top behind Dom, but here is where a lack of quality wingers hurts us. Richarlison has looked completely out of sorts for weeks and if I were Carlo and had someone half decent to fill his place, I'd bench Richy against Leeds. Unfortunately it would be Gordon coming in for him, and that's just not an option. No matter how shit Richy is, he's guaranteed a starting spot.

c1982 Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 We’re desperate for a Harvey Barnes type player - fearless and direct - someone who will actually run at defenders. If this happens, I’d like to see Richarlison get more opportunities as a number 9. We’d have to be less direct but I don’t think taking DCL out for the odd game would be a bad thing. dunlopp9987 and Romey 1878 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
