Richarlison

[Gutter Boy]

I’m glad, the more of our squad not wasting their summer break and coming back to pre-season training late the better.

Absolutely. The fewest that go, the absolute better for next season.

I'm hoping he's not coming back at all

He's probably also on an ICE arsest and torture list, due to his antifa background and outspoken opposition to Bolsonaro

He's still our best forward by an absolute mile. Ideally he wont be coming back as first choice, but I'd definitely much rather Solanke goes first.

Richarlison left out of Brazil World Cup squad.

Neymar included.

Is anyone surprised? He hasn't been getting in their recent squads and before that was just a sub in the bench. That whole Brazil's No9 thing hasn't been true for a number of years.

I'm surprised J Pedro hasn't been selected

Yeah that is more surprising, I think the form of Endrick and I guess Tiago is what has made him miss out. Martinelli has gone which I think is a bit of a poor pick but he's more of a wide forward so not his direct competition.

That’s like being the thinnest kid at fat camp. This is the worst group of forwards we’ve had in the PL era.

They’ve been a mediocre side for 20 years

The best thing about watching Richarlison is that it gives me (at the wrong end of my 40s and with no discernable footballing talent) hope that I might still make it as a PL footballer.

I wouldn’t start you ahead of Richarlison on Sunday, but I would start you ahead of Muani.

Great fans we have

 

[Mikey10]

Our fans are a hell of a lot better than the vast majority of our players tbf.

I'm not sure what your perception of a good fan is, but I'm pretty sure it's ok to be critical of players who aren't up to the required standard.

If you're attending matches and getting on their backs and then that's a different matter, but pointing out certain players aren't good enough and part of the reason we are where we are is not a problem IMO....

In fact not doing it, and continually finding excuses for substandard players (and managers), could well be seen as part of the wider issues around the club.

Interesting discussion around this on The Spurs Show earlier this week, which focused on our collective shrugging of shoulders as a fanbase.

"I'm hoping he's not coming back at all" from the same person that posted a brick emoji in the Tel thread.

There's an in between though, isn't there? Yeah Richarlison isn't good enough. He tries hard and plays to his limits, ultimately let down by the terrible decision making at top, like the rest of the players and us.

 

[metalgear]

we should put an offer to moyes that he can have richy on the cheap next season - on the condition we stay up

shouldn't have to. if we cant beat or draw against Everton then we don't deserve to be in the league

We need a bit more than tries hard and pays to his limits, especially when those limits are so dismal.
