I am all for officials letting the game flow in friendlies but thought Rich and Kane were consistently kicked at and fouled this evening that really prevented our front 3 from gaining any sort of fluidity.
Is agree with that, the ref let way too many niggly fouls go. Seville players just ran through the back of our players whenever they got the ball. There was also a lot of pushing after the ball had gone for no reason. That said, Tanganga was probably the dirtiest player on the pitch - he really does use his arms way too much.

Watching Richarlison it’s not about goals, I’m sure we’ll manage that . He needs to perform to a level where he’s threatening to score, be a presence . That illuminates a defender or two. Create space for others. Teams will not ignore him and that’s job done. Great signing for the long term rather than a busy bee who will start well and fade.

Chelsea away is absolutely the perfect game to make his debut, even if it's off the bench. Imagine we're 1 up and killing time in the 87th minute. He'll be rolling all over Stamford Bridge.

Score the winner against Chelsea, throw another flare, headbutt the ref. What a debut.

I think Richi will have a better few weeks than Rishi.

Made a big difference when he came on. Probably won’t score loads of goals or get loads of assists but his work rate, movement and link up play will all help us win points.

Great to finally have quality depth like him in our squad.

If Kane hadn’t got his head to that, Richarlison looked to be right there. How the two of them were both free for that is beyond me but I loved it.

Agree, mate.

The thing with him is that he is tireless. He does not stop. He won't be affected by a bad miss, he ploughs on.

Think he gives us another dimension and he'll pop up with some really crucial goals.
