My biggest problem with him is that he tends to play left forward. Precisely where Son plays. Imo we need someone else who can do that on the right (Kuve) excepted of course. Other positions are a priority as far as I can see.

He is a s**t though and I’m not opposed to that. Need to change our whole attitude into that of winners.

we need to stop this we cannot buy a player because we already have Son or Kane in that position.. We need high level players to rotate with them and push then just like the other top teams do..

Exactly. Liverpool bought Diaz even though Mane played wide left. They’ve got 5 quality forwards (and Origi) that they rotate.

Bit baffled at the dismissal of his attitude when it's clear he'd run through walls for the team. Might be a bit hard to stomach the diving but it's not like Kane, Son, Lamela haven't all done the same. Guy works exceptionally hard - there's a reason Everton fans love him.

Yeah, he’s literally got the same attitude as Coco. He’s a shithouse who wants his team to win.

I think there's a bit of a difference.

Lamela was a shithouse who would wind up the opposition, make them uncomfortable and play the dark arts to win.

Richarlison goes down everytime he gets touched. Even if his team are in possession and could make something happen, he's lying on the floor, holding his face after taking a light shoulder to the chest.

I think we’re going to have to agree to disagree. No doubt he goes down easily (like many strikers these days) but he’s also a wind up merchant of considerable skill

Maybe, I don't watch enough of him to really know. But when I've seen him do it, it just feels like he's going down because he's been touched rather than it being tactical

He has decent levels of shithousery and if that was Lamela we would be loving it. If Conte thinks he can offer not only something different but fits into Conte's ideology then I would be for it.

I actually wouldn't be upset if we got him - he works hard and has a ton of talent, for the right price I think he would be a good option

No way. He's petulant, inconsistent and quite frankly not very good.

He is one of those hugely over hyped players who has a few decent performances a season. Nowhere the level, never mind the potential, of dejan.

Even if I agreed with the first bit, he isn't going to be available at the right price.
