Player Watch Player Watch: Richarlison

[GutBucket]

Almost became a Bolton fan because of Okocha doing similar stuff (to think that Big Sam once had the team with most flair in the league). Prosinecki was embarrassing other players in his short stint with Portsmouth and everyone loved it. They gave him too much space and few moments later he punished them with perfect assist.
Lovely player, for us.

Correct... good point.. and it's not like Richarlison was timewasting or something like that. We've seen players before going to the cornerflag doing tricks and moves to run down time or tease the other team.... get over it please... I guess Neco Williams and Carragher/SKY still see Richarlison in a blue shirt....

His dribbling has pleasantly surprised me. I always thought he wasn’t great on the ball, I never really watched much of him at Everton and thought he didn’t really have that Brazilian flair but he’s been great at getting past players with good footwork and skill. He’s already proven worth the fee, coming on and changing the game every time so far, he’s upped the intensity and pegged the opponent back

Dele had a bit of a naughty streak in him. Lamela had slightly more.

Those guys were like second hand cherry vape smoke to the Richarlison dose of H straight into the jugular.

Love having a proper **** that people can really detest. Add that to all of them swarming around refs these days (never seen that in my supporting life) then this season could be shithousing delight.

I want him to get a goal in the next few weeks or there will all of a sudden be a bit of pressure that he hasn’t got a goal yet. You just know the media will be piling pressure onto him.

Wow, that might be my first truly disliked post on here haha.

Honesty thrilled if his antics don't bother other fans and hope he wins me over. I just can't stand it at the level and frequency he does it but maybe I'll warm to it. Let's see.

Same, every time he gets the ball I scream at the tv 'go on Richy son'!

He was laying on the ground because he got kicked in the balls. That’s not shithousery, that’s anatomy. As for the keepy uppies, he wasn’t doing it for the drama of the moment, he was trying to wind them up…he knew someone would come for him and foul….that distracts them and wastes more time. It was brilliant and more importantly, to you i would think, perfectly legal. The ball was in play.

He also laid on the floor for so long to completely kill their momentum

The shithousery part that of the kick in the balls was he went down about five seconds after it happened and when there was a stop in play. Every man who has taken a swift kick or football to the bollocks knows it's an instant KO, not act like nothing happens for a few seconds and then go down to waste some time.

But I'm not against what he did though, I found it funny.

But it’s not as you can have a delayed reaction to it especially when you are full of adrenaline

 

[leelee]

Love him because he's ours. If he wasn't.. I'd hate him.

I find a player ball juggling in play is much less antagonistic (to me) than a player running to the corner flag and just shielding. Or a GK catching the ball and then falling down (E.g. Pickford) and lying on the floor wasting time. The juggling is entertaining, the other two are plain time wasting.

 

[dirtyh]

Even without the shithousing, he’s quality. Loving him being here.

I always find the pain comes a few seconds later. We must have different sets?

 

[Dakes]

Let's not forget Firminho constantly doing his 'no-look' goals when he has an open net or rounded the keeper. Liverpool pundits go wild for that pisstake. I found the commentary laughable.

I think most people are used to identifying Spurs with a certain mentality, a weak one. We are supposed to be nervy even when leading. A Spurs player doing keepy uppies during a game?! Blasphemy! Audacious!

Actions such as that of Richie will surely rattle many.

I look forward to seeing more attitude from our players.

Especially if the impact isn't full on,, like when they get grazed. Takes a few seconds to kick in.

Commentators: "The Premier League is the most entertaining league in the world!"
*Player does something entertaining*
Commentators: "How dare he be so disrespectful!?"

 

[michaelj70]

My ONLY complaint with him is his name Why doesn't he have a Brazilian snappy one
Has he got a nickname yet ?

Charlie's the man

Kane and Hojbjerg also made the most of tackles to eat away the clock so no different to Richarlison. It's just gamesmanship.

Kane was being brutalised by some of the forest players out there and some people complain about a few kick ups.

What I saw was a good footballing side that played with no strikers and didn't really threaten that much.

And after about 70 minutes lost their discipline and started kicking players. Why not focus on the endless yellow cards that were given to nf players rather than Richarlison?

I think its more that he was genuinely kicked in the balls, there's not many that will have that happen and not roll around on the floor. There's plenty of times he does go over the top but that wasn't one of them.
