There’s a lot of silly snobbery when it comes to players in the PL. For some reason if a player comes from Europe it always feels more exciting. Said to people 2 years ago about Arnautovic and got laughed at. Many had same response to Shaqiri this season. Have to admit I didn’t see it in Richarlison, ok they paid top dollar but wouldn’t surprise me if he is a £60m player in 2 years. Rice is definitely worth a look, not totally convinced though. But I think there’s lots of little gems in the PL go unspoken about because of snobbery.
After watching Richarlson against Arsenal I wouldn't want him here right now. He made the wrong decision 80% of the time. If that had been better along with his finishing then Everton would have won that game. We need a play who can already make the right decisions now but has the ability to kick on. Its why its so difficult for us to find the right players. (not saying no players in is good though obvs).
