I know Richardson has been a bit off form lately but I don’t think that you can criticise his work rate an commitment. His tracking back and helping out his full back has been outstanding and also how many clearing headers has he made in our own box . He is possibly trying too hard to get a goal himself when attacking to try and get out of his slump . To me he does not look like a player who doesn’t want to be here just one who is frustrated by his own form which will eventually turn around.

HT he just seems to have lost a yard of pace as he's not going passed defenders like he used to. Now perhaps this will come back with more games, I hope so.
I agree he is doing his bit in defence, but that's not really where I want to see him. I would like to see him getting a little closer to DCL, and have him playing off him more. The amount of headers that guy wins and we never have a player in position to benefit from them. Richarlison could be that player.

He doesn’t look fit, he doesn’t look interested, He doesn’t want to play others in, he is always looking for a foul, and he has always got a angry face on him like he doesn’t love the game of football
I would drop him and bring in some else that loves playing for Everton.

I honestly don't get it with Richy, he has the talent and when he wants, the pace too. . . like I said ''when he wants''
Surely if he 'isn't' happy with something at EFC it would have been discussed by now?
I can only imagine it is something within his own capacity as a grown man to deal with? and if it is he's struggling imo.

Personally I'd sell richy. he's massively overated and sulks far too much. Use the money to buy a class striker and play two up front. We need goals. We need creativity and players who can find space. As you say its "when he wants" and that's becoming very few and far between.
Hes scored 2 goals all season. he's stopped looking for other players in the box and every chance he wastes seems to affect him even more. He's not happy so get rid. We need players who give 100 percent every game! That Newcastle game laid bare our mentality. we shouldve put them to the sword but there wasn't 1 player who showed any desire to follow james' enthusiasm. Lazy overpaid players just walking round the pitch leaving dom isolated. We should be doing all we can to achieve champions league qualification this season as its so wide open but yet again we stroll around with no urgency whatsoever. I'm sick of it! Sell these players and get in some hard workers. They don't need to be superstars. They just need to have the heart to want to win every game.

As Carlo says Richy is ballon dor winner in the making reminds me so much of Ronaldo and possibly has same traits mannerisms and is trying too hard to score. If we sell now will surely soon regret it. He will come good.

With Richarlison he is getting kicked, everytime he has the ball, players know they can get away with it, all the pundits hilight Richarlison going down easy, which in some cases he does, he is not getting any protection from the refs.

I suppose in some cases he has made a rod for his own back, clutching his face or his shin on a lot of tackles.

Players now know refs just wave play on, so the sly tackles are getting slyer.

Why should the refs protect him, they don’t protect Rashford, Sala or Sun, he needs to man up and stop looking for the foul all the time and play with a smile on his face as he does earn £400k per month, he has all the capabilities of a great player but is certainly not showing it this season.
