Trix has just posted that he’s one we’re looking at, but opinions are divided, which personally I understand.

heard on talk sport this guy has the most shots (possibly on target too) in the league, after Kane and Salah. I think he is someone poch could really improve too

His shooting isn't great. 68 shots, 5 goals. Townsend has a better shot accuracy.

How similar is he to sessegnon
Not at all similar. Richarlison would play as any of the front 3 behind the striker, and even as an emergency striker. Very dynamic creative player, a good runner, quick and skillful, good in the air and a grade A diver. I'd be happy with him, its crazy to think he is only 20.

He's not leaving in January anyway. He's been there half a season and contracted until 2022. It would take a ridiculous fee for Watford to let him go. Unless he has some kind of clause of course.

I agree with the we need to see more of him before bidding.

Started of great but been hit and miss lately and Tbh wouldn’t be the first to come make a good impact then disappear.

I’ve only seen highlights of him but in that limited time I must’ve seen him miss about 5 absolute sitters. There doesn’t seem to be any middle ground with him, he does some unbelievable stuff and some shocking stuff. Certainly got potential but I can’t see him going anywhere in jan.

Tbf the inconsistency is absolutely normal for a player that age, and at least he is getting himself in the positions to miss those sitters.

Ofcourse its a no go this window, of course he could be a flash in the pan, but in the context of a 20 year old player having just moved into a completely new culture his season so far has been seriously impressive.

To me he's basically Zaha four years younger, Poch can shape him into what he wants. Hope if Poch wants him we dont mess around.

That’s shocking. I think I was impressed more by the fact he seems to get himself in good positions, and like someone said he is a raw talent. Seen him miss more than a few sitters but I think that can get trained out of him. He would be my top pick of players that wouldn’t cost The earth. A few years time I reckon he could be a serious player with the right coaching.

We supporters have a tendency to knit pick at potential players, and when they move on and do well somewhere else we then moan

There was someone on here that marked Richarlison out as one to watch when Watford signed him in the summer. I haven't watched any Watford games this season so have no clue about him.
