    I think the biggest improvement would be if the club revoked his media privileges for a while. He seems to provide a weekly commentary to the Brazilian media and he doesn't seem to appreciate how those quotes can be used against him or twisted.

    I actually like Richy's attitude, it shows he cares about something. Even if it's only caring about himself, it means he will work bloody hard to get what he wants; and in this point in time, him working hard on the field can benefit us greatly.

    He is in awful form at the moment, and his confidence is at a real low. However, we all know he has the capability of tearing down wing-backs, so it literally comes down to him being so young and inexperienced in the Prem. I think once he begins to accept Javi Gracia (it may take time), we'll see a different Richy/ the one we saw earlier in the season. Of course, that's if he and Javi are both still with us next season.

    On another note, I'm not sure if Gomes is helping the situation. I've got a feeeling that he wasn't so happy with Silva's dismissal either.

    I think his form will prove once the clocks spring forward. I am sure it's light depravation that has seen him fail to impress since October

    Such a shame that he is so easily distracted by talk of a move rather than realising that if he gets his head down and fulfills his potential, the move will come to him.

    Wouldn't be even slightly bothered at the moment if he moved on. I'm sure there is a good player in there, but I don't think he has the right attitude and his form has absolutely nosedived since November. Not even a starter for us at the moment. He should get his head down and focus on playing well for us.

    i think he could come good, but as it stands his finishing is abysmal.

    In my view, he has come across really quite well in the 5 minute video presentation that has just been released on the fishal site.
    Seems to be settling in nicely here, and no implications of wanting to move on, not that they would show anything like that of course.

    Also a nice bit of Propaganda from the club, putting out the message (to Everton) that he’s happy here...for now.

    The law of agents says they can be as underhand as they like, except in cases where a cheesy promo video has been released by their player's club. In which case all bets are off and their hands are tied. All potential suitors also receive a copy by DVD and are required to play it at their next board meeting so they're aware of the player's unavailability.

    Seriously, that wasn't Ssssilva driving in the opening sequence, was it?

    Reminiscent of those Mystery Guest vids on A Question of Sport.

    A lot of back of ear close up, the classic eyes in the rear view mirror.

    It was always Matt le Tissier washing his car in my day, a cheery wave at the big reveal.

    I seem to recall in Shoot magazine when they had player interviews, they always answered "Steak and chips" under their favourite meal and "Lager" under their favourite drink. Every player without exception.

    It's true and Joe Corrigan most wanted to meet The Pope!
    They all disliked 'smoking' and 'ignorant people' too.

    Odds down from 33-1 to 4-1 that he's off to Merseyside.

    Since Fekir's move collapsed Liverpool are looking elsewhere and appear to have our boy in their sights. Maybe.

    https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/972995/Liverpool-transfer-news-Richarlison-deal-Paddy-Power-slash

    Jurgen Klopp is desperate to add another creative spark to his attacking unit after Liverpoolfinished fourth in the Premier League and reached the Champions League final.

    He needs alternatives to Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane.

    Fekir was his top target but a move collapsed over the weekend and Liverpool have now moved on to alternative targets.

    They look close to signing Stoke’s Xherdan Shaqiri, but now appear to be leading the race for Watford ace Richarlison too.

    Paddy Power have slashed their price from 33/1 to 4/1 on the Brazilian forward moving to Anfield this summer.

    Only way he's going to Liverpool is if he kicks up a stink and wants out (Wouldn't be surprised if he does) and Liverpool come in for a 35 mill+ bid - more fool them if they do.

    I think he'll come good again after this Summer break. We should hold off unless there is a monster bid but I just don't see one coming in after the second half of last season.

    He’s not ready yet to play for a top 4, Deulofooo would have been a more consistent more experienced choice for Liverpuddle

    I think we should hold on to him if we can.
    I certainly don't think we should even contemplate any offers below 120 million.

    Player + cash deal with Danny Ings coming the other way might work?

    Nah, busted flush I reckon. Ings is bursting with energy now after 4 years rest. Goal machine.
