Confirmed Signing Richarlison

[sarath]

That's not even close to being true.

He made 5 blocks last season - https://www.premierleague.com/stats/top/players/outfielder_block

 

[Bob Latchford]

To be fair if he'd kept up the performances from his first 10 or so games, there's zero chance he'd be joining us.

Very fair point.
Speaks to his potential and the market we find ourselves in regarding new players

...Wiko has him at 5ft 10in. I thought he was taller than that.

He looks about 6 ft 1 to me mate.

 

[N.S.N.O.]

That isn't the point of a DoF.

A DoF is not a scout.

Brands is the Director of Football, not a scout

He's in charge of Player recruitment no?....all I've heard about the man was he was responsible for identifying, signing & developing young talent in Holland, and selling those players on for big profits... Scouting is the most important aspect of this, so effectively he did play the role as scout in Holland.... That's what got him our gig.... The same as Steve Walsh last year, Moshiri wanted someone who could identify young talent before the big clubs....
Obviously theres more to his role as DoF, but nothing more important than transfers.... Hell he was supposed to be responsible for the appointment of our new manager, and just picked the guy Moshiri already wanted..

Quick and maybe pointless comparison to players in a similar position and their stats at the same age.

Most playing for the top or one of the top teams in their respective leagues with the exception of Alexis Sanchez.

These stats are interesting, but all they show is that Richarlinson currently isn't probably worth 200 million (which is around what all the above would go for).

He looks about 6 ft 1 to me mate.

..yep, he does. Not having that 5ft 10in.

 

[Nymzee]

..yep, he does. Not having that 5ft 10in.

6ft I reckon

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

..yep, he does. Not having that 5ft 10in.

As a 5ft 10er, not a chance he’s the same height as me. 6ft 1in at least.

Yeah, I did qualify why I put them up and to be fair on the lad, given everything, he’s done quite well.

There’s plenty of talk about how much his form fell away but so did Watford’s and half of their team ..... and their manager.....

Remember his goal against us? It was pure sex.

5ft10 then

 

[Berenger]

Read a seemingly sensible short article on him the other day (written before his second half of the season!): https://investobet.com/blog/richarl...atford-could-he-make-brazil-s-world-cup-squad

Even more surprising was that it turned out to be written by Tim Vickery.

I rate him. Was the only bit of class at Watford. Very young. High ceiling

Bring Ricky home
