Everything wrong with Silva and his tactics. Our best goalscorer has the third highest successful tackle rate
Ffs.

 

[BlueToff]

The main difference is Richarlison can't act.

But he does exactly the same as the others do...

 

[BlueToff]

In his first season at watford he had the highest workrate in the team and i think made the most tackles...

@BlueToff do you have any toys which show his overall contribution to the team?

Hmm, I'll try have a look through some Opta stats when I have time mate

 

[Blue Roo]

Ey?
So he's the reason for us being crap now?

C'mon BT, there's a multitude of reasons for us being crap.

But he is def a factor in the on field crappiness, as he is with some of the brilliance.

It'd be good to see that statistic/heat map of where he goes down, how many times, in what type of situations.
There has been too may times now, where the critical play was him either making the pass or beating his man, only to fall to the ground too easily, or more to the point, looking to go down. For the sake of the form and development of the team it has to stop.

He is the creator of his own misfortune...and the teams. By looking to win frees he has become marked as an easy target by the opposition to stop the Everton's attacking movements. Make no mistake, he is the main attacking threat, he's the record transfer, he's Silva's main man - yet the hindrance outweighs the brilliance. We can't have this in a side that struggles to get out of first/second gear.

Imo he has become a big a problem as Walcott - in not being able to get the ball to other players, in space, in very threatening positions.

Silva needs to abandon his pressing system and the DCL role and put Richarlison in the centre where his is most threatening and effective.
The tackling stat is an interesting one. Do we really want him to be the one at the top of those stats. Surely its affecting his ability to beat players one on one, as if he's become hard wired to contact rather than evading it.

Wonder if these stats include him tackling defenders while in possession of ball.

Maybe

 

[Blue Roo]

Maybe

Maybe we've found the solution to RB

 

[Blue Roo]

Would Silva drop him if he's continues
And the consequences for Silva if he drops him....or not dropping him?
The stakes are getting raised by the day.

Not quite, the others put a bit of doubt in a referees mind, they don't hold their head for example (why does he do that?), he also very rarely does it in areas of the pitch which will make a difference.

Also Richarlison does get touched most of the time unlike others who are blatantly diving, he play acts far to vigorously though.

Hope he wins us about 3 pens on Saturday by being very theatrical

 

[Somerset Blue]

He’s infuriating to watch, being ignored by refs for his theatrics and needs to learn that staying on his feet will benefit him and the team.

This could easily influence real time decisions, but should exclude VAR. He didn't get those pens via VAR because the referees are corrupt. No other explanation.

 

[Tel001]

That's just his face. Some people look constantly angry.

I know .. I’m often told the same thing.

Thats exceptional

Just what I want in a CF ... almost as impressive as DCL9 heat map , resting heart rate and zone 14 stats.
