His sulkiness eclipses even Anelka and that's saying something. A decent footballer but if his countenance is as surly off the pitch as on it, one can only imagine the detrimental effect it will have on team spirit.

Hard to work out where he’ll play. Both him and Kane will want to be first team strikers and Spurs only play with one up top.

Is he that bad?
He looks a good player but I didn't know he had such a bad reputation?

If he didn’t spend so much time on the floor ,looking as though he ‘s been pole-axed , he wouldn’t be a bad player. I don’t rate him and wouldn’t want him in my team.

I'm guessing he will replace Bergwijn or Moura in the line-up as they play with a front 3 under Conte.

I'm going by his sullen disposition. He appears to be permanently pi**ed off when he's on the pitch. Have you ever seen him smile, even after he's scored ?

It took me 5 mins to find out that he would be a credit to any football team, both on and off the pitch, and I expect him to thrive under Conte.

Snippet from an article posted in The Athletic:
Richarlison was living at America Mineiro’s training ground when a shipment of clothing arrived with his name on it.
He was only a teenager, still just a ripple on the surface of the Brazilian game, but he had just agreed his first sponsorship deal with Nike. So they sent him tracksuits, training kit, shoes and boots, all shiny and box-fresh.
It would have been an exciting moment for any young player; for Richarlison, who had been selling ice lollies on dirt roads just a couple of years prior, it must have felt completely surreal. In the circumstances, he would have been forgiven for feeling a swell of pride, or even lording it over his team-mates. But no, that wasn’t Richarlison. Richarlison had other plans.
Quietly, he retreated to his room. He took all of his old clothes and stuffed them into a suitcase, then walked out of the main gate. The other kids in the dormitory had no idea what he was up to; when he returned, a couple of hours later, he still wouldn’t tell them. The truth only emerged later, after much pestering from his room-mate.
Richarlison had taken his belongings into town, to the centre of Belo Horizonte, and handed them out to homeless people. “He gave them everything, including the suitcase,” recalls Guilherme Xavier, one of his closest friends from the time.

"Whatever the future holds for him, he won’t change. That much is evident when you speak to those who carry memories of Richarlison in their hearts and minds.
“What really stays with me is his big heart,” concludes Marcao. “I once had the opportunity to go to Liverpool and see a few (Everton) games. He hosted us and gave us such a great reception. He was generous and attentive, with the sense of joy that he always had.
“We ate with him at the stadium after one of the matches. He took out his phone and showed me a video. It was of us working together at the Fluminense training ground, late one evening. Night was falling, but there we were, me, him and a goalkeeper, working on his finishing. He hadn’t forgotten it; he kept the memory with him, and the video is still on his phone, all these years later.
“That’s what makes the kid such a winner. He remembers his roots and the people who helped him get where he is today. Even though he is now strutting his stuff out in the big, wide world, he is still the Richarlison I knew. That is the best present you can receive as a coach.”
Honestly Mike, Moodybluebird should be permanently banned for this

Playing in the Champions League was his lifelong dream, and he got to share that special moment with his family.
