To replace Richarlison up front, TalkSPORT analyst Gabby Agbonlahor has advised Tottenham to recruit a new striker.
Spurs’ significant victory against Everton over the weekend propelled them back into the top four. Although Agbonlahor thinks Ange Postecoglou needs a new striker in January, they are in a wonderful position right now at Christmas.
Tottenham’s Gabby Agbonlahor Richarlison
Richarlison, according to Gabby Agbonlahor, is not good enough for Tottenham.
Richarlison was acquired by Tottenham from Everton last year, but he had a terrible debut campaign.
In 35 appearances in all competitions, the Brazil international was only able to score three goals. Out of those, only one occurred in the Premier League.
With just one goal in his first ten league appearances this season, Richarlison also had a dismal start to the campaign. The 26-year-old was anticipated to have another challenging season, yet he is improving Tottenham.
After recovering from his surgery last month, Richarlison appears to be a completely different player. In his last three games, he has scored four goals, which is incredible.
Gabby Agbonlahor believes Spurs should buy a new striker in January to replace the Brazilian, however he is still not sold on the player.
“Richarlison might as well come sit next to me on a Monday night in my five-a-side, he’s not good enough, he’s not what Spurs need,” he stated on talkSPORT. “Spurs need a striker.”
Richarlison can now take the lead for Tottenham.
Since the beginning of the season, Son Heung-min has nearly carried Tottenham on his back offensively, but someone else will need to step up when the South Korean travels abroad to serve his nation next month.
We believe that man could be Richarlison.
The Brazilian strikingly resembles the guy we saw when he was a player at Everton. In addition to moving exceptionally well and appearing pain-free, he has scored four goals in his last three games, indicating that he is playing well.
Although there will always be people who mistrust Richarlison until he consistently performs, we firmly believe he is capable of leading Tottenham in the upcoming games and weeks.
