He gets so much hate and has continued to get criticism this year, admittedly he should have a few more goals or at least shots on frame he’s put out of play, but Richardson has 1 goal and 3 assists this season. He had 1 goal and 3 assists all last season, so he’s definitely improving.
I wholeheartedly agree. I think there’s a lot of recency bias from last season that carries over in the discussion surrounding Richarlison’s performances this season, there is still room for him to improve for sure, but he’s come a long way from last season. His link-up play with Son has been really good, and if his finishing takes that extra step forward I think the narrative surrounding him could change drastically.
