He joined a team with the golden boot winner alongside the England captain. His no goals in the league this season hasn't helped him Most footballers (professional athletes in general) have irrational confidence bordering on arrogance so likely not.

Didn’t see any of the issues on the bench at the weekend so can’t really comment on that but he’s had injuries and been mismanaged by Conte all season. With the right manager, he could really work in this Spurs team as him and Kane could be lethal. Shame the rest of their team is abject Aye one of the reasons he was very popular at everton was he's apparently a real good egg. Lets not forget he was one of very few in the brazil squad who was publicly anti Bolsonaro.

Also what makes him such a good striker tbh. He's Brazil's no 1 striker, he has a proven pedigree in the premier as well. It looks like petulance, but he should probably be at a club where he's first choice. Spurs was a poor choice in hindsight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s way too good to be sitting on the bench while Spurs stink up the league. But Son won the golden boot last year and Kulusevski was brilliant.

I haven't watched any games at all so idk the situation but i absolutely think he believed he would get more game time than he seemingly has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From his side he obviously thinks he's top man and would become that at Spurs as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah Kulusevski has been there since last January. I can't remember Richarlison playing much on the right anyway, so really he would be competing with Kane and Son, which he can't have expected to be the main man Edited April 25, 2023 by joeyt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 1 hour ago, Yorkie said: I'm willing to accept that 'Spurs in disarray' is the bigger story here but if you're spending seven minutes talking about that game, I'd expect at least two references to Willock's disgusting pass. I presume you're talking about Tifo here? Absolutely woeful like. "Newcastle pressed well and took their chances" was the entirety of the analysis on us in a 7 minute segment about a 6-1 win in which Newcastle were 5-0 up in 21 minutes. Last week they featured us for the first time in months and it was as part of a 3-0 loss, then they feature our match this week and don't mention us at all. And it's not a woe-is-Newcastle point at all, they and the media in general do this to other teams all the time. Brentford barely got a crumb of praise for botting Man United 4-0 earlier in the season and that's just one example. Thank fuck they're axing the Tifo Podcast. Fucking shite.

prefabtoon Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 And to think Spurs forked out €58M for Richarlison, And Isak cost us around the same. That must really stick in Levys throat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Don't want to know what Bruno and big Joe think about it all lol for fear of disappointment) Bit of a digression, but I feel top athletes from Brazilians that often comes from a very poor background are more susceptible to right wing ideology since they themselves in many cases are a living example of "pulling yourself up by the boot straps" (on the surface at least) and think if they can do it, everyone can. I don't think many of them reflect very much on it, so even if Joelinton & Bruno did support him it's nothing I would hold against them further than disagreeing with them compared to people I know are more politically interested/engaged who supports him.

Yorkie Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 @Kid Icarus I was, but only based on your initial review - I certainly won't bother listening to it. Not least because (despite its relevance to us this weekend) there's no story I find more tediously dull than 'Big 6 team X are shite at the moment aren't they;' whether it's Spurs, ManU, fucking whoever. I could not give a shiny shite. It proper ties into the bullshit elitist narrative, even if they're crowing about what a basket case they may be. I don't share the same levels of disdain for TiFo as you do but if it's being replaced with something better that's definitely good news. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah i can understand that somewhat. It's just bolsonaro is fairly...um extreme but can let go with most players not being too engaged. It's mainly really neymar being very close to him, claiming a pious social conservatism while fucking everything that moves in wild parties etc etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
