You compared two forwards in everything except goals and assists

What the heck is intensity and multiple roles?

Intensity has to do with the force/pressure the player brings to the game. Running, on or off the ball.

They are not mates.

Multiple roles has to do with adaptation to tactical variations. Richarlison can play multiple roles comfortably on the forward lines and even deep forward roles.
Attacks comfortably with both feet and good in the air.

“He (Richarlison) is a top player, very fast and goes right and left, that’s why they paid a lot of money for him.”... Guardiola

The very fast has to do with his intensity.
The right and left has to do with his multiple roles.


Not mentioned was his work rate which is operating at a high intensity for a long time.

Goals/90- Pulisic

Passes completed- Pulisic

Pressing/90- Pulisic

Tackles in the defensive third/90- Pulisic
Touches/90- Pulisic

Richarlison- 3070min played
Pulisic- 1722min played

Richarlison played 1348min more than Pulisic last season so yea I'll take Pulisic ahead of him

The English coaches has always been bias when it comes to selection
I hope the boiz wey full my club, Arsenal get sense if atall they really want an international career. Its their choice tho. Seeing how Ings is treated should send signals to them. All the best.


When i saw Grealish as winger, naik i know say Southgate na Carpinta.


Once again, Bravo to Rohr. At least he knows what he's doing.

And who told you Pulisic doesn't have these attributes?
Pulisic doesn't even defend like Richarlison. Yet Richarlison can recover so fast to be in an attacking position that Pulisic would be before a counter and still impact the attack.

Numberd favour Pulisic tho. But better? Naaaah

our boys are so lazy and lack ambition, it is just about the money
I use to bash Mikel daily when he was at Chelsea for not learning even freekick for this team mates that were expert at it
Its worrisome o. Very.

See defenders in EPL stepping up to contest fks with superb freekick takers and they are likely to score more. Not this usual luck fk thing, but part of their technical abilities...... I dunno who needs to sound this bell o. Cos its not good atall.



I do study our opponents when SE eants to take a setpiece of freekicks, they don't really bother much. Like they know its no good. SE don't know they study our clips too ni?


I hope the new boys change this fading ability. We need it badly.


That Mikel own sef.... (hesitates)

I disagree, during the last Afcon we scored twice from corner kick. Do you think it's by sheer luck?

While Richarlison has great work rate, his defensive actions are not needed in a team that press. Asides Kovacic, I don't think any other player was more involved in counter attack buildup than Pulisic for Chelsea last season

As a forward Pulisic is a better player

I think that intensity in his play is what manu miss. I am blown away any time i watch Richarlison take those runs round the pitch.

However, I will like to see what Ancelotti will do with respect to directing his forward play and increasing his conversion rate. Because, sometimes Richarlison can be all over the place.

Man city presses but require lots of work rate defensively from Gabriel Jesus.
