  1. Gutted for him, and any other player who misses out in this international break but honestly? Fucking fantastic.

    ESPECIALLY with Richy. We cannot have even the faintest sniff at increased injury risk, with him or anyone else. This window is our best chance at getting healthy bodies back.

    I’m entirely confident Richy is going to be nothing short of a talisman in the next 2 months, and hopefully he plays himself back into contention for the WC itself with a point to prove.

    Carlo looks like he should be propping up the bar in my local Wetherspoon

    I love Richy and I know for a fact he’d score a screamer, but the only one you’re dropping there is Martinelli. Even then, Martinelli is better winger

  4. It’s been mentioned in the main thread that this is a very experimental Brazil squad so likely not much to read in to it.

    On the flip side, a Richarlison motivated to make the national team could be massive for us.

    Focus in our relegation battle. Anchelotti will see it.

    Can’t wait to see Richy getting the golden boot in the US.

    Relegation fight Richarlison in a World Cup year with a chip on his shoulder because of getting snubbed for the March internationals?

    Yeah he’s firing us to safety

    Good, makes it less likely he’ll get injured and hopefully he’ll maintain form and make the world cup for them once we’re safe

  8. Drop him now so he has to impress between now and the WC. 4D chess from Don Carlo

    Ancelotti secret Spurs supporter confirmed. Keeping Richi fit and making him even more motivated to win back his place? [chef’s kiss]

  10. Hopefully this will act as a bit of a reality check for some of our players. Their World Cup places are genuinely on the line if they don’t improve their form and Tottenham’s fortunes.

    I don’t think we’ll see Romero dropped(!) but I don’t see Porro as a certainty for Spain, and VdV if he doesn’t cap this ill discipline could be in trouble too.

    This is a good thing for us.

    This will give him even more motivation.

    You can get even more when a player has a point to prove.

    Big thanks to Don Carlos for letting Richy not risk anything and stay back to get rest and train

    Ah man I was hoping to see him at the friendly against Croatia in a few weeks

  14. Good. Avoid injury, get fit, score goals, save Spurs. Ancelloti will come begging.

    Sucks for him but good. Nice long rest after Forrest for what is going to be make or break for us.

  16. “Endrick” is such a good OG golden era Brazilian footballer name, I hope he makes it. No idea if Rayan or Luiz Henrique are any good… Martinelli can miss out for sure. Get the Pigeon on the plane!
