People just hate on him for being himself… he’s my favourite player outside my club because he actually expresses himself on and off the pitch. People complain about players being ‘robotic’ and ‘PR trained’ but then when someone like Richarlison shows personality he gets abused… doesn’t make sense
Man, if your successful, the things you get praised for are astonishing lol.
Much love and respect for him. I’m glad he seeking help.
The guy with the grey shirt summed it up on its like being a footballer
Not saying this the case for Richarlison, but it would fit…the behaviour they are saying is a product of an exhuberant personality, someone being themselves, seems very much like the behaviour of someone who cannot control their emotions. They often appear to be reactive to the situation, rather than a considered expression of his personality. Recklessness is not a trait to be praised.
I am 100% for less media monkeys spouting the same lame safe, non commital quotes, the likes of Haaland and Ramsey (another vocal about his personal issues) are their enthusiastic selves without aggravating others by their actions.
I'm glad he's seeking help, is open about it, and hopefully he does get himself in a better place, as I hate to see players become disillusioned and lose their enjoyment of the game because of other factors.
To anyone who's ever been a victim of bullying / hate / violence because of their appearance, gender, orientation, race :
DO NOT ever let a hateful notion 'there's something wrong with me' sink in. Trust me, it's a recipe for self hatred, I've wasted half my life feeling it. When we suffer and we need a break, it's only natural to think: 'maybe if I wasn't 'different', if I was 'normal' I would be accepted. No, haters will always find something to pray upon. I've always had kinda androgynous look, which was a fuel for bullies when I was growing up. I embraced it, used it to my advantage in my acting / modeling career, I was almost the face of Leon in these new Resident Evil games 🙂 Remember; There's never anything wrong with you.
I ain’t buying it.. mental health is starting to be used as a bargaining cheap. Sad because it is a serious issue
