I must be watching another game. Richarlson is an awkward, unconventional attacking player, who is being used quite (er, cleverly...) within a pretty raw, but effective attacking unit. Watford's team aren't full of artists, they are physical, athletic, and I fully commend their approach to the game... the manager has to take a lot of credit for utilizing the talents he has to form an effective team... that's excellent management, and I wonder whether some other 'top' managers could get Watford to be as dangerous and effective has Silva has. I actually like the initial look of the boy Hughes in midfield. BUT let's not get carried away here.
Richarlson's touch needs a lot of work, a lot... his decision making isn't great and technically, he seems to try many things that simply do not work... an attribute which seems to be something that some observers, fans and pundits increasingly think makes a player 'special'. This is one of Martial's problems.
Why are we so quick to state that these players are somehow far, far better than what they really area. He has talent, yes, but he is raw. A decent impact player. For now.
