Richarlison will ultimately be judged on the amount of goals he scores for Tottenham after his £60million move from Everton last summer. That is indeed the case for all strikers in the game, with the spotlight very much shining on those who cost an eye-watering sum.
Making a real impression on Merseyside in his four years with the Toffees, the Brazilian has showed glimpses of his quality in his short time with Spurs but very little has fallen his way in the final third so far. To date, the 25-year-old only has two goals for his new club, both of which came against Marseille in the Champions League at the start of September.
The goal drought will of course come to an end at some point but Richarlison displayed another side of his game against Chelsea that will have been very much appreciated by all of his Tottenham teammates and the coaching staff. Starting on the left of the front three alongside Harry Kane and Dejan Kulusevski, Brazil's No.9 not only played his part in attack but he more than did his fair share at the other end of the pitch to help nullify the threat of Reece James and Hakim Ziyech down Chelsea's right flank.
