Richarlison has made a fine start at Goodison Park since joining Everton in the summer transfer window.

David Moyes has told Super Sunday, which was broadcast on Sky Sports on 16th September, that Everton have made some questionable signings in recent times.

Moyes believes that Everton’s recruitment has actually not suited them lately, with some of the signings not fitting the mould of players who the Goodison Park crowd enjoy watching.

But Moyes has suggested that he believes the addition of Richarlison will be a good one for Marco Silva’s side.

Moyes said: “I don’t know who made all the signings over the last few years. You live and die by your recruitment. You’ve got to get it right.

“I think there’s a lot of players come into Everton who aren’t Everton type players, but I’ve got to say that Richarlison was a great player for Watford and I think he’s got a real chance of improving as well.”

Richarlison has certainly made a bright start at Everton, after scoring three times in his first few appearances.

The Brazilian has been suspended for Everton’s last three matches though, and he was badly missed yesterday.

The Toffees were beaten 3-1 by West Ham United, and they lacked a cutting edge going forward.

Richarlison netted twice for Brazil’s national team in midweek, on his first start, so he should return to Everton’s line-up full of confidence.

The Toffees are next in action on Sunday, when they take on Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
