Alan Shearer has said on Match of the Day on BBC One that Tottenham Hotspur forward Richarlison was “superb” against Fulham at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League on Saturday.
The Newcastle United legend believes that other than scoring a goal, Richarlison did everything else well for Tottenham in the London derby against Fulham.
The Brazil international forward provided the assist for the first goal in the 40th minute.
Richarlison also had a goal ruled out.
It was the former Watford’s star first start for Tottenham following his move from Everton in the summer transfer window.

Shearer said about Richarlison: “He did everything else. He was superb. Everything he did was spot-on. He ran in behind, made it difficult for the defenders.”
Encouraging
In our view, Richarlison was one of the best players for Tottenham Hotspur against Fulham in the London derby on Saturday afternoon.
The Brazilian worked hard in attack and connected well with his teammates, especially with Harry Kane.
The way that Richarlison celebrated his goal which was eventually ruled out showed just how much it means to him to do well for Tottenham.
The Brazilian is just getting started at Tottenham, who are a better team with him in it.
Tottenham have signed a real gem in Richarlison.
