"Now, with Kolo Muani fit, the former Everton striker has had to make do with a place on the bench and failed to impress against FC Copenhagen in midweek, missing a penalty that another striker, Dane Scarlett, won. Competition is fierce, even for a Spurs side that registered 0.1 xG in the defeat to Chelsea the lowest by any Premier League team this season and speculation has already begun before the January transfer window."
"Jack Grealish is getting everything he wanted out of a loan move to Everton regular football, the freedom to express himself, the adoration of the crowd but the absence of a quality striker to finish his steady supply of final balls must be galling for a player desperate to regain his England place before the World Cup. From Erling Haaland to Beto and Thierno Barry is quite the drop-off"
Richarlison has struggled for goals at Tottenham, scoring once since August and missing a midweek penalty after losing his starting spot to Randal Kolo Muani. Tottenham recorded 0.1 xG in the Chelsea defeat, prompting transfer speculation linking Ivan Toney and Dusan Vlahovic and increasing pressure on Richarlison to make the most of limited minutes to retain his club place and Brazil World Cup contention. Jack Grealish has flourished on loan at Everton but lacks a reliable striker partner. Thierno Barry has missed clear chances, and Everton's forward options remain a notable weakness despite Grealish's creative contributions.
