Former Arsenal striker Alan Smith has predicted new Tottenham Hotspur signing Richarlison to be the flop of the season in the Premier League. Smith believes the Brazilian is talented but is unsure how he will work with Antonio Conte. Tottenham Hotspur beat off interest from various clubs, including Arsenal, this summer to sign Richarlison from Everton for £60 million. The former Everton forward was keen on moving and joined the London side this summer. Richarlison missed the first game of the season as he was handed a one-match suspension for throwing a flare back into the stands last season.

Who'll live up to their price tag and who'll flop this season? Darwin Nunez - £85M Richarlison - £60M Erling Haaland - £51.1M Kalvin Phillips - £50M Raheem Sterling £47.5M Gabriel Jesus £45M? Who'll live up to their price tag and who'll flop this season? https://t.co/xEYSuKIasM Smith was talking to the 90min YouTube channel when he claimed Richarlison was going to be the flop of the season. He added that the Arsenal fans would love him for making the prediction and said: "I'm going to say Richarlison, Arsenal fans will love that. He's clearly a talented lad and he was leading the line on his own for Everton, dragging them forward at times almost single-handedly but I don't know. It will be interesting the dynamic between him and his manager Conte." Tottenham were urged not to sign Arsenal target Former Tottenham forward Teddy Sheringham had urged Spurs not to sign Arsenal target Richarlison this summer. Spurs have already signed Ivan Perisic, Fraser Forster, Yves Bissouma, Djed Spence and Clément Lenglet on loan this summer. Sheringham believed that Spurs' forward line was stacked and did not need reinforcements. He told Lord Ping back in June (as quoted by The Express): "I don't think he's what is needed now. Tottenham have got good attacking players; Kane, Son, Kulusevski, Bergwijn is still there, Moura is still there. We've got players in the Richarlison mould and I don't think he would be a statement signing that would get teams worried. If they were to sign him, what would the result be?" "In my day, when we signed [Jurgen] Klinsmann, a proper world-class player, everyone in the dressing room was buzzing. We knew what we were going to get from him. You need players that are going to take you to the next level and I don't think Richarlison is one of them."

He is an unbelievable player. And he's good for the next eight years. He's the man to take us to the next level." Tottenham started the season with a 4-1 win over Southampton on August 6. Antonio Conte's side are now set to face Chelsea this weekend (August 14). Paul Merson predicts Arsenal vs Liverpool and other EPL GW 10 fixtures!
