Tottenham: Thomas Frank reveals plan for Richarlison as Spurs bid to limit Brazilian's injury risk
Thomas Frank warned Tottenham must be cautious with Richarlison ’s fitness as he called for patience after the forward’s brace against Burnley. Richarlison led the line as Spurs began the Premier League season with a 3-0 win over the Clarets and scored the first two goals of the match.
Richarlison has scored nine goals in his past nine starts for Tottenham, suggesting his has the potential to be a consistent threat
Thomas Frank hailed Richarlison after the striker's double, which included a memorable scissor-kick, earned Spurs a 3-0 win over Burnley.
Richarlison’s two-goal effort leads Spurs past Burnley 3-0 in Thomas Frank’s debut, with Brennan Johnson scoring and J.J. Watt in attendance.
Frank used a 4-2-3-1 formation but, surprisingly, Lucas Bergvall was the most advanced midfielder. He pressed Burnley’s defence along with Richarlison and went on a couple of impressive driving runs with the ball. Throughout pre-season, Pape Matar Sarr tended to be the most advanced midfielder.
Thomas Frank’s men stormed to an early lead, with new signing Mohammed Kudus assisting Richarlison for his first. Lightning then struck twice when the pair linked up once more for a strike which could already be up for goal of the season.
Richarlison has explained why he snubbed a handshake from Gabriel Martinelli and clashed with Aaron Ramsdale in the north London derby.
