However, he has played more often this term compared to last time around, and has popped up with vital goals and assists.
Asked if Richarlison was now settled, Postecoglou stated: Richy has been really good for us this year. You've got to remember when I took over he had scored one goal for the club and for all intents and purposes, the jury was pretty much out on him in terms of any contribution.
He has got in the double figures this year I am pretty sure and he has missed a huge chunk of it, but every time he has played he has looked effective like he did against Liverpool. He scored a good goal, set up the second, been unlucky on a couple of other occasions one Alisson save and one Joe cleared off the line.
Like I said, he has been really effective for us and I think the way we play suits him to a great degree and that's why he has got the goals, but he's also worked hard himself. It's unfortunate he's had a season which is reflective of a lot of players where we have never had them for a huge chunk of time consistently."
