Football fans have slammed Richarlison for his performance against Bournemouth on Saturday lunchtime.<\/p>\n
Tottenham Hotspur have started to get into the swing of things under Ange Postecoglou – but the Brazilian was still less than impressive as the Lilywhites claimed three more points.<\/p>\n
And one moment drew the fury of Spurs fans more than others, with Richarlison finding himself one-on-one with a golden opportunity to double Spurs' lead.<\/p>\n
However, Richarlison stumbled over the ball and wasn't able to direct his shot on target. Spurs fans were quick to vent their frustration towards the Brazilian on social media – with some even claiming he must be "cursed".<\/p>\n

"Since his debut for Tottenham, Richarlison has one Premier League goal…And we all know how pointless that goal was," a third fumed. And another added: "He\u2019s the worst striker in the league, Weghorst was better!"<\/p>\n

On the other end of the scale, James Maddison was fantastic for Spurs – and he opened the scoring at the Vitality Stadium.<\/p>\n
Bournemouth had no answer as Spurs continued to push for a second, and even Richarlison fluffing his lines didn't allow the Cherries a window to get back into the game.<\/p>\n
Dejan Kulusevski was finally able to double their lead in the second half, with Spurs now securing seven points from a possible nine in their opening three games.<\/p>\n
