Jack Wilshere has dramatically gone from labelling Richarlison a "top, top player" to someone who wouldn't make into Arsenal's starting XI - just as his transfer to Tottenham was confirmed.
The 25-year-old striker completed a £60 million switch from Everton on Friday, only eight days after Wilshere claimed that he'd like to see Richarlison sign for his former club. The Brazilian was lauded by the ex-Gunners midfielder before rumours of a move to Tottenham intensified, rating a hypothetical deal which would've seen him join Arsenal at eight out of 10.
Now, though, Wilshere reckons Richarlison would only make the bench as part of Mikel Arteta's side, declaring on TalkSPORT: "I don't think he gets in the XI. He'd definitely challenge for it and be a good part of the squad but I don't think he gets in the XI."
