Everton will look to end their run of bad form when they take on Fulham later today at Goodison Park.
The Toffees have struggled of late, losing back-to-back games against West Ham and Arsenal, and the team’s attackers have since come under fire for wasting a tonne of opportunities.
Cenk Tosun, specifically, has looked out of sorts with manager Marco Silva recently confirming he could replace the Turkey international up front with summer signing Richarlison.
“Richarlison has worked some moments this week as a striker [in training],” Silva told the Daily Mirror. “It is not a position where he has played many, many times. He played sometimes in Brazil in that position and maybe two or three games in the Premier League.”
As Silva has alluded to, centre-forward is not a position Richarlison has frequently played in. However, he is certainly capable of doing so and given Tosun’s current struggles in front of goal, it is something definitely worth considering for the Portuguese coach.
Have a look at what Everton supporters are saying on Richarlison potentially playing up front below…
Worth a try if don’t work change it

Yes, he can afford to do so at home against Fulham – best time to try and do it as he hasn't Tosun or Niasse in full flight at the moment and the young lad is best sent off on loan in January.

Yes, but with Bernard in the XI.
