Richarlison has just one Premier League goal for Tottenham since signing last summer; forward said last week he will seek psychological help; Ange Postecoglou: Sometimes players fall into the trap of thinking their life should be perfect but that’s not how life works
"Who in their life doesn't have something that's stressful? I lost my father three years ago and he should have been here for the journey. I had to deal with that. One part of your life could be flying but there's always something.
"We think he's a footballer, he's got money - what's he got to complain about? There's plenty of people who we assume to have all the advantages in life who are pretty unhappy."For the most part, people understand that's the case and are empathetic. Sometimes people choose to ignore it because it makes a more impactful scenario. 'Fantastic footballer has problems' - they all do, mate. They all do.
"Footballers have got all the money they need and we think that’s a perfect life, but it doesn’t make you immune from life itself. I’m pretty sure everyone in our dressing room is dealing with something. "Sometimes players fall into the trap of thinking their life should be perfect because of the position they’re in, but that’s not how life works. It’s about keeping perspective and keeping a balance."Richarlison - who has started three of Spurs' four Premier League games as the No 9 following Harry Kane's departure - told Brazilian media last week:"I'm a happy team player on the pitch. I try to help as much as possible.
"Sometimes things don't go the way we want. I think this part is a bit of the off-field side that ended up getting in my way.
