'This Season Has Been S***': Richarlison Hits Out at Antonio Conte | Football/Soccer

Richarlison blasted Tottenham manager Antonio Conte for not starting him on Wednesday evening after Spurs limped out of the Champions League with a goalless draw against AC Milan.

In an explosive interview after the game, Richarlison questioned Conte for dropping him to the bench after victories over West Ham and Chelsea.

He also admitted in the interview that it has been a 's*** season'.

'I didn't understand – I was playing well, we won against Chelsea and West Ham and suddenly I was on the bench. I played five minutes against Wolves, asked the reason and no-one told me why,' said the Brazilian.

'They asked me to take a fitness test in the gym and told me I was going to start if I passed it. And I was on the bench, there are things I can't understand. There was no explanation again, let's see what he (Conte) will tell us but I'm not silly – I'm a professional that works hard every day and I want to play.'

Richarlison came on as a substitute with 20 minutes remaining with Spurs needing a goal to force extra time but was unable to make a difference.

'There hasn't been enough minutes given to me. This season – and forgive my language – has been sh*t,' Richarlison added. 'That's what I didn't understand, too (being a substitute). It was going well, in a good sequence, two wins against West Ham and Chelsea.
