Tottenham fans reacted after Richarlison picked up yet another injury during the 4-0 loss to Liverpool in the Carabao Cup.
Tottenham crashed out of the Carabao Cup after a heavy 4-0 defeat to Liverpool, despite holding a 1-0 advantage from the first leg.
Goals from Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Virgil van Dijk secured Arne Slot’s side a place at Wembley.
Richarlison started the game with Dominic Solanke still sidelined, but his night was short-lived. He was caught up in early controversy when Virgil van Dijk was lucky to avoid a red card for an elbow—an incident former PGMOL chief Keith Hackett believes warranted some punishment.
The Brazilian’s night went from bad to worse as he was forced off before halftime with an injury, making way for new signing Mathys Tel.

Following Dragusin’s injury, frustrated Tottenham fans claimed they are “cursed” due to injury struggles biting relentlessly.
Tottenham
Despite their Carabao Cup exit to Liverpool and a disappointing 14th-place position in the Premier League, the club’s hierarchy remains supportive of Ange Postecoglou.
Football Insider previously reported that Spurs’ board is aware of the injury issues and committed to Postecoglou until key players return to full fitness.
Tottenham fans lose faith in Richarlison
The Brazilian striker remained at Spurs through the January transfer window, but Football Insider previously reported that Richarlison wants to leave Tottenham amid interest from the Saudi Pro League.
Injuries have plagued his time at the club fuelling speculation that his future may lie elsewhere. Having already missed 27 games this season—on top of 10 last season—his latest setback has only added to fan frustration.
Many Spurs supporters have now run out of patience, with one fan calling for the club to “rip his contract up” and another saying he “has to be sold” following his injury.
Just rip his contract up, no one is going to go near him..

Honestly we need to sell Richarlison as soon as possible
He cannot play 5 games in a row without getting injured
It’s ridiculous – he must have something wrong with his body
