Supporters of Everton reacted following the injury update from Carlo Ancelotti which revealed that Richarlison would miss the clash with West Ham United.
In Friday’s press conference, the 60-year-old Italian revealed that Richarlison had a “minor” problem and will hopefully be fit for Tuesday (as per Everton), which has supporters reacting.

Should Moise Kean start against West Ham United following injury to Richarlison?Yes, he's the next best optionNo, he's just not good enough |
So far this term, the Toffees’ Brazilian attacker has featured in 27 games in all competitions for the Merseyside club, in which he has scored ten goals and assisted four (as per Transfermarkt).
Having bagged the winning goal in the club’s most recent clash, a 1-0 victory over Brighton and Hove Albion (as per BBC), fans shared their opinions, with many talking up Moise Kean.
Gutted. Big chance for Kean

This is the start Moise Kean has been waiting for. Hopefully he can grab his first goal this weekend and kick start his Everton career.
Gutted Gylfi is out, I’ve gotten quite used to seeing 10 players play over the last few months.

What do we think?
As many Everton supporters have suggested, Richarlison’s injury could present a real chance for the 19-year-old striker, Kean, to kickstart his career at Goodison Park.
With no goals and one assist in 20 games for the Toffees (per Transfermarkt), it is clear that Kean is not firing on all cylinders just yet and hopefully the game against the Hammers can be the start of something.
