Willian

[dashsnow17]

Don't say that, you might drive him to do something mad.

He's a nothing player, just a hit and run merchant.

Anyone been to Goa btw? Would love to go if it’s the hedonistic paradise it’s made out to be.

Nice picture of him at your local club.

 

[El Duderino]

This is from when you got to watch him live for the first time?

 

[Hunta]

I can take a comment prefaced by 'I highly doubt ...' because then that is your opinion, but I take issue with you or anyone else presenting their opinions as fact

I apologise for my actions.

I think it makes sense. A player of his quality for £18m over 3 years, we cant find that anywhere else. Now we go for Partey and maybe a CB if we can sell enough!

Man’s best days are behind him. be very surprised if he can stay fit for a season

Aren't 30% of Goa's Yelp reviews written by you? Hm.

He's just had his best season for a while. Its our least important signing/position in terms of what we need so the window as a whole could still be great when you take our budget into account.

Arsenal Mania acting likes he’s Benjamin Button though.

The opposite of this is the truth
The old forum with the lobby was trash

Bet you're a Tory

What's a troy? This forum was decent when we had a lobby. It went to **** after the lobby was gone.

Hasn't Luiz supposedly cost £24m for 1 season? If that's true I'd imagine Willian will cost a lot more over 3 seasons.

Very fair comment, I’m just convinced Ziyech can make it in the PL after watching him in his 4 games vs Sp**s and Chelsea. Ajax didn’t get the results they wanted, but he was the best player in all them games, it’s what made Chelsea buy him. I wish we signed him.

I like Ziyech and he did play well in those games. However, they are European games, at night with continental referees. Very different from an english refereed game during the day on a weekly basis. Think about the fixture congestion, look at the physical challenges Pepe dealt with, look at the pace of the league and the step up from the Dutch league to the Premier League. Its massive. Not saying he won't adapt, but he will need time. I think it will also be harder as I don't rate Lampard. He wont know how to develop the talent he has at his disposal, let alone make them gel.

In regards to Willian. I don't think Arteta has plans to move Auba to the cf position. What is the obsession with it? Is he not scoring enough? Could Wllian play as the 8?

That being said, if Arteta wants him I'm fine with it. He knows what he wants and how he wants to play.

It was bullshit.

+ Another set piece specialist to add to our ranks

I think this is a very important point. We literally don't have anyone to take corners after we sent Özil to the bench.

Pepe’s corners are quality.

Yeah, except they're not. 38 voters don't want him and 37 don't want him on a long contract. Start telling the truth, ffs

Spot on, it's peanuts. Proven PL quality, arguably Chelsea's best player last season, rarely injured, at an age where he won't completely stifle Saka/Martinelli and fills a massive gap in the squad.

There is a reason Conte/Mourinho/Lampard all rate him highly, and that United/City/Barca are all (allegedly) interested.

 

[truth_hurts]

Gif time. We took Chelsea's heart on Saturday and their soul by taking their best player this season in Willian.

LONDON IS RED
