Willian

[Shakez 755]

We looked so good in possession with him. Some occasional frustrating stuff but apart from that he's been brilliant since the new year!

Heart of a champion today.

Ramires is pretty useless player when we have Willian in the middle. Would have been a different game with Cesc in the starting XI. Fantastic performance!!

[Polo7 3,496]

Always looked good in the number 10 role. Oscar can fuck off.

[Oscar 441]

It weird tbh. Willian slowed the play quite a bit on the counters and made a few bad decisions (NOT AS MUCH AS HAZARD).

Maybe oscar's expectation is significantly higher than willian.

play instead of oscar

[Becks 12]

Amazing game for him. Nobody expected Willian to score the deciding goals but he clearly started taking more responsibility.

[illmatic 901]

Before the goal was already doing an awesome game. The goal, end for consecrate a tremendous performance.

Amazing in defense, and in attack every day look better, and I think that playing like 10, he will be yet better.

He slowed what? You need to watch the game again, or even better compare the way we played with Willian today, and the way we do it with Oscar...

The place of Oscar right now is on the bench. Cuadrado is better than Oscar and Willian on the wing, and Willian is better than Oscar on the number 10 position. It was aways a question of time... like last season.

I did watch the game and the announcers must of said it about 100x....

This is very tiresome. You need to watch the game again I guess.

Even if you believe he was a bit slow on counters, at least he doesn't completely manage to destroy most counters like Oscar does.

First game in that position in a long while and a decent showing .

The whole team seemed to slow down and run out of ideas though when Everton dropped deep but the first half was a yard away from clicking for our front four.

Decent.

Was watching the match round my mum's and said nigh on two minutes before hand 'we never score late goals this season' what a nice smug drive home I'll have listening to talk sport .

They mentioned it in the broadcast about 100x...

And did you see how many counters/chances they had today and it took a deflected goal as the winning goal?

I counted only 2 bad plays from him. He fucked up 1 counter, and one badly placed pass in the final third.

What I always said about Willian is that it seems almost impossible to get the ball off him and today was no exception. From memory, I think he may have made just a single wrong pass.

Oscar may have more goals and assists, but Willian is never played as no. 10 as often as Oscar is; an argument that was easily thrown around during the 'Mata Vs. Oscar' debate. Well, he's played as the no. 10 tonight and got his goal.

He's also shown that not only can he win the ball like Oscar, but he is miles ahead of Oscar at keeping possession of the ball - one of the big reasons why we won tonight. I really hope he keeps his place for PSG.

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

Stepped up big time in the last two games. Beast.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

I'm angry with him. He is capable to do this kind of performance actually, but he just showed it since Cuadrado rumour come to the surface. If only he did this since the beginning, we will easily have 10+ points gap by now.
