nyikolajevics 2,700 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Playmaker means someone who makes chances. How man assists does he have this season?Only a few, two or three maybe. That's exactly why I think he should play behind the striker, he would be more efficient there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No question about it!Thank God actually that Willian doesn't play there. I can only imagine the amount of waste opportunities would come from him if he was behind the striker.He's nearly useless in the final third... I hope when Rami recovers form he comes back the same level he was at the beginning of this season. Never thought I'd say that, but that Ramires >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any version of Willian.The key element here though is if Rami actually recovers that form. Because Ramires is the very true definition of Hyde and Jekyll... LAM09 and bethos1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard enough watching Willian make the wrong decision during counter attacks, but watching him at the central of all our attacking play would be a nightmare. Ramires on form offers us something we don't have anywhere else in the squad, and is extremely useful on the counter. However, as you said, you don't know what your gonna get with him. bethos1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmode 113 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I am not the biggest fan of Willian, but he is improving leaps and bounds. Today was a sensational display. His confidence on the final third is growing as well. Chelsea needs a player like Willian, to maintain possession and consistently track back and make those tackles.

Miguelito 459 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I missed the game and I just watched the replay now. How Willian didn't score those chances he had, I will never know. Yea everyone is saying he was unlucky, but should have scored them both, in particular the second one. I don't think it's just bad luck, it was just bad finishing. I had no confidence in him scoring either to be honest. He did have a good overall performance today though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrique 9,133 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Someone showed me this aspect that he needs to improve and I agree.Has to try to dribble the guy with that much space behind, or pass the ball quickly. Make a fast decision instead of delaying and slowing our play drastically, giving the defense time to organize.To be honest its not a aspect of his game. Its was an aspect in this specific match.Today the 2nd goal game after a quick touch to Oscar. 4th goal game after he speeded up the game, and don't say it was a different Willian today. This is how he is.He doesn't score too much goals or give the final assist, that why you will hear complains about his game coming from people with "low football IQ". stroey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Men were arriving in the box unmarked and he had several good options available to him but he hit it out for a corner. That's typical Willian. He had a good game today and was unlucky not to score but you can see evidence of his poor decision making (low football IQ) in pretty much every game. kellzfresh and Barbara 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a normal visible trait about willian. This match he dared to take some dribbling risks and getting into the box and it paid off. The 2nd oscar goal came because he dribbles 2 players and passed to costa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 that why you will hear complains about his game coming from people with "low football IQ". Certainly not lower than Willian's football IQ, though! Only Willian can make me want to put my head through a wall when we're 4-0 up before HT....and I thought he had a very good game! bababoom and Barbara 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rantdeville 195 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Does this guy just wait till Willian decides to show up to say "this is how he is" lol Everyone knows the "told ya so" guy lmao.

Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I am so done with Willian, lol. Wake me up the next time he scores/assists. Oh wait, we shouldn't expect that from Willian, he's in the team for "balance". So i'm guessing because we didn't concede today Willian must have played great.

This balance nonsense is getting on my nerves. Where was the "balance" against Tottenham?!His stats for a RWF must be amongst the worst in the Prem, and to make matters worse; he cost £30m!It's unbelievable.

So i'm guessing because we didn't concede today Willian must have played great.A player played well, and was involved in 2 of the goals while covering for both fullbacks. This gives players like Hazard/Oscar/Cesc alot of freedom to do what they do best. Heck he even played better than Hazard this match (who was invisible in the first half), for our system to work we need good pressers. I see Costa, Willian, Matic do that alot every game they play, Oscar too. But not at the same intensity and speed as Willian does.Mourinho likes him and goes as far to say that he always gives a performance. Next time watch the game before you come here spouting bullshit.
