β€œThere were good players like Willian, a player who can make a difference, a player that people come to the stadium to watch. A good character too. I made United aware of him straight away when things were going belly-up. 'Have a look at him,’ I told them. At the top level you need to refresh at the right time. Like Van Persie with us last year.

Interesting.

@CHOULO19. I'll always support any Chelsea player. I just don't get this at all. And beyond that, the price is insane. Willian will improve the squad but not much because he's not replacing Moses because Moses was really never going to play anyway, he's really replacing probably De Bruyne, maybe Schurrle in terms of playing time. That means you're paying 32M pounds to upgrade from De Bruyne or Schurrle to Willian. It's a massive fee and doesn't improve the team much. Why do we only spend big on attacking midfielders? We needed a striker and haven't got one and we needed a central midfielder and got young one for the future who might not be ready for the top level. It just makes no sense and is insanely expensive.

Funny how people against a move for Willian have already forgot how stretched our squad was at the end of last season.

We had to resort to playing Bertrand in the midfield to cover for our exhausted players.

Wake up people, having Willian at the club will only help us in our quest to destroy Manchester United's dynasty and start our own as the strongest club in England and Europe.

with all due respect to some(!) members of this community, but you guys should watch a little bit more football... i see people wondering "where he'll be playing since we have Oscar, Schurrle, De Bruyne already", "why we spend this kind of money since we have tons of attacking midfielders", and so on. cmon guys, are you serious?....

first of all - with all due respect to our players, but Willian is way better than Oscar, Schurrle, Moses and KDB. The question should be: "where will KDB and Oscar be playing if Willian signs?".

second of all - open you eyes guys! Chelsea do have real problems on the right wing! There is a dead end there, we are unable to create something on the right wing, there isn't a top class right winger in our team. When Hazard's game isn't working, we're dead on the wings. Villa game proved this. Moses is a natural RW, but he's only a decent player, Oscar is shit on the RW, KDB played there but he is more of a playmaker. Willian will just fill that gap.

And I repeat myself - there are guys here talking about where he'll be playing... he'll be a starter for sure because he is way better than Oscar and KDB. I know you love this two guys and I like them, too, but Willian is from another league. Believe me when I tell you. This guy's a wizard, I've been watching him since his first days in Europe.

Hazard-Mata-Willian will tear apart every defence in EPL. So much pace, so much creativity, two wizards on the wings. We can't wait for Hazard to be the only winger in every match, we need someone else, too, to step up when Eden will be having a bad game. Stop favouring Oscar and KDB and be realistic - we need Willian, we need a guy like him on the right wing.

I do hate to sound negative over all of this, but after reading a fair bit of the guardian article above, I have this feeling in my stomach that Tottenham might report us for tapping him up...

...probably won't happen at all, but it's just a mere feeling.

Now let's stop crying about adding him when it wasn't needed and start salivating at the possibility that we now have the best LW, CAM and RW in the EPL. RIDICULOUS!!!

Hazard and Willian - ugh, so much pace, dribbling and creativity!

Moyes will hit an iceberg soon with his cruiseship lol

The repetitive we have enough AM totally miss the point that we Don't have enough RM/RW.

But if you want to give yourselves strokes in your teenage years just because you don't understand something it's your choice and could be talk chelsea' s gain.

I agree with pretty much all of it.

I will say tho I Don't think Willian is a better player than Oscar .he's just a better option for RM/RW. Oscar I think will evolve to play from a deeper position in Midfield.

Say if we dont sign Willian, and then Hazard or gets injured. Who do we have in our current squad who can dribble with the ball the same way Hazard can? Schurrle isnt that kind of player, KDB the same and Moses (regardless of his pre-season) is shit. This signing makes perfect sense.

Schurrle is very much that sort of player. Schurrle had 3.2 2 dribbles a game last year. Besides, you can't build squads with backing up every sort of player. Do we need a backup for a fast, defensively sound midfielder in case Ramires is hurt? This is especially when you have holes and lack of backups all over the pitch.

30m is a lot of money to piss off Spurs.Jose,we don't need him.

I don't get this at all. We had too many attacking midfielders before and we spend big to get another? And an insanely overpriced one at that. Chelsea have now spent something like 150m pounds on attacking midfielders in the last three years. Something else is going to happen or this makes no sense at all.

I just don't get it... Stupid transfer... We really don't need him... :blink: Mata, Hazard, De Bruyne, Oscar, Moses and Schurlle were enough quality and enough quantity for 3 attacking midfielders... And also Lampard and Ramires are capable to play this position...

What is it you guys dont understand?

We only have ONE pure RW. Competition is good. Why are you against improving the squad?!

LW: Hazard, Schurrle

RW: Willian, Moses

CAM: Mata, Oscar + KdB (who can also play RW)

One important thing will happen when we buy Willian; we wont have to deploy players to the wing when they are more suited to play behind the striker (ie mata/oscar).

tbh at the beginning I was clearly against it, but now I begin more and more to like it. we really lacked someone on the RW and he will be definetely better than Oscar or KDB on it. but one of KDB/Mata/Oscar has to leave then. I cant see 3 people competiting for 1 spot throughout a world-cup season. And out of these 3, either Mata will be sold or KDB loaned out. osar will stay quite surely. I hope that adding Willian will make it easier for our strikers because we wont get a proper striker anymore I think.

Why do people keep saying he'll be on the right wing? Could've sworn his most effective and natural position was LW? Hence Spuds bringing him in as Bale's replacement.

I think Hazard will be on the right with Willian on the left.

He can play LW, RW and AM. Him and Hazard will be interchanging all game.
