Reus can play on the right...

Every time I say that people see me as spoilt but the fact is to be on the same level squad wise with bayern/barca/Madrid we need a hazard level right winger in dribbling, decision making, technique and speed (reus) and we need a fast and powerful CB(I don't know how fast zouma is, I hope he plays tomorrow) .

Every time I see hazard marked by 3 players, I imagine what if we had another on the right (Ribery-robben :worship: ) No one will dare leave space on the other flank because that side isn't scary enough. Our game would be on another level with two dangerous dribbling wingers on both flanks and fast, powerful CB's to mop up counters.

Reus and Varane would make us the best team in the world. I completely agree though, teams just aren't as worried about Willian and Schurrle as they would be with Reus.

Cue the "This isn't fucking FIFA or FM" posts.

Wow, absolutely crazy how quick some of the board is to criticize him, and call him an average player... Get off it.

What exactly did people want him to do in the City match? Pick out perfect passes with only one option presenting itself, and players from City already hedging on the play to cut that option off? How about hold off 3 men converging on him every time he touched the ball because he was one of the few getting forward? Break the defensive line and take it himself?

Absolutely ridiculous. People acting as if Hazard or Costa were having better games on the day. At least Willian was getting up the field, releasing pressure and trying to make something happen. I kept getting told Hazard didn't make stupid decisions and didn't lose the ball. It's not hard when you're passing the ball back every time, and in the end, the team just ended up losing it further up the ground.

People on here give Ramires and Willian way too much shit, despite being some of our most important, and best players. Not to rave on about something that has already been joked about just a couple posts up, but some clearly do think it is FIFA and FM on here. The pace, defensive awareness and ability to dribble past players, which Willian and Ramires provide win us games.

True. He can also be too selfish. But at least he offers something different and actually presents a goal threat.

I agree with this. Currently its really a trade off between the 2 for me. Willian is crucial for games where we need more control over the midfield and the right flank. Schurrle is decent enough at tracking back but he gives far more end product. I really wish we could combine the 2 players together tbh. I feel that Willian has the technique but he doesn't have the best ideas for attacking, whereby Andre is the opposite. He has better ideas for what to do but he isn't as good as Willian in breezing past his marker or just maintaining possession of the ball

Somehow Willian seems much better player then he is showing us here. He doesn't looked settled or happiest in the world here. His games for us are... Not bad but like he came just to get the job done... Am I the only one who feels this way?

Yeah definitely. I think that is the main gripe against him. He has excellent dribbling, pace, work rate and shooting for me. But he doesn't seem to make full use of them often enough offensively. I'm not too sure about the happy part because that is hard to gauge but it seems like he is taking his stint at Chelsea as just another payday and not a chance to launch himself much further in his status as a player.

He is very useful when we park the bus - like last Sunday - but Schürrle and Salah are much more dangerous.

Saw the same old Willian in the first half. But he really stepped it up in the 2nd half. Didn't slow down play nearly as much as he usually does. Really wished that attempt by Costa would've gone in though. Willian eventually putting it in should do a lot of good for his confidence though.
