Blue_Fox_ 2,086 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 This Di Maria to United is so overused and misleading. -We're not United. -I don't believe United was Di Maria's first choice. -Real really wanted to get rid of Di Maria (as far as IÂ remember) -United happened to be the only ones willing to pay that sum at the time. Selling Willian, or any player not named Mikel-Ivanovic is suicide. The squad is already thin with depth and quality.

Nevermind selling Willian of all people and think about replacing him with a player of higher quality. Not going to happen. Which are these players of higher quality who would come? And why would we make our already full hands, fuller with yet another position to fill in? There's a black hole binary system orbiting around our defence and midfield before we can even think about other areas of the pitch. Correct. If we had another equally good player in our team I don't think you can ignore a 60m offer. Alas we don't have that replacement and selling Willian so we can potentially get a replacement as good as Willian is not worth the trouble considering the far bigger holes we have in our current team. You don't just go out and buy 3-4 top players at once (Which we need IMO). I'm definitely not a Willian "fanboy" whatsoever but I still stand by my opinion that you can be a big team and win with Willian in your first-11. He's not a star but he's not a liability either; Willian's ability to keep the ball and to not make any mistakes leading to us conceding makes him a plus-player worth keeping around. Play Willian with Hazard, Fabregas, and a 3rd creative player (whether that's an offensive fullback or another creative midfielder) and you will see his true value to the team.

Selling Willian, or any player not named Mikel-Ivanovic is suicide. The squad is already thin with depth and quality. You are right. In an interview after moving to PSG, he said his first choice was always to stay at Real Madrid but in other words he was forced out the club and he stated PSG was his first choice of a move however because of the financial restrictions imposed on PSG at the time, the move was impossible and ended up moving to United.

Why don't give a chance to Musonda then? Wouldn't be against us signing him, but then again, do we prefer buying yet another RW/RM and neglect CB/FB/CM?

Sir Mikel OBE 4,920 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Just looks like a gut. When you are as small as he is you eat a few big servings and it shows. Â No doubt it will be gone when Copa America heats up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Ahmed 528 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 CopaAmerica-Willian Quote Welcome to #CopaRank, a weeklong look at the top 25 players we expect to see at the Copa America Centenario. Over 50 ESPN FC experts and writers from around the globe voted, and we're rolling out the results right up to opening day, U.S. vs. Colombia, on Friday. Why is Willian in the top 25? Willian was a bright spot in an otherwise disastrous season for Chelsea. The Brazilian attacker was the most consistent player on the attacking end for the Blues, showing off his talents to the tune of five goals and four assists in 35 appearances. Energetic and willing, the Brazilian made a habit of scoring goals from free kicks. With the ball at his feet in open play, Willian's game is built on a remarkable explosiveness paired with strong technical skills. That means he leaves a lot of defenders grasping for air as he blows by on his way to goal. What the experts say about Willian: This year, in a difficult year (for Chelsea), he has been working very hard with his natural ability. When they defend and sacrifice themselves, he has the attitude to do so. That's why he is already, and can be in the future, a key player for this club." - Former Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink. "He is gifted with talent, his feet are like hands! He can do anything with his feet so it is nice to see him play. He does whatever you want him to do. Normally a player has the tendency to stick with his talents but what I know -- not just here but in other work I've done with him -- is he is open to work on other things." - Hiddink Career highlight: Willian made 36 appearances, scoring twice and providing three assists in Chelsea's Premier League title-winning year of 2014-15. The Brazilian was a favorite of former manager Jose Mourinho, who valued not only Willian's attacking abilities, but his workrate, industry, and defensive contribution. The title season was Willian's best by a wide margin after making the move to Chelsea from Russian side Anzhi. Stat of the season: Willian was responsible for four of the 12 total free kick goals in the Champions League this season. What next for Willian after the Copa America Centenario? Even as the engines warm up for the Copa America tournament, Willian's name is being bandied about as a possible target of some big name clubs across Europe. The latest is a rumor that Manchester United could come in for the Brazilian, presumably because new boss Jose Mourinho would very much enjoy a reunion with the winger. espnfc.com  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's too big 625 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 If he could add double the goals and assists to his game, he would be up there with the best of em. He has very good technical ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfcs most wanted 657 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 He has a great defensive side, he can easily partner with Kennedy to give us a good defensive plus attacking left wing (Hazard can play on the right with Azpi). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
