LAM09 7,056 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Lampard is in love with Willian, by the way. Spoke glowingly of him pre-match and now post-match. Getting even more love than he did under Mourinho!He has to keep him onside, if he doesn't want to be cropped out.

I think there is no chance we sell him if we give him the extension. Firstly he will be very expensive and also I think the board would extent his contract with intention to count on him.

MoroccanBlue 5,382 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Giving him a contract extension would be wrong. So very wrong.  Praise him when he deserves it, but don't let a couple of good performances play tricks on you. We see it every season from him. 2 months of good form. 7 of poor form. We can and must do better than him. manpe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a player with little end product and an over the hill one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I hope he does, we need consistent performers. NikkiCFC, OneMoSalah, Vesper and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Share Posted October 20, 2019 These threads are really quiet when players are in form, aren't they... he's proving a lot of people (myself included...) wrong with his performances. He isn't anywhere close to being as sensational as some Chelsea fan are making him out to be, but he is, nonetheless, playing some great football and seems to be enjoying the level of leadership entrusted in him by Lampard. the wes, !Hazard!, nyikolajevics and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't anywhere close to being as sensational as some Chelsea fan are making him out to be, but he is, nonetheless, playing some great football and seems to be enjoying the level of leadership entrusted in him by Lampard. I think it's more a case of his qualities being more complementary to the players around him. Last two years we only had one reliable scorer which was Hazard and even he wasn't troubling Auba, Aguero, Salah, Kane as far as the golden boot was concerned which meant Willians lack of end product was highlighted more as we could have really done with better numbers from him. This year it's a completely different ball game. Tammy, Mount and Odoi are getting the goals and assists he lacks while he brings the game management qualities that those boys are lacking right now, so in turn that means we can focus on appreciating Willians strengths as opposed to bemoaning his end product. Its a really mutually beneficial relationship between him and the academy lads. With the numbers the three above are producing it doesn't matter too much if Willian doesn't score again this season, in that sense it's back to the days of Costa/Hazard/Oscar/better version Pedro where anything he offers in terms of goals are a bonus because we have enough of them elsewhere, thankfully. kellzfresh and Vesper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And my post after the game. Also, I am not someone who has been at KOVA's throat every time he takes the field. The only time I was at his throat was when he was not a Chelsea player. So stop bringing that one thing up and quoting it out of context. And pulisic was better than willian? 6 players were better than willian? LOLOLOLOL. Sure. The only players who were better than willian on saturday were Jorginho, CHO and probably Kova. Edited October 22, 2019 by 1905didierblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspected that his absence in the last two breaks meant he had a slight sharpness-advantage over his younger competitors. Let's hope he gets a confidence boost that makes up for that.
