Willian

I stopped reading from there

Cool, other than the away game at Leicester last season, would you please remind me of the last time he wasn't slow.

Image what the sudden exclusion of W. Borges from our roster would do to its overall technique levels. He is not the Hazard type of player and ppl should stop looking for goals/assists in him but rather what brings to the team. One of the few players i normally feel perfectly safe when having the ball. Can't say that about nearly half the team atm.

This forum is unpleasant. I'm just doing my best to fit in and offend as many people as possible.

I hate everyone equally.

Well, at least I know the players full names from now on. Instead of living ignorant and thinking just 'Willian' is his entire name.

Like I didn't know John Obi Mikel's real name isn't...John Obi Mikel.

Nchekwube is a bit of a tonguetwister for the uninitiated, isn't it?

For me a 10 should score and assist...

But we are initiated, aren't we, Bruce?

Tbh, neither Oscar or Willian are adequete number 10 for a club trying to be Europe's best, imo. But it's not the major concern in light of the current problems we still have, next summer it should be a priority imo. Depending on how Coutinho does this season, it's worth looking at him.

Getting another #10 when our central midfield isnt sorted makes no sense. As long as Cesc-Matic is our pivot and Mourinho plays Ramires in every big game because of that, we need a midfielder who fits to every kind of game.

Coutinho wouldnt change a thing about our balance, Pogba and Koke will.

Yeah that's why I said it's not our major concern. We can get by with Willian/Oscar now, especially if we can get Hazard back up to his usual form. I definitely agree about centre midfield and it is a shame we've left it a bit too late to make any meaningful CM signings.

[Magic Lamps 11,655]

he was incredibly shit today. skied like 5 shots he never believed in, completely useless in attack, shunned every great run by hazard, azpi and pedro and was invisible in defence... god when is oscar fit again.

[Sheva. 5,373]

30m, never forget.

[Despiadado.Maleante 1,046]

Need to get my microscope out to check whether he has a brain or not. Havnt used it since Luiz left.

[Blue Colored Sky 1,807]

They crowded midfield and Willian was shit. He has no place against compact side. How we can play with number 10 who is everything but final third decisive player ? He circulates ball pretty well, has neat technique, but gosh he really needs some time to think over the ball. Can't expect pass, combination play or shoot whatsoever. What a wasteful player against compact opposition. IMO he can only play deeper where Fabregas is to help circulate the ball.

[Jase 43,479]

Like I said, Willian is totally clueless in the final. Gives plenty of energy, pace, stamina etc but offers very little end product. It's got to the point where it's not even funny anymore.

[kellzfresh 7,229]

Like I said to stats, bolassie >> willian and it's not even close. Kolarov will score and assist more goals than Willian this season.

He is a central midfielder

Cuadrado comes, he turns on the magic.

Cuadrado leaves, he becomes average.

Hilarious if people think Cuadrado's arrival had anything to do with his form.

That was the narrative. That the "competition" made him play better lol
