Willian

Surly he was brain dead on the other day. I could have fly down to Stoke from India, sneaked in to the pitch pretending as Chelsea player and ask for the ball but still he would be holding the ball thinking what to do with it!

any particular reason he keeps dribbling towards our goal? and then loses the ball

It's really a shame. An extremely talented player(and that's not an exaggeration by any means) let down by his brain in the final third.

This is not as big of a problem against bigger teams since he's much better than Pedro in transition, but against mid-bottom table sides Pedro should be starting.

Personally, I think it's just as much as of a problem in big games, especially when you consider that Conte likes to play on the counter against the big teams. Good counterattacking opportunities are rare against big teams so every single one needs to be executed to perfection, something Willian doesn't do well IMO. His understanding of picking the right pass in transition is really poor so his dribbling is the only weapon left which (when he's not in good form) can be just as shit as his decision-making as we've seen in the past few games.

It's why he needs to play further back. I wish he would have been tried as a CM or even a wingback years ago.

 

The wingback option was just romanticism i think. Conte has never even named him as a possibility in that position and has tried every winger and fullback at the club bar him and Hazard at wingback since his arrival. There is clearly a very, very good reason he's never played at wingback.

If he keeps repeating performances like that, I'm more then happy that we sell him to Manu 

[Fernando 6,465]

Well we keep saying it, not good for starter but great for depth.

I can't watch Willian anymore. I just can't.

Everytime he has to play a pass it seems like his brain is trying to understand quantum physics.

[Jase 43,479]

So bang out of form right now. Giving Torres' legacy a run for his money.

[Miki-Liki 405]

That was shocking even for his standards. What an useless donkey.  What's even more frustrating, even if the club does manage to offload him, his replacement is going to be no better.

I hate that shit. Extremely unbearable to see Willian play.

Him running and dribbling towards his own defenders - that is Willian trademark.

[positivefootball 195]

Of all Brazil we could only find Willian? Sad.

[Mário César 975]

he needs to go

At this rate... It's embarrassing to play him ahead of Musonda... 

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

Don't want to see him any time soon...

[Jase 43,479]

THAT free kick where he hit a one man wall sums him up and his form right now.
