Willian

[Tomo 21,733]

Timings key to the announcement if he is signing on for another year.

Take the Terry departure announcements for example, when it was initially done in 15/16 fans lost their shit and eventually the club caved and gave him a new deal. A year later we were storming to the title without him playing so when the announcement was made fans were sad but there was absolutely no scope to be outraged over the decision at that point.

Brilliant so far. And this is what he brings. 2 times tracked back perfectly to stop a soton dangerous attack, got an assist. Let's continue this performance

[BXL70 396]

I understand Lampard.

We need a fine balance between young and experienced players.

Willian is one experienced player - from which the young players can learn - and he was also a top performer recently.

Superb today. People take him for granted. 

[nyikolajevics 2,577]

Anyone can hate on him but today was outstanding..

[Stats 7,056]

Hope people always talking shit on his name finally give him the credit he deserves. The amount of times he tracked back and regained possession. He should of had 2 assists to his name, if CHO scored that one on one. Some of the bashing he was getting in past few weeks have been nothing short of embarrassing. 

[Special Juan 27,429]

I hate him at times and today he carried us up the field by 20-30 yards, covered and tracked immensely well.

Well done, more please.

He certainly showed the effort today that earned him praise during his early days at the club, but there was also some end product to boot.

Today, he was MOTM.

It also helps we have Tammy and Mount well on the way to atleast 30 for the season between them, meaning just like in the days of Diego Costa and Hazard it's back to the days that whatever numbers Willy produce is a bonus as opposed to nessesity.

Yep. Spreading out the goal contributions is must for fighting on all fronts.

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. [emoji57]

^^^ in fairness rightfully so he played really well today on both sides of the ball

[Nicco 927]

Give him a contract extension and after sell him in the summer.

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 5,302]

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.

Let's see how long he can keep this up...

I hope Pulisic explodes and I think we will replace Pedro with another good winger so I have no issues Willian being fourth choice next season.
