Willian

[King Kante 1,483]

I am not Willian's biggest fan but if he gets a 1 year extension to play as AM4/5 I am prefectly fine with that. I mean whilst we can expect Puli and Ziyech to be AM1/2 we still need depth, especially as Puli has been injury prone and Ziyech will be new to the league. CHO has a lot of promise but it is still only that atm and moving forward I want Mount in the middle three as that is his best position (although I am ok with him moonlighting in an AM role against sides that we need to be more defensive against.)

Anjorin would be much better off on loan getting in a full season in the Championship/Holland than playing here as a AM4/5.

No way....either sign Havertz or at worst Benhrama...

Willian is done for....we should be looking forward to the future not a player who has been holding the club back for donkey years now...

Have to say, I have given Willian lots of grief over the past few years but fair play he has produced memorable moments in blue. Dare I say, he will be slightly missed when he goes.

Willian is not going to accept a 1 year deal and understandably so. If he was happy with a 1 year deal, he would have signed by now.  This is more than likely to be his last contract wherever he signs so he wants security.

I hope this is his last season ... Not sure what he was upto yest ... was it a niggle or something else but other than the goal he was so out of his element. Giroud pressed more than he did, he was just strolling in the park most of the time.

Willian said there's a chance that he might stay on...

As I think you said yesterday, if Willian stays then I very much doubt we'll be signing another attacking player. And Frank seems to really love him so I can easily see him signing an extension.

We could do a lot worse in my opinion than keep Willian on. He's never going to put up big numbers in terms of goals and assists but he offers other strengths that our other wide players don't.

Unless we sign some world class attacking player, I think it's a sensible move. I definitely wouldn't give him 3 years, but I wouldn't be fussed if he signed for 2 years. We have some promising attacking players coming through and another season or two of Willian in the squad could help bridge that.

He's obviously liked and trusted by Lampard, is the most tactically disciplined wide player we have, hasn't shown any physical drop off yet and is rarely injured.

We have to be careful that all our hopes aren't pinned on Ziyech and Werner to come in and hit the ground running because if they need time to adapt, others need to be there to contribute and give them this opportunity to adjust and adapt.

Last night's game showed how important the experience and contributions of the likes of Willian and Azpi are, and if we can get ourselves into a position to muster a title challenge next season that influence and experience will again be important.

If he stays on that's an even bigger indication Ziyech is playing in CM/CAM.

[NikkiCFC 7,953]

Oh no, no club in universe is giving you what you want? 

If Arsenal or Spurs gave him 3 years contract he would signed for them.

[Jase 43,479]

It usually doesn't mean much but Willian is in the new kit promos...

[Special Juan 27,429]

Yep and Hazard was the big figure outside the megastore last year

[Atomiswave 6,072]

I wouldnt mind him staying for next season, he might not score alot yes but his work ethic is rather useful and FL likes that I gather. But only for next season and not his 3 seasons wish.

As long as he is used as a sub, I also would not mind him staying.
