Willian

[Term-X 7,891]

His general decision making is shocking, dwelling on the ball too, never feel confident in him making the right pass.

I've been saying this since last season and it hasn't changed. He lacks imagination and as attacking player at this level, that's unacceptable.

Really need either Oscar or Schurrle to step up.

And then one realized, we actually paid £30m for Willian...

makes you think , did we get Hazard cheap or did we overpay badly for Willian?

[Special Juan 28,133]

I said months ago that him and Oscar have big seasons ahead of them, they have and they both need to start raising their game quick sharp.

In hindsight, Hazard was incredibly cheap. A bargain.

[Tomo 21,751]

His use of the ball is average at best horrible at worst, however we need the balance he offers in big games, especially if Cesc plays.

Like iseah100 said, Hazard turned out a bargain. Chelsea got robbed on the Willian deal but that's not Willian's fault.

So Willian has a one off bad game and he is suddenly shit? He was good in most of his games he played.Oscar for example had a poor season and yet gets more chances than Willian.I like them both but you should play the on form player and that is not Oscar at the moment.

Put Hazard in the cam role and lets see how well he does under Jose tactics...

[DH1988 1,348]

Our entire front line yesterday took like an extra touch, even Costa and I don't see anyone pulling him up on that..

We had a sub par game, City had a kick up the arse since Bayern, got a point

Chelsea drew 2 games and won 1 game under willian...

Dont think he was "good" in any of those games in particular.

He didn't join us this season.

Dont know but he realy looks fucking limited in attack. I admire his work rate, but all people saying he had to play defensive etc...Every player has to track back for big teams. From Ribery to Turan etc..thing is what can you do when you have the ball in attack and Willian is average at best. He has oddly good game every once in a while, but today he was quite terrible.

3 times in first half, he got the ball, was alone in middle of pitch and he could go on counter. A simple pass to player forward would do it. But he either passed right into Toure/Fernandinho or he was sprinting and pushed ball too forward and couldnt catch it. Simple things and he fucked up those things. I can accept him as back up player, but for someone who is a starter against City, I expect to do better, then you remember he cost us 30m. I would understand, it happens once, but he did SAME mistake 3 times. He killed three counters and this is just bad. And worse he didnt realy improve much ever since comming here. I mean, he still doesnt realy click with any of our attackers.

For a 30 m player he is just so bad on the ball. I was suprised

[DavidEU 2,023]

Of late he's looking far better as a substitute coming on and running against tired opponents. Looks sluggish when starting games at the moment.

He was hardly brilliant last season either. His defensive workrate is probably the only reason he starts over Andre, and his speed is probably the reason he starts over Oscar. He offers very little other than that, despite being technically gifted. His decision-making and passing in the final third are poor, he doesn't make runs, and he's no goal threat.
