Chelsea Officially Signed Willian

[Fernando 6,585]

We signed Quaresma on loan, didn't we?!

Yeah and I remember Mourinho also did some crazy buy here at Chelsea as well. Yet not many people mention that.

It is why it's silly to judge a manager just by one transfer. You have to judge overall.

Overall Mourinho did good.

Overall (so far), AVB has been doing good.

Why can't we just put a bid in and get it accepted!! Your not helping anybody by pushin the deal to Jan 31. You know what they want and we know what this team needs.

Has anyone actually watched more than just the 2 youtube videos on this guy to give an informed opinion on this guys ability? Im reading alot of hes not worth that remarks but Id be willing to bet a ton none of you watch the Ukrainian league.

They pretty much confirm that Chelsea bid 20m in that interview. 30m euros is a lot.

I'm from Ukraine and I'm watching Ukraine premier League. This guy NOT worth even 20 million euro. They wanna 30 m.

So if it's one bad buy he's not the man???

Mourinho got Quaresma for Inter for 20 something million. Because he did that buy, is he not the right man?

Hence you can't judge just by one transfer, but an overall. As even SAF makes bad transfer here and there.

Quaresma was a really good player, it was a surprise his failure at Inter. William is a bad buy from the beginning.

I've only seen him play once, and that was two seasons ago when Fulham beat Shaktar 2-1 at Craven Cottage. I don't remember him having an especially good game.

There's no way he's worth 20m.

That is exactly the first thing that sprung to my mind when I saw that article. But this is the Jan market so I wouldn't be surprised if we did pay that amount for a player like him.

So you think. If you where a manager and you bought Quaresma then we would be saying that same thing about you being a bad manager.

It's easy to sit and judge, then when you actually doing the job.

From Official Shakhtar Site:

Recent days saw Shakhtar’s midfielder Willian being in the spotlight of the Ukrainian and international mass media linking him with a move to Chelsea. The Terrikon.com correspondent asked FC Shakhtar CEO Sergei Palkin to clarify this situation.

- Is Shakhtar prepared to sell Willian to Chelsea?

- The philosophy of our club is simple: If a big club offers serious money for our player, we will always consider its proposal. Of course, if a player himself wants to leave. In our case, Willian expressed his desire to test himself in the Premier League.

- What can you tell about the alleged transfer fee?

- Willian’s contract involves a minimum release clause of 35 million Euros. But we met Willian halfway and are ready to let him go for 30 million. It should be said that for the aforementioned sum of money it will be difficult for us now to sign a player of Willian’s level. If the minimum release clause indicated in the contract had been 50 million Euros, then we would demand for the player no less than 40 million. It is important to understand that today we are talking about Chelsea’s desire to buy Willian, but not Shakhtar’s desire to sell him. We also need this player.

- What is your response to Chelsea’s 20 million bid for Willian?

- When Willian was 19 years old we paid for him almost the same amount of money. What is the point of such a deal then?
