Chelsea Officially Signed Willian

[bababoom 4,478]

How come he hasn't been capped more times for Brazil? surely if he is worth £30 million he would at least be considered more often..

I know Fernandinho has few caps, but i get the feeling if Oscar or Neymar went to Russia they will still get many caps for Brazil, like Hulk did.

If Willian joins I dont think it affects Mata personally. If Utd reject our bid after Mondays game, we just move to plan B whoever it is. I'd be more inclined to believe that if Willian joins, Moses will go. Oscar will go to CM, and Mikel will go

[Christacinto 137]

Really think that midfield would struggle, don't think Oscar can be moved into the pivot, I think he'll continue to play as a central attacking midfielder

I think Oscar could definitely play in the pivot, seeing his first rate defensive skills... Just look at where he was playing mostly during the Villa game! Not sure if mourinho would agree with me though

[Hutcho 8,443]

Oscar is younger with more caps for brazil, and willian is more expensive... So essentially we are over paying for a player we don't need in a position we are stacked in. So i can't see it happenning as all logic deems this to be an unecessary transfer.

And i would put oscar in the pivot whether we get him or not.

Rambo Oscar

KDB Mata Hazard

With Schurrle and Moses for cover seems the right balance for me. We get added depth from Oscar being obviously able to play more advanced and the likes of Essien Lampard and Mvg who can play centrally.

Where the fuck and who the fuck started the rumour "Mata to United"?

It's the most stuipid thing Ive heared here in a while. We arent dumb enough to strenghten United squad like that. No way in hell is that a good deal. Imagine RvP with someone like Mata behind him. If Mata goes anywhere in the future, it wont be to another PL club for sure.

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Getting rid of Mata, would be as big a mistake as signing Torres.

Trust me, its gonna be an even bigger mistake

I can see this one happening this way:

Rooney's bid will be rejected. The money will be used to buy Willian (30m) + Eto'o (5m).

Apparently Man U is set to reject any bid from Chelsea, so we are looking at Plan B, and possibly C

talkSPORT understands Tottenham are still favourites to land Anzhi Makhachkala striker Willian, despite Chelsea’s attempts to hijack the deal.

But that is different, Oscar or Hulk or Neymar already had a brilliant period in visible teams. The first two had stupidly amazing performances in the Brazilian League and the latter had a superb season with Porto...

However, Willian left Corinthians very young, after only 6 months as a professional and went directly to Ukraine (where nobody here has acess to it, unless they are playing an UEFA tournament). With him and Fernandinho playing in the EPL, prepare yourself to see more of them playing for Brazil!

The biggest problem Brazil have is exactly our biggest strengh, the incredible amount of good players at our disposal. We have way too many talented players to fit in, enough to make two teams and be better than most of the world. Because of that, when a manager gets used to or trust a determined group, it is hard for someone else to make the cut; even if he badly deserves it.

That is what currently happens with Coutinho, Fernandinho, etc. Which isnt something new and has actually also happened many other times: Ademir da Guia in the 60s, Dirceu Lopes in 1970, Juninho in 1998, Alex in 2002, Neymar in 2010, etc...

This signing most likely means mata is leaving,there is no other logical explanation for it.

If you think about it abit more, the fellaini rumours has faded away abit this week also, another fact to consider

Hopefully im dead wrong but i got this nasty feeling

[bushman 2,043]

Ok boys. What´s the scoop on him ?

Any report, lately ?
