Chelsea Officially Signed Willian

[chrismada9 1,948]

I hope he goes back to that braided hairstyle... it looks so badass and would make us more intimidating as a team and have more swagger

Actually he looks a lot more badass with the fro!

[Azpinator 2,325]

People are so dumb, its unbelievable!

Cant you all see we are building a dinasty with Luiz, Ake, Willian and now it is time to hijack Fellaini?

And Witsel, and Dante!! Get 'em all!

[Stingray 9,441]

Well .... Willian a blue!

I am actually very, very happy with this and I only see it s an upgrade of the team, not threat. The only thing I fear for is that the board took this opportunity and will take the foot of the gas for some of the signings we really could use, especially in the pivot (Witsel as said above - Hurraaaaaaa ! )

I can see Oscar dropping to pivot and KDB getting a more central role in turns with Mata (if he stays .... ugh) and Oscar. We have so much quality now that it is becoming scary. This is a good thing - Hazard and Willian on the wings will be something to watch out for. Add Oscar and KDB for build up and crosses and enter a young, enormous, built like a tank finisher such as Lukaku ... wow.

So .... HAPPY

ps: just don't sell or loan KDB or Mata - that would be a huge boner killer.

Will he be ready for the Bayern match?

One thing I'm looking forward to is finding out what the actual transfer fee is. I doubt it's the 30m being reported.

The transfer is starting to make sense to me the more I think about it. I think Mourinho, having spent more time with the players and played some games, has had a rethink and the line-ups/rotations he planned have had to be altered or even scrapped.

Something has changed and I personally think it's to do with Mata's performance against Villa. He was obviously not fully fit but perhaps Mourinho saw something he doesn't like? Might sound extreme and it's just guesswork but I doubt Mata will feature at RW, he'll be competing for CAM with Oscar.

De Bruyne/Willian - Oscar/Mata - Hazard/Schurrle

Moses unfortunate to miss out after a strong pre-season. Or maybe he stays part of the AM rotation and Schurrle moves further forward. Will be very interesting to see how this works out.

Listen to this: the club announced the deal before the work permit, because they know Willian wont get it right now. So they will loan him to Inter de Milao for one season. Next season the club sell Mata and bring Willian back.

Your thoughts are pretty scary to me

AVB on signing Steaua Bucharest defender Vlad Chiriches for Spurs: "Maybe someone will steal him as well"

HAHAHA

Come January, you scout bitch AVB

[Henrique 9,133]

I'm gonna be honest - I've avoided this thread since our interest ramped up again and that's not because I'm against this signing. Personally I don't think it's massively necessary but I trust the club and I'll always support any player who wears the blue with pride.

But there was a really nasty undercurrent that cropped up in the Schurrle transfer. People who didn't like him or were worried about him cutting into the playing time of other players were not just writing him off, but seemingly willing him to fail before he even kicked a ball. That isn't something I've ever seen before in this club's support, or many others either.

So whilst I'm not the biggest fan of this transfer, I'm willing to suspend my own reservations and get behind someone who is undoubtably a fantastic talent. Welcome to the club Willian, and I hope you contribute to our golden future.

Really?

HAHAHA

Awesome up upgrade over Willian...maybe the asshole can play him as a cam

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Willian from last season compared to our players from last season

Gotta to show the caliber of Mata to beat off competition from shit leagues like the ones in Russia and Ukraine (no offence) while playing in the most demanding and challenging league in the world

[Henrique 9,133]

What are the odds for him getting a workpermit? Cause he's no member of the Brazilian international team, is he?

Doesn't he need to have played 75% of games for national team to get one?

Few brazilians that got into PL had 75% of games for national team. Luiz did not have 75% of games, same to Oscar. Not sure if thats a problem.

Before the admins close this down, he's gonna wear Marin's number, 21
