Chelsea Officially Signed Willian

[The Mak 4,459]

I don't understand why we can't just spend the 32m on a striker or CDM...Lewandowski, De Rossi anyone?

We can... no one said we wouldn't...

False nine???

Only thing that is likely to be false is this rumor.

Best thing about this thread is that link to the Tottenham forum. Comedy gold!

Why do people keep mentioning Lewandowski as a solution?

He's off to Bayern next season and he just got a nice pay-rise to stay motivated at Dortmund this season.

We're not going to buy a player for £30 million on a bench warmer. Simple as.

That is exactly what i don't understand..... Why are we buying a player for a position that we are very rich in ? This is a weird transfer and it doesn't make sense. I think they might think that we need a player who will open up that right wing because Oscar comes in field too much ?

[NishC300 1,865]

People who say its a stupid move (well... everyone almost), what if Jose wants to push Oscar to the pivot? would it still be stupid? imo no.

--Ramires-Oscar----

Willian--Mata--Hazard

---Rooney/Eto'o/X----

What would you say about that?!

I think, if Oscar moves deeper, KDB could not be enough in Jose's eyes and if we could bring in another option, such talented option, why not?

If thats the case off course Moses and Mikel are leaving.

If Oscar is pushed into the pivot then it might not be such a bad move.

but then what will we do about Moses, Schurrle and KDB?

Make Schurrle a CF?

£32million is a cheap price to troll spurs

but doesn't Willian drift inside a lot too?

That's what I saw when we played Shakhtar.

i just spent the past 45 minutes watching videos of the player and really; MIND-BOGGLING signing if it happens, so hope it's true! We would have a Hazard-quality player on the right flank,

with our existing players it would make an attacking midfield to drool over:

ST

Hazard (Schurrle) Mata (KDB) Willian (SCH/KDB)

Oscar (Lampard) Ramires (Essien)

DEFENCE

Just think of the devestating implications if we add Rooney then to our squad. This signing might effectively mean the end of Mikel and Moses though... Definitely sad for Moses!

We're going to win the league-league-league leagleagleague

Probably mean Moses getting forced out, or getting less game time, then it leaves Willian/Hazard and Schrulle for the left wing and Willian/Hazard and KDB for the right.

yea....

but we could invest this money on more serious issues in our squad.
