I thought we had a "I'm pining for my ex" thread specifically for this sort of thing 🙂

Not true at all. The Courtois thread was very active with people calling him a snake when he left, and Luiz still gets mocked whenever he makes mistakes for Arsenal. It's not like this thread is getting updated daily with people taking the piss, it's a handful of posts over two months.

Courtois's case was a bit different, don't you think? And David Luiz's thread went quiet a couple of days after he left us.

Have you people considered therapy? I've heard it can do wonders for this kind of unhealthy infatuation.

That might solve the sleepless nights I still have over my unrequited kindergarten crush

You mean that Carlo's not your only unrequited crush?

There is a long list, he must be 23rd or something

It's more of a reaction to the hype and bull sh*t we got after the Fulham game. AFTV morons saying Willian is better than Ziyech because he grabbed 3 assists on his debut. Arsenal got ridiculous hype for that Fulham game. 

Now he's gone back to square 1 and Ziyech looks quality. Not so much dissing Willian, he was a great player here, had his best years here, but I wish him nothing but bad luck in an Arsenal shirt. (On the pitch of course). 

It's would have been like us back in the early 00's taking Kanu on a free while Arsenal got Samuel Eto'o and acting that it's proof of an impending power shift. 

Willian misheard Arteta, he clearly said Championship not Champions league! Get outta there!

However disappointing our recent 2 results have been, we can take (renewed) heart from the fact that at least we're not Arsenal.

 

Or any other club, I know I know 

Arsenal has fallen in love fully with Willian

I so want to add to the content on this thread but I think it prudent to wait until after our game on the 26th!!

He got his three years, why should he give a f**k any more?

Enjoy this gif to depict Marina during the contract negotiations…

Wow he's never done this at Chelsea yet his first pre season with Arse he turns up like this, worse than Eden tbh

Whos that and why has he eaten Willian?

I'm not sure if I have unleashed my inner Willian lately, or Willian has unleashed his inner Val 

 

I had no idea Arsenal players had to wear bullet-proof vests against their own supporters

I’d reckon Palace players need stab-vests what with being in Croydon…

Terminated his Arsenal contract by mutual consent just 12 months into his 3 year contract. 

Set to take a 70% pay cut and return to Brazil.

Will be interesting to see if by playing back in Brazil he can get back to the national side, I doubt it though some times a surprise happens in a 'new' environment.

My laughter is directed at Arsenal. Well done Willy for fleecing then for 12 months!

Fair play, he could have sat there and earned £20m. Makes me think now that he really believed in their project and after a year it clearly isn't going to happen.

Willian’s decision to up sticks is pretty damning for Arsenal- the situation and morale there is probably more dire than we imagine. 
 

Good for Willian. Sticking up for morals and dignity. Came out of it looking like a man of character. 

He could've easily went down the Bale/Ozil/Bogarde route.
