November 8, 201411 yr You haven't liked Willian from the start he could score a hat trick and you would find a way to slag him off. Haha never going to happen.
November 8, 201411 yr Tbh he was in my opinion awful against Maribor but today it looked like he knew that and stepped it up slightly when he came on, now what we need is for Schurrle to do the same.
November 8, 201411 yr You haven't liked Willian from the start he could score a hat trick and you would find a way to slag him off. Not true at all, I give credit when it's due, and I suspect you already knew that but couldn't resist the hyperbole. I'm just probing to see how what Oscar and Willian offer to the team is different. I don't think there is a difference and if there is then it's not enough of a difference to justify one being able to score and assist and the other not. I could be wrong though, I'll be interested in hearing your thoughts.
November 8, 201411 yr Personally i feel Willian is a better dribbler and runner with the ball. How often do you see willian pick up the ball deep, change direction suddenly and go on a diagonal run to lose his man. This is something he does better than Oscar, and as i said after Hazard he is the main trigger to unbalance the opposition. I don't deny he needs to be more involved at the sharp end but i find that in England especially there is an over emphasis on stats. Frank Lampard of two, three years ago had better stats than iniesta but you'd be hard pressed to convince anyone he was better at that stage. N.B i'm not comparing Oscar or Willian's quality, i'm just saying that their roles are slightly different and that stats sometimes don't equate to performance

I could be wrong though, I'll be interested in hearing your thoughts. Well i like Willian and yeah no doubt he needs to score more but i would expect someone who plays centrally off the striker to score more than someone who plays outwide and has to chase the fullback up and down the pitch. And again like Schurrle Willian would be better playing on the left so he can cut on his stronger right foot and shoot and would most likely get more goals that way. Obviously we have Hazard on the left so chances of playing out there are minimised. Edited November 9, 201411 yr by jack_super_class
November 9, 201411 yr http://www.whoscored.com/Articles/dpldcoenckaimerjbhjhjg/Show/Player-Focus-Were-Chelsea-too-Quick-to-Dismiss-In-Form-De-Bruyne Okay it's not related to him directly but.... have we sold the wrong player? I mean look at de Bruyne he flows creativity and has been most influential player of Wolsburg since he signed for them. And on the other hand here we have Willian who hardly have any creativity at all nor he can score goals. Plus he is 3 years older than KDB and I doubt will going to improve as much ever to justify his price tag which I think we have overpaid by some 10millions or so for a workhorse. Look at his fooking output 5 goals and 5-6 assits in 53 games and that's for an attacking midfielder or an winger who cost us nearly 30m pounds? Is it acceptable? Even I think Brana has better output than him. I bet if KDB got that much chance as Willian he would have been much, I mean much better than Willian last season and might have helped us unlocking defenses.. Willian I think is only effective on counter other than that he's contributes next to nothing in final third in terms of output.... Your worried about last season? it has been & gone we come 3rd & nothing is going to change that.
November 9, 201411 yr Your worried about last season? it has been & gone we come 3rd & nothing is going to change that. KDB was mentally weak, thats why he was sold. When he was having a bad game he couldn't pick him self out of the slump and he offered nothing else. This is why Jose sold him, and I think the same could be said for lukaku. Jose clearly liked KDB in the begging, as he did Luiz but soon he saw that the metal requirements to compete week after week wasn't there. KDB has found his level
November 9, 201411 yr That cross field ball to Dave which led to Costa' goal was pretty special, more of that please Willian.
November 9, 201411 yr That cross field ball to Dave which led to Costa' goal was pretty special, more of that please Willian. He does stuff like that fairly often but if it doesn't get finished no one seems to notice.
November 9, 201411 yr It was marginally outside tbh. Whole of the ball has to cross the line, it didn't
November 9, 201411 yr When he sent that long cross field ball to Cesc, I thought WTF, but the event 10 seconds later meant he saw something I didn't, and he executed well. He did pretty well after he came on.
November 10, 201411 yr That pass with the outside of his foot was a beauty. The main thing that impressed me about him at Anzhi was his passing and playmaking skills. Haven't seen a lot of that here but that may be down to the role he's playing.
November 13, 201411 yr Oh shieet! Some proper brazilian tekkers right there. He has definitely improved since coming to chelsea. Hope he starts pulling out moves like that for us.
November 13, 201411 yr Nice goal, this is better though.. https://vine.co/v/OiPVn2QBOEr Wow. That is Ronaldinhoesque. I wonder what he did after that though!
November 13, 201411 yr If i even attempted that I would pull both hamstrings, probably my groin, twist some blood and fall over in a heap.
November 13, 201411 yr He was amazing yesterday, hope he will pass the internationals without any injuries.
November 13, 201411 yr If i even attempted that I would pull both hamstrings, probably my groin, twist some blood and fall over in a heap. And then poop your pants.
November 18, 201411 yr Anyone wish we would have got him 3-4 years ago instead? His talent was wasted in Russia for that duration of time. He is most certainly improved since coming here and, apart from the price tag, i'm surprised there were quite a few people doubting his ability. However, he isn't worth 30+ million at the moment, but he is coming into his prime and i think he can go up another level. I have also noticed how he is becoming a lot more comfortable at taking on defenders to cross or shoot, whereas a year ago he would almost avoid doing it at all.

November 18, 201411 yr worth another look Just Imagine him and Hazard doing dribbling in both wingers... Wowowo they will terrorise defence
