As great as Willian as a player is, he is a potential trouble maker in bad times. His character is doubtful.

But who cares, let's get him.
From what I've read he has an exemplary character and a fantastic work ethic, "a dream to work with" is a quote that stuck with me, not something you hear about footballers often!

Does this whole Chelski hijack smell of Abramovich getting his revenge on Levy for never selling him Modric?


I think it's probably got a lot more to do with the fact that they watched Willian go off against them in the Champions League, they know he's a good player and they have money to burn. I don't think it's as personal as people are making it out to be. I think in a way they might be a little bit worried about us having Willian, so in turn they just decided that since he's a good player they would go for him.

Willian and AVB are friendly. AVB obviously likes his character, not just his ability.

Case frigging closed IMO.

Easy get out for a player, but they appoint the agent and they have the ability to fire them if they think what they are doing is wrong.


True, but footballers are so easily influenced these days. In Willian's mind Kia will be a great guy who is only looking out for what's best for Willian - because that is precisely what Kia wants Willian to think.

I do take your point, but as we've seen with Modric, Bale etc. who both were known as happy, down to earth guys, the agent can easily twist their minds.

Case is rarely ever closed when it comes to agents unfortunately.

I do think that there needs to be regulation on this type of activity, ie agents getting fees etc. these should come out of the players pockets.

No talking about agents. Somebody is questioning Willian's character. I'm just refuting that.

I think he meant that towards the people saying he has a bad character and known to strike etc.

Edit- beaten to it

Some of you sound like Liverpool fans.

I got battered on here for questioning Willian before we'd put the bid in, now that we might actually lose him all of you ****s that gave me WTF?!!s, Dislikes and Disagrees are all piping up now.
You knew it would happen, north or south of the country we are footy fans. Fickle and contrary.

There's quite a lot of paranoia here. I don't think Chelsea would want to sign him out of 'spite' or to stop us developing. I think that they actually want him, and it's just taken Mourinho a couple of games of seeing his new squad to realise that.

I they get rid of Moses and Mata then there's no real reason they wouldn't want a player in that position, and unfortunately they have the money to not have to think about it too much.

It's a shame if they take him away from us, but if that's the case then I think Willian will have made a silly decision based on money rather than football and that's his choice. We then need to just move on to our next target.
CL perhaps?

well if this fucker kj isn't even his agent, why the fuck is he poking his big hooked nose into the whole transfer?

Probably bought the rights to Willian's left or right leg when he was 12 for a 2nd had pair of Copa Mundials, oh and he's a massive ****...!
