As for Willian, he's a guy of a ton of talent. Capable of playing both wings and he could easily slot into the Siggy/Dempsey role if needed. He's full of class. And, he works his ass off.

Loved seeing him rock the afro for the match.

I guarantee, apart from tons of ability/versatility/pace/etc., that a big part of why AVB appears to love Willian so much is his movement off the ball. He consistently finds pockets of space and puts himself in fantastic areas to either draw defenders away from spaces or simply creates space for himself.

A great example from today's match being when he went on the run and the cross was delivered and Lichsteiner pulled him down as that was really all he could do to prevent an easy goal. Lucky for Lichsteiner, the refs were blinded by Willian's awesome afro and a penalty was not given.

I agree, the awesomeness of an afro should determine whether a penalty is warranted

Watched him play tonight against Juve. Absolutely brilliant. Can see why AVB is desperate for him. Shows real quality on the ball and in his movement

Yep absolutely superb tonight.

Him and Moutinho in January = title contenders imo.

Hell, I'd settle for Willian/Isco and Aubameyang. Maybe if those Cabaye links are true we look at him again as well.

Have to admit, I've never watched the bold players so can't comment. Cabaye I think we would pay the same price as we would for Moutinho, for a not as good player.

If we added Moutinho and Willian, we would have a really special team. That would be something else, we could be the best side in the league imo.
