Willian

[thinktank]

This cat is a player. Got amazing balance/poise and is super trixy.

Can't believe if his contract is up no one else has agreed a deal with him

Sky Sports understands #Spurs are lining up a move for Shakhtar Donetsk ace Willian. #THFC

Is this real because they are a couple of people who claim to work for SSN and don't and come out with bollocks from forums(not ITK bashing, honest)

He cannot be out of contract. It makes absolutely no sense on a number of levels.

It's on their clock watch thing. Bit vague though

Apparently Chelsea had a £20million bid rejected last month

Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Willian has admitted he was annoyed that his club did not accept an offer from Chelsea, but he is not giving up hope of a move just yet.

The Blues

have been busy strengthening their squad with some young talent this summer and 23-year-old Brazilian Willian is another player to have been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge.
There has been some confusion about how much Chelsea

would have to pay to prise Willian away from Donetsk, with Shakhtar manager Mircea Lucescu claiming a €33million bid (£26m) had been turned down.
Shakhtar president Rinat Akhmetov has also been quoted as saying that Willian can leave for €30m, and Willian insists that Lucescu must have got his figures wrong.
"I don't know what the coach said, but the correct value was €25million," he told Globo Esporte.
"But regardless of the value, of course I really wanted to play for a club like Chelsea, a club that won the Champions League.
Big league

"I'm really annoyed that the board didn't let me go. It would have been good for me and for the club too.
"I'd play in a big league and would be able to grow as a player. This is not a message to anyone, everyone knows I want to leave."
Willian does not believe Chelsea have necessarily dropped their interest in him despite closing in on other targets such as Oscar.
He explained: "Chelsea had already reached an agreement regarding Oscar when they made that last offer to sign me.
"I'm sure it won't be a problem as we are different kinds of players. He is more like a playmaker and I am more like an attacking midfielder.
"But it's a matter of waiting. A lot can still happen."

Still not telling us much really

Would rather have Aubameyang.

Incidentally this is a pretty useful resource for Willian footage

Not blown away tbh

 

[Khilari]

the first video is kinda underwhelming...! lots of clips of him passing to someone nearby then standing in the same place or blowing his nose.

sign him up!!!

 

[Snarfalicious]

Would rather have Aubameyang.

I tend to agree as well. Especially if that offer by Chelsea is accurate and was indeed turned down. And, I also think Alan Dzagoev would be a better choice. He can provide cover as a forward attacking midfielder as well as RW, and he could be deployed as a 2nd striker on occasions.

The SSN article is indeed vague. If this is the imminent transfer it's said to be then it has to be some kind of clever loophole because we wouldn't just sign a player for £20m out of the blue when Moutinho was clearly such a big target (and was too expensive).

Please no, I'm struggling with Vertehergengermanblah, there's no way I could pronounce an Abuwangeymewnagbamblah...

LOL, it's gonna be a chore for announcers when Coulibaly and Aubameyang pass it back and forth.

Try saying Obama-Yang.

Assou-Ekotto squares to Vertonghen, who plays it ahead to Siggurdson, who squares to Van der Vart, who puts Aubameyang through, he backheels to Adebayor - shot is deflected and Coulibaly finishes it!

Those videos on Youtube are not particularly flattering in my opinion

David Pleat...is that you? Chimbomba was a fine player!
