Willian

[Raketa10]

Who is claiming 70m is good business?

Didn’t you say you would buy him or I misunderstood you? As far as I know his price is set to 70 mil.

No I said 50/60m is a bit much but a good player that would improve squad.

There is no doubt he is a good player but the main problem here are price and age. He is also not consistent at all. If we can somehow exchange him for Paulinho or sell Paulinho and add a bit for him than I am ok with that since for me Willian > Paulinho.

He isnt consistent every week but not as inconsistent as is made out either.

When he is on it he is top notch and allows Barca another option to play on break.

If Dembele is poor/injured etc Barca have no forward really that has that threat.

As I said if we can get him for some adequate price than I am fine with that. But for 70mil no way. But if we want him we need to get rid of Pauliho so maybe that’s a solution.

Admit it .. you've never seen him play , have you ?

I'm English. Watch him every week (highlights a lot of the time admittedly.) Or at least I would if he were good enough to get in the Chelsea team on a weekly basis. Look, I'm not saying he's awful, just not the answer to any of our problems.

Risky to buy old Brazilians as they tend to decline faster than others.

 

[El Barcelona]

Hope this is all nonsense. 70mil is crazy business.

This old generalisation again...

Interesting take on things considering he played 65 times for Chelsea last season .... so I'm not certain who you'vebeen watching

Okay, quick Google search informs me he started 20 games in the league, and was a sub on 16 occasions. I also note that he's never got into even double figures for goals or assists. To reiterate, he's a good player, in particular a good carrier of the ball, but not good enough for us and absolutely not what we need. Throw in price and his age and it's not just a bad signing it's a ridiculous one. Look, I get it, you like the guy I said something against him and now you're trying to make me look ignorant. And hell, maybe I am, I'm no expert certainly, but nothing you can say will convince that this (potential) signing makes sense.

According to MD's front cover, Willian's agent is trying to get Chelsea to lower their 80 million euro demand for him.

Gerard Romero claims that it will be difficult at this point to sign him due to his price.

 

[Luftstalag14]

Hallelujah! Chelsea needs to stick to the 80m price tag.

 

[MTL_Barca]

Hopefully Chalsea can save us from this just like PSG when they wanted too much for Di Maria

We like overpaying for players, so it's likely to be a done deal.
