Stop being silly. You don't use matches against Chelsea to make assumptions over the course of an entire season. Mikhi was the best player in that Shaktar team and I'll prove it now.

He scored the record number of goals in the Ukranian league, surely he was the highest goal scorer in that Shaktar team. He was voted the league's(Ukranian) best player. He was also voted best player by the Shaktar fans.
Where were Willian and co when he was doing all these?

I don't even know why you quoted me when it's obvious you've nothing reasonable to say.

lekkie073:
it would be hard for any single club to buy auba mikki and mahrez in one single transfer season.....

all other clubs r not sleeping na?

chrisley024:
Mane is far more productive than Willian. Willian is though more of a team player with plenty energy to burn.

lekkie073:

I too will definitely go for anything dat would guarantee instant success for now....what I stated is just what permutations dat will arise with regards to getting either Ibrahim or auba.....

on another note, look at what pogba have gone to become.....if only we gave him dat chance. we didn't and a club like juve did. now such player even Jose is ready to break d bank for. imagine pogba sef dey do yanga to manutd

if we gamble on auba and he doesn't deliver and rashford subsequently leaves to another club and become a bang, another pogba mistake has been made...

Lets all try not to laugh at Arsenal fans

u never Sabine anything... wait till he remember under which canopy he watch d match.....he go begin tell u how those under d canopy dey shout Willian name for d match

Not only about having the money, other things like does the player or the club want the move and competition from other clubs come into play.

I think Aub and Mahrez are very unlikely.

Willian was already gone by january!
That's to show how highly rated he was. He was also fantastic against Juve. I didn't even noticed Mikhi on the pitch nor knew if there was any player like that.
Personally, I think he's a player who relies on space to operate as shown by the game against Liverpool team which afforded no space to make his trademark floated passes. The likes of Kaagawa looked good in that match but Mikhi looked average.

Willian scored 20 league goals in 140 matches for Shakhtar
Mkhitaryan scored 38 league goals in just 72 matches...............there is no comparison in terms of effectiveness or creativity or passing ability.
The only place Willian beats him is power and pace......however Willian tends to do nothing with the ball at the end of his runs

Mikhi was voted the fans best player and the league's MVP in 2012. Willian was still a player at Shaktar then. What was Willian doing when Mikhi was doing this?
Willian had to move to a useless club in Russia in January 2013 while Mikhi finished that season top scorer in the league and setting a record number of goals and that earned him his move to Dortmund. How anyone can anyone say Willian was better than Mikhi then?
I didn't ask you for this now. This is what you should've said initially instead of jumping on my post and trying to appear smart by correcting an error which never existed.

Lol... buahahahah

Players Arsene Wenger almost sign.

Messi.

etc


Time for trolling

Diademk07:

Creativity wise, Willian was better. I don't know what happened to him under Mourinho but he was more creative than Mikhi while he was at Shaktar and he looked creative for u20 brazilian team.
At Dortmund, Mikhi is their focal player who takes most of the free kicks and corner. Moreso, I doubt his trademark floated passes will work in EPL.

afrodoc2:


What was Willian creating ? Maybe pancake cos it sure want goals
The most creative and effective players in Shakhtar were initially Luiz Adriano and Alex Texeira and later Mkhitaryan and Costa. Willian was always forming activity and missed his true calling as box to box midfielder. I ever preferred Jadson to him cos at least that one could dribble and pass.

Diademk07:

I don't care for all this.
The main thing is on the world stage, he looked average apart from scoring against Norjjalland team in the CL.
He looked poor against Dortmund, Chelsea, Juve and recently, vs Liverpool.
That's not forgetting, he was rubbish before this season.

GBR1:
@Dadehmola I think you're really underrating Mane. He's more than what you're describing.

The problem is we aren't even being linked with him. I'll hate to see him go to Liverpool.

GBR1:

I never debated the nonsense you just stated above.

I said he was the best player in that Shaktar team then and you said it wasn't true. Then I proved it and now you are saying something else and talking about his time at Dortmund. Who asked you for the above? Why did you quote my initial post to say nonsense?

Just shut up, accept your goof and move on abeg.

Diademk07:

Did you know Mikhi only had 2 assists in his last season at Shaktar? He was known more for his goals.

AdeLaNa1:
Lol. Bro no be small thing.
Below is 'Wenger's almost signed 11'

And we can even still add players like Vardy, Mikitarian(forgive the spelling), Martial, Varane etc to the bench

afrodoc2:


In the last 4 years Mlkitaryan has scored more league goals (48) than Willian has scored in hos whole 10yr career (34)
Also Mkhitaryan has registered more assists in the last 3 years than Willian has in his whole 10 year career.

I ask again was Willian creating pancakes while Mkhi was creating goals?

Diademk07:

Like I stated earlier, I don't know what happened to Willian at Chelsea but he was head and shoulder above his teammate in the CL. Same for his u20 team.
Personally, until Mikhi proved otherwise that his last season creativity at Dortmund isn't a one season wonder, I won't rate him as a creative player.

Diademk07:

Did you know Mikhi only had 9 assists but with 25 goals in his last season at Shaktar? He was known more for his goals.

afrodoc2:


He had 9 goals and 10 assists in his first season at Dortmund, it was the 2nd season that was really bad. Last season he had 11 goals and 15 seasons in the league. I have no doubts that he is more creative than Willian who runs into dead ends once he gets to the 18 yard box

ONLY 9 assists? Willian would sacrifice to Ogun if he could have 9 assists in a league season
