fredoooooo:


Mata comes to mind as soon as i read your comment . Willian in shaktar is different from the one in chelsea

True that.

Three years ago, ninja was one of those guys who'd run at defs and leave them for dead.

It's either Jose's tactics militates against Willian's skills or dude simply traded his skillset for a membership card at the Griffin.

Willian?? Dude is annoying from his attacking style/abilities to his rather stupid broom on his head

Willian has never been a winger, his chief role is playmaker. . . .even on the wing, he's never been someone who dribbles, he's always been the type to drift away from one man only before releasing the pass.

Even when he did play on the wing in Shakhtar, he was only effective from the left wing, cutting inside with the outside of his right foot and releasing the pass or shot.

Do you have any evidence of Willian being a running winger who leaves defenders for dead prior to Chelsea?

Oscar praise singers back with their once-a-month praise singing.

The exact same thing he's doing at Chelsea. Where in this video do you see him slaloming past multiple players? It's the same old Willian, drift past one player and pass the ball.

I could show you youtube clip of him at Chelsea that would make you think that. No be youtube?

Willian hasn't changed. I know him from Football Manager years back as a central attacking midfielder. His whole style of play tells you he is not a natural winger. He is more interested in continuity of possession than one-on-one duels. He is one of those central attacking midfielders with s little pace who gets deployed on the wing. Even Oscar can play on the wing like him. . . as he has done for Chelsea and Brazil several times.

Na by FM?

Hazard was a number 10 too in FM11....

Ibime talk the truth,Willian is useless on the wing. This guy ran away from Paul Dummet yesterday...Paul Dummett!!!

I just lovw the guy pace and attacking strenght.

They shud just push willian into the midfield to pair with matic. At least fab can push further forward and create more chances for us. I sincerely feel salah,schurllie and moses should be offloaded asap to free up space for thorgan,paizon and traore in the team.

The ninjas like Marmite. He ain't a winger though. You can't judge him on wingplay. Believe me, if it's solely about getting behind your opposition defender, Salah will be playing every game.

I dont dislike any ninja who doesn't destabilise the team tactically. If you look at all the ninjas I dislike ie Mikel, Mata, Oscar, Ramires, Luiz, Torres etc, they all destabilize the team tactically.

Willian is not a pressing priority for me as he does his job especially in the big games from a possession point of view as well as defensively. My priority is getting a central midfield partner for Matic.

Come summer, I'll be looking for someone like Sterling, maybe Cuadrado. Once the midfield is sorted, there's little need for Willian. In the meantime he's filling in a lot of holes for Fabregas and Oscar defensively.

Who wins?

nateevs:

Your recognition of Willian's work rate highly lauded but it is a massive misplacement of priorities when a £30m attacker's defensive input is the only highlight of his contribution game after game.
His contribution in attack is very close to NIL. I can find you 20 better ways to spend £30m.

Not only are you missing the point, you are also 100% wrong.
You are a smart guy, so I will leave you to figure it out.

You cannot claim I am mising the point and 100% wrong yet stop at mentioning, at the very least, what it is I am wrong about.
This is a dicussion. I have my opinion about him. Perhaps you have an angle I don't see. Share it rather than just say I am wrong and not say why.

make Hazard sign new contract na

He steps up to the podium, takes a number of very deep breaths and then the tears flow, albeit nowhere near as profusely as last year.

Nihilist your man did it again.

Yes o!!!

CR7 the greatest player to ever kick a ball in anger on this planet.

It's just a shame he was born to a nation of mediocre footballers.

So close but so far for Ronaldo...because if he was born a decade earlier, he might possibly have been winning trophies with the likes of Figo, Rui Costa, and Paulo Sosa as his supporting cast.

But Abel Xavier and Vitor Baia would have been keeping defence for him whilst Nuno Gomes woulda been his strike partner!

And for the Puskas award, I entertained no doubt on James Rodriguez winning the much coverted award.

To hell with RVP's salmon-diving header, one would require a hell lot of technique to match Hames' 25-yards volley.

Could someone help out here please? WTF is David Luiz doing in that FIFA best XI?

David Luiz did well in promoting playstation defending, so he has reaped the reward

Fifa make una no forget my boy Hazard next year

It's really bad.

I just saw the award ceremony with some Barca homies and they're finding it pretty difficult to decipher how Iniesta made the list.

Mascherano and Filipe Luis deserve spots on that team. The two players were damn outstanding for country and club respectively last year.

Ibime:

Nuno Gomes is a legend!!

Anyway, a CR7-Nuno Gomes-Figo frontline with Rui Costa playmaking and Paulo Sosa destroying is still infinitely better than the options Portugal have today....and a team with that nucleus has a good chance of winning something
