Bluewolf Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 So it ends.... Willian for me has been one of those players that could perform very well under certain circumstances but for the most part I always felt he was a bit like Obi Mikel, someone who had great promise but never went on to fulfil it...

carefreeluke Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 One of his biggest problems (and one that not many people realise) is that he often stops and slows down the play. He'll often stop the ball and wait for the opposition player to dive in which makes him a bit predictable but it also hinders the speed in which the team moves the ball. It's not often you see him release the ball quickly and his first thought is often whether he can beat his man. Over the years he has also been incredibly wasteful on the ball and he loses possession too easily, in this regard he's been a bit better this season but overall that's been one of his worst traits during his time here. I haven't read that Marca article but I hope there's some truth in it. Willian is one of a few players that we need to shift in a squad clear-up operation. Maybe, it's all smoke and mirrors from his agent to help get a new deal at the club as I was pretty sure he wanted to stay in London. Either way, if there's truth in it, I do wonder what the hell Barcelona are thinking. I don't know how he's got this reputation as being a fantastic player, every game I watch there are commentators saying how good he is and opposition fans pre-match fearing him. The bloke really isn't all that. I will remember some of his positive moments but yeah it's really time to move on but I think he'll get a one-year extension.

Both are young too and still maturing but I'm 99% positive they will go on to be key for Barcelona for many years. Semedo Is also quality, but wasn't being used right, especially when being thrown at left back. Vidal is a great squad player. But other than that, the club have spent so much on crap over the years. Probably 500 million or so. Should stick a bid in for C Ronaldo now he's not at Madrid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
