Reports surfacing today that we've made a 75 Million bid for Willian.

It's a difficult one really. we're desperate for a right sided player but we're most likely paying way over the odds for it no matter who we bring in.

£75m for an inconsistent winger Chelsea fans wouldn't mind seeing the back off? Bloody hell this club!

I think he is a fantastic player, I don't really think he is inconsistent at all. When Jose was there he was brilliant. The shape that Conte played meant he got less game time. As long as there is still money available the cost is of limited concern to me.

Plus blind Damian and rojo will bring in 40 mil which pays for half of the fee and frees up a ton of money in wages.

There is contrary reports, ones suggesting Chelsea would accept offer of €75m from utd, others suggesting Chelsea are willing to drop the price after Barcelona opted against the deal.

There is no suggestion we have made the bid.

Ed 002 always says talking about money complicates things so ill stick with that. If we want him and he turns out well then great for the side. Which i think he will.

If we keep buying older players we will need a complete rebuild of the midfield in 2 years. Willian 29 herra 29 Sanchez 30 fellani 30 matic 30.

{Ed002's Note - Maybe Neville has some younger players in mind that he could use?}

Hi all,
Thanks to the Eds as always.
I can not believe I have just read ‘inconsistent winger’! You must be joking? Willian has been Chelsea’s best player for the pas 2/ 3 years! When I think of a JM player, he is the first one that springs to mind. Driven both in terms of his defensive duties and intelligent attacking ability. Given today’s market I would pay that for him. Hazard is the inconsistent player currently on Chelsea’s books IMO.

Twenty. or perhaps he's buying experience to win while he's here, when the overhaul starts, pereira fosu mensa gomes and chong will be ready to take over? He's unlikely to stay longer than this year I think.

Ed002, are you hinting the idea of Gary Neville taking over one day?

I wouldn't mind that personally.

Don't make me laugh boys. As a Chelsea fan I can tell you players don't get more inconsistent than Willian. KingGiggsy he's been no where near our best player for the last three years, he has a good first half of the season in 15/ 16 and other than that he's been either poor or had patches of brilliance. He was a substitute most of the title winning season with Conte preferring Pedro and last season Chelsea fans were disappointed with seeing him in the starting 11 up until February when he decided to turn up. If we get £75m from you lot we've well and truly mugged you off I'm afraid.

We’ve got form for it tho. I mean we paid £40m for a slow laboured Matic, while they paid about £30m for Kante, one of the best in the world. Work that out.

Agree5 Disagree2

Knowing us ed002 it will be Phil!

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jul 2018 19:29:28
Sorry Stand, they paid 45m for Bakoyoko. Kante was the season prior to that. Keep up mate. You are just trying to knock us down.

Agree3 Disagree3

27 Jul 2018 20:31:38
We actually regret selling Matid. Well I wouldn't have minded actually had we replaced him suitably but Bakayoko was truly awful for us last year although I think many still have faith he can improve! As I said though Willian wouldn't really be missed at Chelsea and you can do better.

Agree1 Disagree0

27 Jul 2018 21:25:13
Matic is class. His replacement Bakayoko has been dreadful.

Signing Willian would be nonsensical given we have Sanchez and Rashford who can play there just as inconsistently.

Agree2 Disagree0

Signing Willian would be great at the right price maybe 35-40 million . I have to diagram with the negative comments about him, for me he us one of the most exciting players in the league and he can make something out of nothing. But i dpnt get why one of martial, rashford or lingard can't play on the right. Rashford and martial as the wingers would scare the he'll out if the best fullbacks and midfielders.
