He is not a regular Brazil international;
He has not played in any of the major European league;

The clearance price is 30M;

I'd rather taking Eriksen from Ajax.

 
Saw his goal stats yesterday and wasn't that impressed. 20 something goals in 205 games I think.

Lot's of fancy footwork but does it lead to much? Also what's a so-called top rated Brazilian doing at a low level Russian club anyway? If Chelsea wanted to up it to 32 million, honestly they can have him. I'd rather look forward to signing Lamela.


Stew.

He snubbed us before going to Anzi also - lets stick with the players who want to wear the shirt

 
Did you see Mourinhnio's smug face when he was asked questions about Willian's medical at Tottenham before Chelsea pinched him.

I hope Willian turns out to be a flop at Chelsea. Special one my A___ se!


Stew.

 I dont think we should be bitter about him snubbing us, when he was joining Spurs everyone was saying he is class, which he is, but now he is going to the Chavs he is average at best.
It's a dog eat dog world and Chelski are obviously scared of us as they know we are only one or two players away from a title challenging team. I'm hoping we have a Plan A as Willian was plan B (he only came available last minute). Lamela looks a class player and one more attacking player and I am optimistic we can put a challenge together.
