    As an Arsenal fan I got nothing but respect for him. Saw him play at for Chelsea and he was one of the best players on the pitch. It didn't quite work at Arsenal but wasn't due to lack of effort. He even left Arsenal without getting a contract termination fee. Sometimes it's just timing and doesn't surprise me his doing well at Fulham.

    I remember that season when Hazard had a horrible run and it was Willian who stepped up and won us quite a few games. He wasn't Eden Hazard but he still was very much a top player and model professional. For me he will be close to that Chelsea legend status. He gave us a lot of years its only right to have him as a cult hero at the very least for Chelsea. Very admirable professional 👏

  • @Jacksonrodriguez
    @Jacksonrodriguez Před rokem +14

    I have to give it to him. He was such a positive player especially when Chelsea was having a "rough" spell with Mourinho..When he came back to play against us this season, he remained classy and respectful even though he scored. Also...if anyone caught Gallagher's tackle against him...he could of milked that but he didn't and I genuinely believe that he was being a professional and didn't want a negative call to go against his old squad. True legend.

  • @thomasmurray3920
    @thomasmurray3920 Před rokem +37

    I was sad when he left Chelsea, and was kind of rooting for him when we played Fulham. I particularly loved seeing him take free kicks where he would bend it around the wall or over and down into the goal. He had quite a run of scoring from set pieces. Maybe he can become another ageless wonder like Thiago Silva.

    Incredible player and totally underrated despite being brilliant on so many occasions
    Willian s double at Spurs and that goal at City as mentioned, the free kick at Porto those half time celebrations on the concourse just incredible times and memories plus possibly the greatest Chelsea terrace song that’s sadly gone now he’s left “ he hates Tottenham he hates Tottenham “
    That Chelsea team was a far cry from todays as it had so much quality Courtois in goal no matter what people think about him he is a great keeper Gary Cahill John Terry and a young Azpilicueta, the magic of Fabregas and the skills and speed of Pedro and Willian, a real striker in Diego Costa, Matic who was another underrated player, the delights of Eden Hazard it was such a joy to watch
    I am glad Willian is honest enough to admit that he wishes he never left Chelsea, I must admit I was totally gutted when he went to Arsenal I felt exactly the same when his business partner David Luiz did too as they were Chelsea fans favourites both players it didn’t work out there I don’t think that is coincidence to be honest as life is all about how you think and those boys were Chelsea, Willian comes across as being so humble such a lovely personality I am glad that he got a standing ovation at Stamford Bridge, fantastic player
