Will.I.An

Off the top of my head, Ronaldinho moved to Barca from PSG when he was 24 and went from 'extremely talented' to the world's best player. Rivaldo moved at 24 from Palmeiras to Deportivo, and then at 25 to Barca. Also went from talented youngster to one of the best players in the world.

I'm not sure what trend you're spotting? Am not exactly advocating signing Willian, but everyone doesn't need to go the Diego or Robinho way.

No but he seems to have more in common with the latter bunch, than Ronaldinho and Rivaldo.

Ronaldinho was 23 when he moved btw

If we have that front 4 we will win the League.

Aware of his potential, Anzhi coach Guus Hiddink has pushed Willian up into a more advanced position, deploying him as a withdrawn striker, a switch that the player has been happy to make: “He’s shown complete faith in me. In that first game I played in a different way to what I’d been doing at Shakhtar, though it was a lot more similar to my role when I broke through at Corinthians.”

Liverpool open transfer talks with Anzhi for £100k per week Brazilian winger Willian

14 Aug 2013 14:49
The Samba star was a £32million buy from Shakhtar just eight months ago - it's likely Anzhi will want to recoup most of that

Liverpool have opened transfer talks with Anzhi over Brazilian winger Willian.
Liverpool are targeting Willian after Anzhi indicated they are willing to offload the Samba star just eight months after buying him from Shakhtar Donetsk for £32million as they slash costs.
Brendan Rodgers wants a marquee signing and has set his sights on Willian, who is also wanted by Tottenham, after failing to land Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Diego Costa.
The Reds are yet to talk figures and Anzhi would want to recoup most of the fee they paid for the 25-year-old Willian.
Liverpool would also have to pick up the former Corinthians star's £100,000-a-week wages.
This does not deter them and owners Fenway Sports Group have promised Rodgers they will bankroll a major signing to excite the fans and boost their Champions League hopes.
Liverpool's interest is not dependent on Luis Suarez's future and the club do not need to sell the Uruguayan to land Willian.

I want him just cos Spurs want him. I'm sick of those cunts beating us to players. I think their scouts just follow ours. Or ours follow theirs. Or we have the same scouts. Or something.

 

[shabuti]

Was always good when I signed him on football manager 12+13 an I think we all no FM doesn't lie......not worth the reported 35 mil though

Quite. I had the same affair on Fifa. Bought him and Muriel and I dont mind telling you that a front three of these two and Sturridge ripped the piss. But then I did sell Suarez to fund that shit.

[Comical Aly]

I think I'd choose the tramp.

 

[Oncy]

Homophobe!!

 

[Frogfish]

anyone who thinks we shouldn't sign him is an absolute fucking headwand.

If Skully says we should be in for him then I'm on-board ! Skully doesn't like anyone so this guy must be aces !

 

[Comical Aly]

He's gay?

 

[Oncy]

He's gay?

Will.I.AM DUH as In I.AM.GAY!

Get with it hate monger.

 

[Comical Aly]

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

 

[red_maradona]

Oh yay I found one where he isn't shit.


In fact he's pretty awesome here

lovely video - great stuff. he's got the talent, he's at the right age (not to young to still be adapting but not too old to not have the chance to improve) and he couls set the epl on fire!

 

[dmishra]

There's an assist at 2:18 that is pure unadulterated sex.

 

[Rafiagra]

Sign already damnit!

He reminds me of Raheem. Five years later.

And solely for that reason, I feel slightly meh about Willian.

 

[Insignificance]

He'll be very expensive... If he makes 100k a week today I guess he keeps it all with no tax.

 

[singlerider]

Well, he certainly looks like he'd help us meet our stepover quota for the season

 

[juniormember]

He'll be very expensive... If he makes 100k a week today I guess he keeps it all with no tax.

Unless the rumoured 45k per week he earns = 100k per week we'd have to pay due to 50% tax?

 

[Insignificance]

So we can't trust the journos anymore? Where is the world heading....

 

[moneymay81]

Bring back Mark Walters

 

[Wilko7]

Bring back Mark Walters

Ah yes, Walters. I miss his stepovers with no opposing player within 20 feet of him.

Will.I.AM DUH as In I.AM.GAY!

Get with it hate monger.

Your avatar backs up the consensus that you're gay!

 

[Ijg]

I agree with Jon that its fucking annoying that spurs seem to be trying to sign everyone that we are.

Doesn't help that I also despise the cunts.

Sign this twat just to piss them off.
