The Daily Mail is reporting that Chelsea have made a bid for Shakhtar's Willian

Sounds about right. At least they’ve stopped linking us with strikers.

Doesn’t have a great deal of talent, a great deal of competitive history against decent sides with anyt success and often livers off THAT Roma game.

Also, they won’t let him come to us for anything under £25million and for that we might as well add the 8 million and go for Hazard. Eden’s a better, younger, more able and more flexible player more used to a league more like ours and more than makes up the difference in price for this watcher.

Doesn’t help that every time I’ve seen Willian he’s been really poor this year, either, and even when going through decent spells he’s more inconsistent than even most wide players. I’d prefer Jovetic to this guy and I’m no fan of his since the cruciate went. Wingers with bad knees don’t stay wingers very long when they have a serious one so young-too big a risk and they’d want a similar price to this guy. Aren’t we back in for Dzagoev? I like him a bit and he’s cloe to contractual freedom s maybe in the £10m illion area, no? Less of a gambler and we’d get cash back if he didn’t shape up too well here too-we might even make on him! I just think buying Willian or Jojo at £20million plus seems worse value and a bigger risk to us than Hazard for the same(buyout) as he’d cost in ther summer as he’s better or the likes of Debruyne or Dzagoev as they’d be cheap enough and (KDB def) at a good stage to just loan out and gain experience or value.

Anyway, this guy joins the pile with Jovetic, Krasic and me in it as a wise player we shouldn’t sign this window! I’m dodgy knees and hard to settle p[ersonal terms wth because I insist on living within three miles of a Seaworld AND within three of a zoo WITH mating Pandas.

I think we need Hazard or De Bruyne. Then we can get Eriksen or Goetze later..
