To which I commented... "the attraction of playing for Villas-Boas and also living in London could sway the player’s thinking." When did playing for AVB become such an attraction? He has a foreign accent, so he must be good. Is that the thinking here? I think the chance to play with some fellow Brazilians and play for the 5 times European champions will be a bigger pull than playing for a team that sometimes win the FA cup when the year ends in a 1....
He did say Brazilians, the s makes it plural, do they have more than one Brazilian? We have Lucas and Coutinho, 2 against 1 so far, I can't remember if they have anymore than one?
Personally I'd love Willian, fantastic player and would add a lot of flair and goals to our team. Just hope the spurs talk in bs.
WBA signed Pablo Osvaldo for 15 mil..... WTF????? How did that slip under the radar of the big clubs?
hope so too, but apparently Willian and AVB are friends and he wanted him when he first signed for Spurs. must be curtains for Bale though if they get him, or they have spent a hell of a lot of money other wise.
http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/liverpool-fc-still-hunt-30m-5749250 Liverpool FC are locked in a battle with Tottenham for Brazilian winger Willian. Both clubs have held talks with Anzhi Makhachkala and are willing to meet the Russian outfit’s asking price of around £28million. Much now hinges on the Reds’ ability to agree personal terms with the 25-year-old and convince him that Anfield would be the ideal destination. Willian is considering the rival offers and is expected to make a decision about his future in the next 48 hours. Aly Cissokho is set to undergo a medical today ahead of completing his season-long loan move to Liverpool from Valencia. The Reds have the option to sign the French left-back on a permanent basis for around £4million next summer. The ECHO understands Liverpool have also renewed their pursuit of Sporting Lisbon centre-back Tiago Ilori. Rodgers was keen to wrap up a deal back in June but talks between the clubs broke down. The Reds had a bid of around £3million rejected with Sporting demanding more than double that amount. However, Ilori’s refusal to pen a new contract in Portugal has given Liverpool hope that a compromise fee can now be agreed for the 20-year-old. The Reds were represented at Sporting’s game against Arouca yesterday and further discussions were held with the young defender’s representatives.
Looks like we're going to miss out. Unfortunately with both teams out of the CL, Tottenham also have the London factor. Shame.
who cares... when something happens it happens. its all just speculation until then and a waste of valuable time.
