Here is a rather weak link for the Shakhtar player Willian. It says that Arsenal might sell Arshavin and get Bojan or Willian.

I don't really rate Bojan and getting him to replace Arsahvin would be ridiculous, but, what about this Willian guy? Looked a fast and direct player when he was playing for Shakhtar.


Also notice how they claim that Arsenal would offer Denilson to Shakhtar as a makeweight for the Willian deal followed by quotes from Denilson who says that Willian would be a great addition at Arsenal.

He doesn't seem like too much of an improvement than we already have. Although Shakhtar do have quite a good record of producing good young players.
If we are going to buy another midfielder, he should be a top quality one, especially if he is replacing Arshavin, otherwise there seems no point.
I'm rather hoping any transfers done will be experienced quality players, rather than potentially good players.
I suppose if it means getting rid of Denilson, and he is not too expensive, it might be ok

Selling Arshavin instead of Rosicky first is a no-no, but Denilson in exchange interests me. :lol:

Willian is not even the best wide player in Shakhtar, its Douglas Costa

That Douglas Costa is very gifted right?

On the Douglas Costa front, he is stitched up for Manure is he not? His whole entourage were at one of their games earlier this season, and they almost had the deal stitched up before he looked for pastures new due to work permit issues if memory serves.

That Willian fella was awesome against us this season. Would like him here, but not at the sacrifice of Arshavin. Rosicky and Denilson though, they can bugger off to the Motherland double quick!

I think I'm more excited the article says we're giving Denilson away, rather than us signing a new player.

I think this is just a mashup story due to Denilson quotes few months ago. He said he would like Willian to come to us.

Hardly a convincing link without relevant quotes.

He was linked in the mail a few days ago <a class="postlink" href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1383607/Arsenal-line-Shakhtar-Donetsks-Willian-Samir-Nasris-potential-replacement.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/footba ... ement.html</a>

But even in his youtube show-real this guy looks pretty mediocre. next.

Talksport saying we made a move. 12m + denilson. Bloody exciting if true. Gervinho + Willian. Wings are in desperate need of a revamp.

A 20 million pound deal. Is Willian worth that?
