[@gregboxingcoach]

Willian, Oscar, hazard, Fabregas, Costa in attack was an amazing thing to watch with Matic holding 👏

[@shamarwalker9243]

🔱🔱🔱🔱🔱🔱

[@NigelHyphenJones]

Agreed…. I saw it live many times…. Great Chelsea team

[@atrinandanshetti9206]

I watched few matches with this lineup but i don't no the which season that was???

[@loganart256_official3]

Not forgetting Pedro too !!

[@tempestional]

@@loganart256_official3 exactly!! so underrated

[@davidpierce7317]

I been Chelsea fan for almost 60years. What a great player, as well as a true gentleman. I wish him all the best for him and he's family.

[@shamarwalker9243]

OMG 💙💙💙💙💙

[@robinisaacs]

his*

[@erlandojakky4043]

How old are you

[@fernandosantos4836]

No. William is family.

[@ForeverRealistOne]

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.

[@gregor7975]

It definitely was a lack of effort and energy lol😂

[@chris94kennedy]

@@gregor7975 yeah literally lol

[@lollil3058]

Im just glad he did not pull an "Ozil" on us, with all this "respecting my contract" stuff, cause he definitely could

[@f-log8718]

Yeah that’s cool and all but he was so goddamn bad for us, felt like an agent

[@SachinRajputOfficial]

As an Arsenal fan how you feel knowing that he barely if at all mentioned Arsenal? That’s crazy isn’t it?

[@pooroldnostradamus]

Him and Hazard on the wings was such a treat

[@Tombola8610]

Just wished we kept de bruyne at cam

[@OfficialGobbledyGooker]

Proper Chels..

[@cwaddle]

Willian was decent, but i think his style is too safe steady. He might have been better as a wing back

[@Emre_Za]

And penaldo as a defensive benchwarmer

[@user-hg8mj9og2l]

@@cwaddle You friends with Potter mate?

[@ybone8709]

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 👏

[@themilioxperience2427]

I disagree. Willian was ever bit as good as Hazard. This kid has major talent and we won a lot by having him on the pitch

[@bellousman701]

You're right, and he scores a lot of free kicks goals as well.

[@Enzo.C]

He is a Chelsea legend

[@chaiwalaiq3952]

Will never forget 6 crucial freekicks he scored that season. Forever Blue💙💙💙

[@MrNurdler]

A real Chelsea legend. When he retires from playing I would love to see him back at Chelsea coaching. He will always be a part of the Chelsea family.

[@TheWorldsEnd66]

As a Chelsea fan, it doesn’t cloud my perception of him as a wonderful player, person and I wish him all the very best whichever shirt he wears, and have done whichever he has worn. He’s a class act.

[@jackwaterman1028]

What a player he was for us, sometimes frustrating but when he was on it boy did he perform. Plus he loved a goal against spurs ahaha UTC 🔵

[@S0L12D3]

That’s Brazilian players for you

[@PaulMassaweunfiltered]

As a chelsea fan; He is a chelsea Legend for me, hard work and talent. I know kante is the most humble soccer but William is also humble and he loves chelsea, most players nowadays put money first but I feel William loved chelsea 💙 so much and probably didn't want to leave when he left.

[@loganart256_official3]

Willian, Pedro, Hazard, Fabregas,Oscar, Costa what a Combo 🔥 that was!!

[@F1andfootballfan144]

Not a Chelsea fan but I loved him as a player. Was sad to see him go but luckily he’s back in the prem

[@S0L12D3]

Glad to see him doing so well with Fulham. Much deserves! I believe he made a great decision joining them

[@ClinicalTimo]

Ay Pompey, best place in the UK imo

[@dcfootball1]

​@@ClinicalTimo Still Potter out? 🤔

[@ClinicalTimo]

@@dcfootball1 ofc

[@evanmannion9103]

He’s had the most under appreciated career of all time man he was pivotal to Chelsea’s success

[@notfrom63rd6]

i watched him the whole 7 years , every game. One of the most Pacey and clinical winger ever on a good day. at his prime he was a 100m player

[@mimiumoh]

he was absouletly amazing with us. keep on going bro. chelsea still love you 💙💙

[@chaaman]

Just look at their face smiling while saying "maybe Chelsea goes semi final, and then they are in a CL final again"... The fact their girls are chelsea fans make me love him even more fam. Underrated (not for us, ofc) baller. Fr wish him and his family all the best in their lifes💙💙💙

[@craiglewis6709]

Club legend. Always be a blue our Willian! 💙

[@Jacksonrodriguez]

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.

[@S0L12D3]

Such a skillful player! It’s nice to see him sat down for a simple discussion

[@thabisovuyohlalukana5037]

It's always nice to hear from the players, doubly so when it's great players like Willian who have had such an eventful career and achieved so much. Bummed he didn't stay at Chelsea to win his UCL medal but he did so much in his time there and I am sure he will make a superb agent when the time comes.

[@javedwilliams6078]

Such a genuine guy he is. Down to earth and humble you can see he’s very appreciative for what’s he’s achieved and quite respectful. Still a blue at heart Willian

[@thomasmurray3920]

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.

[@freshfingersff]

The smile he puts on when he talks about Chelsea, says it all .

[@edwardsesay3602]

I watched this video and I miss willian and David Luiz , I’m definitely watching some of their videos after this , Chelsea have given us incredible memories 👏🏽

[@roman369]

Happened to have someone working in my home who did some work for Willian during his Chelsea time. Said he was the nicest warmest customer in twenty years in the trade. Really warm soul. I hope he has a long and successful time in London.

[@five.creates]

LOVE WILLIAN WHAT A LEGEND WISH HE STAYED

[@ykzzy4876]

Willian is aging buh the way he still plays, is absolutely phenomenal. I watched him play for Fulham against Chelsea at the bridge and the way he played was like a 21 year old. My goodness!

[@hollowmatic]

What a player! I have time for Willian… absolute legend

[@NEO786]

This guy is pure class, always admired him tbh even I’m a City fan

[@ozzyosman28]

What a player. One of my favourites players even before Chelsea. That game for shaktar Donetsk against us at the bridge, he was worldclass, felt in love straight after that game.

[@prabowonegoro3693]

I was hoping soon after that game that we might sign willian someday. God was being nice to hear my prayer that day.

[@koutanot]

@@prabowonegoro3693I guess Roman is doing God's work

[@ovemartinfjellhy1750]

I was at that game. I told my mates that I hoped that Chelsea would buy him! A fantastic player! Worldclass! Chelsea Legend!

[@mccormickja]

Love Willian. 💙 It’s also nice to hear about an adopted Brit speak so warmly about this country. Makes a change from the usual negativity.

[@jaycampbell1992]

Always got love for Willian, was a top player for us 💙

[@okoyestanley5843]

Bro is so calm man 💙

[@zakaung]

Willian, Pedro, Hazard and Costa. Best attack we ever had.

[@stevenong1797]

I liked the combination of malouda,Drogba and anelka too 😁

[@prabowonegoro3693]

It's getting wilder when you realize it was Fabregas and Matic or Kante behind those 3. God we had a massive squad not gonna lie

[@Mindofadirector]

Top class player, we loved him at Chelsea for all 7 years. Very professional guy - you would always know what you got with Willian on the field. Him and Hazard on the same pitch was a very special sight

[@evansmutwiri7904]

Am a Chelsea fan for life. Willian is a Chelsea legend. I would put him in that list for sure.

[@aurynharris6361]

I was always a massive willian fan, easily one of my favourite players of all time

[@Emrajbari]

This is a great interview format. Footballers are just people and many are just good guys. He's definitely one of those.

[@RazielKB]

What a player and what a man he is can't thank him enough for those 7 years and really happy to see him enjoying his football again

[@christinewatts7086]

Wow what a great interview not only an amazing player, amazing man, and father but a lovely human being who is so happy with what life has given him.We sometimes think that players are money hungry not in Williams case he deserves that smile and thank you for all those wonderful memories at Chelsea.

[@londonisforeverblue1022]

as a chelsea fan we loved him!! he always stepped up at the most important times,and will forever remember his season when we finished 10th he was the only one that was playing for the badge. oh and he hates tottenham :)

[@zakimohamed9255]

Willian will always be one of the best player Chelsea ever had! Remarkable individual with a great personality. With him at the wing with Hazard, Diego Costa terrorizing the opponent's defence and Fabregas at the heart of the attack, Chelsea will always be the team who inflicted terror to the opponent! Good luck and all the best, Willian!! 💙💙

[@abdidesign3255]

I remember when Harzard and many of the other Chelsea players were so bad after winning the league and he was the only stand out player, scoring worldies and free kicks. What a player

[@frednsama7964]

Oh my dear Willian. You are a true legend.

[@marklapena854]

I absolutely love this guy. Proper Chelsea legend 💙

[@LightBrightSZ]

What a player and what a great person!

[@RoyalBlue292]

Willian is class. Top clobber, Bleeds blue a proper Chelsea Legend!

[@Matt231985uk]

Great interview!! Willian was a top player for Chelsea and it was such a shame to see him move on. Good to see him back in the Premier League doing well, and even better to see him and his family happy in London!!

[@nelson1789]

I'm so glad to see this appreciation for Willian in this comment section. I've loved watching him play so much. Very much under appreciated.💯

Amazing player for Chelsea. Amazing person

[@mistyabdul5948]

He’s Chelsea through and through 💙💙💙

[@Slice998]

Didn’t work out at Arsenal because we were going through a lot of change at the time and we just couldn’t afford to carry players who were expensive and past their best. Full respect to him for mutually terminating his contract, unlike certain other players we’ve had in recent times.

[@robbie9655]

Just a nice soul ! A nice man !

[@nirvikdotel1888]

I loved him when he was in Chelsea and still wish him the best at Fulham. Always wanted him on my team i.e. Real Madrid (I believe he would have done great). Best Wishes Willian.

[@dakamatak8242]

Willian one in a million. All the best to him and his family Legend always 💙💙💙💙

[@chrissmith6495]

Amazing to see he's still one of the fastest players with the non-stop work rate.For all those Chelsea years,especially towards the last,he was the only player who could create his own shot.Chelsea sure could use him now.

[@danielwak3343]

We miss you willian...we still love you at chelsea...

[@ChelseaSW6]

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

[@iBunZz360]

Proper Londoner now son! I'm not a Chelsea or Fulham fan, but always loved Willian as a player, seems like such a genuine, humble guy, and as a Londoner it's so nice to hear how happy him and his family are here.

If all 30m transfers( equivalent to probably 90/100 now) went as well as this one did for Chelsea… rarely injured , no mis quoted digs on international duty, fitted in 5/6 different positions, plenty trophies and left on good terms.. both financially and morally.. good luck to him he’s a nice guy as well
