There are reports in Ukraine saying that we have had a bid accepted for Willian.
If true, this is fucking excellent news!!!!

Not convinced by Willian and think we have cover to tide us by for now (Townsend/Dos Santos). I think we should address the main areas i.e. CM and goalscorer. Do what we have to to get Falcao and Moutinho then assess and scout until January whilst removing further deadwood and get in some younger back-up, do a job players then including addressing the GK and wing areas.
My 4 would be Lloris, Moutinho, Falcao and Isco.
I just listened to that Radio interview, and he does say that he's heard from his Ukranian source that a bid has been accepted for him.
He then goes onto say whether personal terms can be agreed, before finishing with "and if they can meet the £20 million pound asking price demanded by Shaktar" or something similar. Which leaves me feeling mighty confused!

I have seen also few youtube videos on William, he has good dribbling and technical skills and he looks like he has a good run, I do not know if he has the quality in passing or game vision...if he does so he is a quality signing and could partner well with Adebayour and Bale in the front line.
I do agree after reading some posts here that dribbling and technique are important, William and Bale could work their magic on the wings supplying Adebayor or cutting into the box.

Can you give me a one member name here that watched the last 2 season of Shakhter in the Ukrainian league ??? I do not peresume to be a scout, most of us take the information from the web,at least on that kind of players.and we all know judgements based purely on youtube are sound, don't we
The problem with the YouTube vids of him is that they aren't very recent. There are several other videos showing his individual performances in several games from the past year. They look much more promising. I was one of the people underwhelmed having seen the former videos.
