Fans want Willian to start
The 29-year-old attacking midfielder has been in and out of the Chelsea squad in the English Premier League this campaign with the Stamford Bridge fans often getting behind him, but the winger has now placed himself in a good position to start in the UEFA Champions League clash against FC Barcelona in the Nou Camp on Tuesday evening.
Chelsea fans on Social media were quick to say that the Brazilian and Eden Hazard should flank winter signing Olivier Giroud in the attack against the Catalan side.
Hazard must remain at Chelsea
Also, former Chelsea midfielder Ray Wilkins has adviced that the club have to keep superstar forward Eden Hazard at the Bridge amid interest from La Liga giants Real Madrid.
The Belgium international forward has been the club’s best player in a mixed second season under Antonio Conte.
The 27-year-old has netted 11 goals and has provided two assists in 21 matches in the League in the 2017-18 campaign so far.
