3 players that Arsenal fans must watch in the Champions League

#1 Willian (Chelsea)

In what is definitely going to be Willian‘s final game for Chelsea, they find themselves trailing to Bayern Munich and now face a tough visit to Germany. I mean, this is a scenario that Arsenal fans are certainly no strangers to so it will be pleasing to see their rivals suffer the same fate.

Willian didn’t feature in the squad when Arsenal outplayed Chelsea and beat them to the FA Cup last weekend. However, many reports are claiming that the deal could be done already. According to Sky Sports, which is often reliable, the Gunners have just in the last hour (at the time of wrigint this) offered the Brazilian a three-year deal, which is what he was holding out for.

Whether these negotiations hinder Willian’s chances of starting in the match against Bayern remains to be seen, but I’m certain he won’t be too disheartened if so. He deserves a good send-off for his services to Chelsea, not a humiliation at the hands of the likely winners of the competition.

If Willian doesn’t feature in this match, then there’s a slim chance Philippe Coutinho, who is also a target of Arsenal’s, may feature on the other, winning half. That said, this game and the Barcelona match are must-watch. I mean, you’ll have to find a way of doing this yourself since they both kick-off at the same time, so let’s hope you’re better with technology than I am!
