Everton extended their unbeaten run post-lockdown with a victory over Leicester City at Goodison Park but once again supporters were not in attendance.
Many took in the game from home with the likes of Michael Keane and Anthony Gordon receiving their fair share of plaudits from the Toffees faithful.
It wasn’t the only game of the night, though, as Chelsea versus West Ham was next on Sky Sports’ schedule and it appears as if some of Everton persuasion tuned in.
Would you take Willian on a one-year deal?
Absolutely!
No thanks!
And as a result, a few fans were left thinking about the possibility of snatching Willian up on a free transfer this summer.
The 31-year-old is set to depart the west Londoners at the end of the season with his contract set to expire. The likes of Arsenal and Chelsea have been linked with a move for him.
But many in Merseyside wouldn’t mind seeing him remain in blue, claiming that it would be a “no-brainer” for Carlo Ancelotti and that they should take the £20.25m-rated winger “in a heartbeat.”
Here’s how fans reacted to his performance during Chelsea’s defeat…
Absolutely.
