He is brasilian, so he is good and very talented. It's in his blood.

However, what's also in his blood is being somewhat injury prone, and like a lot of brasilians, his body might not hold up as he evolves, especially in the EPL. He is in that Neymar category.

That is what is so amazing about Willian. Dude is made of concrete as a brasilian. You can tell he is not part of the night life, and takes care of his body. Dude is 31 and is still fast or faster than most on the pitch.

He has broken his foot and injured the medial ligament in his knee as a player at Man C, and he is only 23 years old. Those types of injuries early on are not good for a striker playing in the EPL, where he has to constantly cut, run and be physical in the box against centerbacks.

And he plays for a coach who is tenacious when it comes to training, and that does not help, which is why a lot of his players are always on the mend. KDB, Kun, The Silvas, Sterling at times....every other week or so, one of them will be on the IL or out for a game or 2.
