Arsenal during his playing days - and the Chelsea legend is winding up Gunners fans even now after mocking the north Londoners for letting Willian leave for free. The Brazilian midfielder completed a move back to his home country with Corinthians after Arsenal cancelled his contract on Monday.His time at the Emirates will not be remembered fondly by Arsenal fans, who never really warmed to the 33-year-old following his free transfer from Chelsea last summer.Part of that was down to Willian's inconsistent form, with the midfielder doing little to justify his three-year deal reportedly worth more than £200,000-per-week.
