Oscar

Great game coming on! Continue, young impregnator

That dive was incredibly stupid and thank god it didn't cost us the points. He really made up for it later, though.

[JDY 1,290]

Absolutely fantastic apart from the dive. Him & Willian provided that injection of pace and willingness to make runs in behind which we were desperately lacking.

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,733]

Brilliant.

[Namika 922]

He's getting back to his form from the start of the season, nice. Hope he will be at his best come ferbruary.

[The only place to be 11,313]

Hated the dive, loved everything else. He's our most important player in almost every phase of the game and he's starting to build a real rapport with Willian and Hazard too.

Now if only he could put in a corner.

[pgleo 90]

A slap and clap for Oscar today !! Was brilliant.

[Beigl 1,387]

Really dominated the game alongside Hazard and Willian after he came on.I didn't get why he dived,because he could have scored aswell.But he put things right afterwards,so i don't bother to complain.

[Zoro 151]

I hate players who would rather go down and get a penalty than go through and score.

Oscar did make it up to us fans by a brilliant display. Just hope he keeps it out of his game.

Heres hoping he doesnt spend too much time with Dani Alves this summer.

[Korea 734]

Ki did the same thing and got Howard sent off last week...

I think that why Oscar went for the dive/fall.....

1-0 vs 1-0 against 10...

Also, nowadays, everyone dives..... Literally everyone.... (just not as blatant)...

Chelsea's most complete player, 2 assists, 1 goal for 40 minutes, not to mention the usual godlike linkup play, pressing, tackles and duels won. I've always thought Mata was big fish in a small pond, especially last year. The team is much more gelled and competitive with Oscar. First half was last year's Chelsea with Mata and second half was this year's Chelsea with Oscar, the difference is obvious both in game play and points won.

He is truly marvellous. We scored five goals in our last two games — Oscar was involved in each of them. One goal ; two clear assists ; two "lucky" assists. And it's not all about stats — his volume of play has been simply incredible in the last two games, he was the heart of the team.

I remember some days ago someone was wondering why it wasn't Hazard that got the n°11 — it is clear, Oscar walks throughout Drogba's path as the ultimate team player. He scores, he assists, he passes, he presses, he tackles and he is a drama-queen.

As the matches pass, he is becoming more and more important for the team ; and he is growing a pretty good understanding with both Hazard and Willian. We really have a gem in him, I am so happy that we have him.

P.S. Once again today he has proved why he is the player to which Mourinho entrusts our play.

[Jype 6,398]

Just announced on Instagram that his wife is pregnant, no surprise given his goal celebration today though.

No wonder he's been playing well lately, key to good form on the football pitch is being happy with life in general.

[The Skipper 20,593]

Oscar is growing into some player. He keeps this up (offensively and defensively) and he'll be the most complete #10 in the world. Finally beginning to show his creative touch which I thought he has been missing a bit this season.

[bushman 2,043]

There is no one or should be anyone to deny his immense contribution to Chelsea in this season.

Those who think Mata should be given chances to play ahead of Oscar are clueless. At the start of this season, I was one of them, thought Mata could be more valuable. Now, I admit I was wrong, Oscar plays much better, is better for the team.

I honestly do not know, whether it makes sense to keep Mata now. Most likely, he might not even come back to his best. Mentally, Mata is damaged. I mean, to be subbed at half time as today, it leaves a big doubt on your mind.

Now, Jose ought to talk to Oscar & warn him. No more fucking diving or...This club does not need that shit, the most hated club in UK & Jose is an outspoken provocateur to add more fire in.

[robsblubot 3,205]

old habits die hard... typical play in the Brazilian league when players go for the dive vs the finish. Hard to argue against it there, since the refs promote that behavior not only by giving the PKs but also by showing yellow and reds all the time.

Something he has to work out of his system.

As far as I am concerned he got us the 3 points against the saints today.

[Korea 734]

Hes spending too much of his free time with Neymar...

[The Skipper 20,593]

Hes spending too much of his free time with Neymar...

Oh no! God forbid him spending time with one of his closest mates!

On a serious note though, has nothing to do with Neymar, it's just how football is in general in Brazil, players go for the penalty rather than the finish as Robguima said above.
