Chelsea Legend 11

Oscar's contributions offensively are not enough for a squad like Chelsea, however, his overall game make him extremely valuable to side. People tend to forget that when he's not having his best game offensively and defensively he's second to everything. More often than not he does just enough offensively to warrant being in the side but his contributions at that end of the pitch have to improve. At times he looks as though he doesn't know what to do with the ball and it leads to a turnover. When he's making quick one touch decisions he looks like the player we need him to be, its when he's asked to threaten the opposition with individual skill where he's left me wanting more.

Still need more from him... He plays the no.10 which is the auxiliary striker.

anyways... as a sidenote to the drama queens in this thread I thought Oscar was dreadful today, I really like him as a player but today he just looked well off the pace. But football is a funny little game, he looked destined to be subbed at the half right up until he scored the vital 1st goal. If he's not winning tackles and being a pest he can be rather ordinary.

Either way I don't care who it is whether its Qatar Airways, Yokohama or Yoko Ono so long as its more money for the club I couldn't care less. CAREFREE.

Me too.

His saves, saved our asses

Cech saved our asses. Literally!

TOP OF THE LEAGUE

Football is a funny game. Oscar was the worst player on the pitch and probably would've been subbed at half, he comes up with the goal.

ZOUMAAAAAAAAA

Still looking for a decent price for this one... so hot.

If you can come up with the names of three teams that are integrating youth players into their squad and winning trophies I will accept what you're saying. This is a very high level our youth are trying to crack which is why so much investment is being made.

But the club is still profiting overall from the investment.

If there is nothing wrong there would be no need for a statement. Something is going on.

The true feelings will be revealed. Messi and his family will release a statement to report truthfully to media & fans of #FCB on the actual situation (via @romartinez70)

What? Costa, Matic, Ivanovic, Cahill, Zouma, Terry, Drogba, Mikel. I would say we have one of the bigger squads in the league easily.

not saying he doesn't I just don't believe that is what is actually going on. Why would the president go to Messi and tell him that? The whole world knows except Enrique? Not likely...

They've changed their stance yet again... Had a 1-yr contract with a break clause that they had amended on the 31st. Safe to say City and Frank are talking bullshit to save face and are doing a piss poor job.

bullshit. So the President said to Messi the he needs to wait until after the Atleti game before he can fire the coach, but don't worry win or lose he's fired. I don't buy that at all...

They had no choice they couldn't buy another striker in november. Who would want to go there anyway?

Quoted in the Guardian, City said: "The statement on the NYCFC website in July saying Lampard's two-year contract took effect from Aug 1, 2014 was a mistake. [The] initial statement on City's website that it was a loan was also an error. "There was a head of terms commitment from Lampard to join NYCFC from Jan 1, 2015. That was extended to the end of this season. Any contract with NYCFC will now take effect from July 1, 2015." LOL

"It's not so easy because Frank is a New York City player. He is only on loan until December 31, so we must respect the other people." What am I missing here? Manuel Pellegrini had that to say on the 31st? Did he not get the memo?

They went to Kane after every other striker they had shit the bed repeatedly. If that's what you guys are considering as a legitimate shot at the Prem, well then every youth player we have has got a long wait ahead of them
