Yes it does but my point is that is how good Oscar has been not just on workrate, but what he has created both with goals and his assists. I still think he should be challenging Hazard for his starting roll, Hazard has not been good of late and Mata for me deserves a chance.
Really enjoyed that match last night, delighted for Shane Long and his two goals especially the first and refreshing to see a player not frightened to get it on his weaker foot and score.
It tells you how good Oscar is if he is keeping Mata out of the team. Saying that I don't think Hazard has been exceptional either so maybe Mata for Hazard.
Never ever under estimate the opposition, think solid, stay focused and remain in the moment. We play like we can this will be a good win, but Basel will see us as a cup final again. Focus focus focus
You can only beat what's in front of you, and we did, easily. Whu where poor but let's remember this was on the back of an international break where players have travelled a lot of miles and also after a poor show at home to west brom..... Simply put we performed very well.
Frustrated at him first few minutes but he got into the game well. Just wish with his stealth of talent he would drive at defenders more, he seems to take the easy option too much. But well done toda.
Let's be happy. Eto'o was brilliant today an so where others. So much to love about this performance after a horrible international break. Get iiiiinnnnnn
