Oscar

Seriously though, this squad is only lesser in talent to City. Arsenal has fantastic cams, but their balance is lacking. I can totally understand losing the title to City, but to be under United, liverpool, Spurs, Everton,etc is not acceptable. The team could be tired or what not, but man city always is tired/unmotivated and always get second place with their "lack of motivation/bad luck injuries." When is the last time we were in relegation zone? Tomorow could be the first time in years this has happen and might be the first time ever a champion team is in relegation zone.

He voted for Mane, mata, coutinho and his english mate sterling. 4 guys he tactically voted for.....So, guys like Cesc, matic, hazard and other teammates could get on the team without much competition, which I'm sure a ton of people do now a days in football... He didn't vote for Silva, Santi, Morgan S, sanchez, etc... I wonder why? Liverpool has scored 2 goals in 4 games with Coutinho starting....

Few posters including myself= I guess John Terry posts on talkchelsea... Can i have his id? I want him to autograph my kit Also, you really don't understand why JT picked Coutinho did you? "There’s no way Terry can seriously believe Coutinho has been better than De Gea and Kane this season! There is more to it than meets the eye," wrote Carragher in theDaily Mail. "John, I am almost certain, will have gone around Chelsea’s dressing room when the ballot papers came in and told the squad under no circumstances should they vote for De Gea or Kane, who are Hazard’s biggest challengers." The Sky Sports pundit claims the reason he is aware of the tactics behind the voting for the award is that he was once involved in it himself. He added: "I did exactly the same thing in 2006 when Steven Gerrard won! I was Liverpool’s PFA representative back then and I made it clear that, for Stevie to win, nobody should vote for Thierry Henry or Frank Lampard!"

City still yet to concede... Unbelieveable... Mangala is usually a sure bet to make a mistake and they are still perfect!

Predictions: KDB will have half the stats as last season or worse. Even without silva, nasri was taking a lot of the set pieces and yaya toure. Would be interesting to see how they incorporate him with Silva and Sterling when they come back on to the team.

JT? WOW.... He also voted for Juan Mata. SO, that says a lot. and even the dailymail questioned his thinking and the fact neither Spainards make TOTY says a lot about english media.

Bamford was never going to play for Jose.. However, doesn't mean we can up his value when the time comes to sell like we do other players

You look at general performance, but your id is STATs... The irony. Few posters including myself, already stated coutinho inconsistency last season, yet you are the only one to say he played consistently....

Your imagination of Coutinho and ramsey needs to be checked first.

Gomis form is a fluke imo.... Also, eder has look like crap and he can play backup to Gomis at least. At CP, Pardew has him as a midfielder moreso than a CF and at swansea they feed the ball well to their strikers... In addition, Siggs has looked like crap as well for swansea this season.

I know thibo's been out and red carded, etc. However, you really cannot disagree with the impact Oscar has on the team both going forward and defensively.

NOPE. Pardew has him as an AM, which is essentially why he cannot get game time at all.

Arsenal a big game, with the team already looking fatigue, we should play the youngsters, however, since Jose is manager, probably not... Hopefully, kennedy, rlc and baba can all start

Well, you guys wanted him at the n10 position and thought he could play the Jose mourinho n10 role.

Guys are stupid thinking he was going to come here rather than Barcelona. No one rejects either la liga giants. They come, you go.

This might be incorrect, however, looking at Oscar's social media, he has rarely put any reference to Chelsea in a while..... I doubt Oscar runs his facebook page, however, I'm sure either his sister/wife or family member/agent does, fact he has no reference at all to Chelsea makes me wonder.

Palace is too good for Bamford. Their attacking mids are all better than him. Come January, loan him out to swansea

And? Better than scoring 10 goals against San Marino

Dead man walking... Next few epl fixtures will be against good-decent teams.

City had the best roster in the EPL for the past half a decade. Don't understand why people are surprised...

World Cup goals: Neymar:4 (5 games) Messi 5 (15 games) Cristiano 3 (13 games)

Silva out tomorrow.... Good opportunity for KDB against an impressive CP side. he might get the start or nasri

Arsenal fans don't even want ramsey starting. They want a new cm and either ox or a new rw starting. Arsenal fans are displeased with jack because of his injuries and outside life, not jack wilshere football qualities.

Except Cout isn't, which is exactly why he has no place on brazil... Costa, willian and Oscar can all put up a shift defensively and go forward, Coutinho can't, which is exactly why he wasn't considered in the world cup squad and even now with oscar/ramires injured and neymar getting hurt, didn't get a start in either friendlies. Also, the only reason he got called up was because Oscar got injured. if coutinho was just as capable or better, than why wouldn't he have a place on brazil to complement Neymar? Also, coutinho is essentially last out of the ams right now, with potentially felipe anderson taking his spot as 6 am.

Except Coutinho would never start over Oscar here. maybe at liverpool, where the only defense is a good offense. Oscar can't dribble like Coutinho can, so maybe that is your point, which is true... Coutinho is definitely a better dribbler
