CHOULO19 24,332 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 or just choose better, even if he takes a tad long. He had a great match, no question about it, but it still showed at least 50% of the time his decision making in the third final is terrible, but you're right, he's also indecisive about what to do and that many times messes up with the decision.Hopefully he'll get there, I really like Willian, despite all the frustration that comes with him.He has immense flair and ball control though.For me, he's the second most talented player in our squad after Hazard which makes it even more frustrating!

happy_juan 64 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I was against the signing because I thought we were completely over-paying for him and he is too "light-weight" for the PL! tbf, people would have expected that from you. You still think Obi Mikel is not a shit footballer. FabHazard and CHOULO19 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Oscar the bricks behind the Roman Empire at ChelseaCongratulations are in order for Mr Abramovich he has cracked the code!For years the chairman has sat in one of the most lavish of directors boxes on offer in the world.But, in recent seasons his football-watching experience has not been perfect, certain changes had to be made.His leather seats were not what was bothering him; it was the years of viewing lacklustre football that meant the business tycoon was a frustrated man.Every season he teetered with his system, making bold sackings and wacky transfers has been a mere means of displaying a desperation for something more.But now the Russian can turn-up expecting to witness samba football, not having to fear this is going to affect his ruthless expectations of cross-competition trophy success.Romans trial and error experiment has resulted in the positive realisation he needs to take a step back when it comes to transfers.Before when he made mega-bucks transfers, he seemed to throw mud at the wall to see what would stick, but rarely would those signings adopt the style of play that both the brains and the piggy bank behind the club wanted.This season, instead of making rash domineering decisions, it is understood he begun to openly communicate with others at the club before splashing out on the likes of Diego Costa and Cesc Fabregas.Astute long-term signings like these were bound to improve the flair and results of last seasons trophyless side.Furthermore, the managerial merry-go-round seen at Stamford Bridge is proof enough of the chairmans dissatisfaction with his recent employees.Fans fondly remember Ruud Gullit and Carlo Ancellotis tenures in which similarly mouth-watering football to today was played.Ancelottis sacking at the time miffed many, but now could look a stroke of genius.The right transfer policy was not in place as signing David Luiz and Fernando Torres for extortionate sums led to no success in his second season.Two previous managers to reach the Champions League final at Chelsea were sacked soon after for dull and tedious football Avram Grant and Roberto Di Matteo failed to adapt the technique which got Mourinho sacked in his first stint at the job.Nullifying opponents attacks gained them success in Europe, but this parking the bus style looks a distant memory of what they are today.Chelsea achieved their record-scoring Champions League victory in midweek against Maribor moving the ball with a swagger and will certainly look to seriously push on.They are not playing gung-ho all-out-attack football. Each movement at Chelsea starts off at a slow tempo, matching the level of energy needed to expend, and crescendos into measured and well thought out destruction.Free-flowing football, reminiscent of the samba approach Brazil have played over decades, is being made effective in a league which relies on strength, power and speed.Chelseas effective samba football can be partially attributed to the adaptation of player roles.Full-backs Branislav Ivanovic and Felipe Luis have proved adept at the top of the field, while Gary Cahill and John Terry look completely different to last year, not so concerned about holding a deep line but attempting to win balls in the midfield area.However, the pinnacle of this energetic football comes from their unsung hero Oscar.The 23-year-old is turning into the complete footballer, modelling his game on Kaka both offensively and defensively.His high work-rate is demonstrated by hounding opposition players all over the pitch, looking to turn the course of play into the perfect attack.Surging runs are not his game, unlike the silkiness and confidence of Hazard and Willian who bully defenders by running at them with the ball.Oscar confuses defenders with his off-the ball movement and positioning, which is better than anyone in the Chelsea team, enabling the side to play in the way they do.He knows who is around him and if there is not the potential of a goalscoring chance, he will pass it back and get himself into a better-placed position.He has the highest shot accuracy of the Chelsea midfield this season and his goal against Crystal Palace last week is a prime example of his raw talent.The current side could be on the road to great success, with words like quadruple and invincibles being bandied around.But it is Oscar who is the clubs present, the clubs future and who will one day be looked back as the epitome of Abramovichs most successful achievement.http://www.swlondoner.co.uk/comment-oscar-bricks-behind-roman-empire-chelsea/ Danny Boyukliev 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 5 Things Chelsea's Oscar Must Do to Take His Career ForwardThese are the times I can't stand B/R articles.. "Do Not Give in to Temptation: Remain at Chelsea". I'm struggling to remember the last time a player, in their prime, moved away from Chelsea to a bigger/better club. Perhaps Robben to Real? And even then you could argue that was prior to said 'prime' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rom2013 446 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Another shit game. Against Schalke he was the worst, and in many other games.The only player that maybe is playing worst than Oscar in the starting eleven this season is Willian and Willian doen't have a garanteed spot in the team. The same happened last season but at the end Willian was a lot more important.You can all continue saying how good he is, and the grat games he is doing... but in reality he was the weakest link between the AM's in the starting XI last season, and this season he will be again. We compare the performances of Matic, Fabregas, Hazard, COsta and the regularaty of Willian and we can see that Oscar is far from what you say he is. stroey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbara 15,149 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Mourinho 10 days ago said he isn't the kind of player that can play 10 matches a month - then he plays him thrice a week.Go figure.and he wasn't anywhere near as bad as some of you are making. The same people that were MIA in this thread in the 2-3 weeks before.Figures. The Chels and DYC. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Oscar: "Ah, Didier he is fantastic. Fantastic player, fantastic person and I am so happy he is a part of the team. I learn from him" #CFCOscar: "Drogba wants to score every game. I watched @didierdrogba on TV when I was young, and we now play together" #CFC (Mail)Oscar: Mourinho tells the attacking players to go for goals, to play our football, but when you dont have the ball you have to defend. #CFCOscar: "Mourinho speaks before the games and makes sure our feet stay on the floor." #CFC (Mail)Oscar: "The unbeaten run is on our minds. But the team just starts again every time & plays for a win, and if we win or if we draw it is OK"Oscar on @didierdrogba: "He speaks not just with me, but with all the attacking players." #CFC (Mirror)Oscar on @didierdrogba: "Hes scored so many goals for Chelsea and now hes pushed so much the young players" #CFC (Mirror)Oscar: "Drogba is a fantastic player, a fantastic person. I am so happy he is a part of the team & I am learning a lot from his experience."Oscar: "Last year the team was good but this year it is better, because players like Cesc Fabregas and Diego Costa have come here." #CFCOscar: "Im playing well, Eden & Willian, we are all on form.
