🇧🇷 Oscar

Our defense let us down today. Oscar's performance wasn't even that bad, but I understand the decision to bring Ramires on, though I don't think he made much of a difference.

He could have scored if only the ball was traveling a few cm on the other side of the post.

Still think rambo isnt fully fit yet. I would prefer to see chelsea playing a full 3 man midfield with 3 of the 4 (matic, oscar, cesc or rambo) and let hazard play on the wings with willian working hard on the right... However, I think playing all 3 brazilians (rambo, willian and oscar) at the same time might be unneccessary and redundant.

Very quiet match today in all possible ways... I hope he gets his shit together and doesn't start another winter-long slump.

Willian was no better and Ramires at least tried harder.

We need Ramires to find fitness ASAP, as we don't have better AMs, Oscar - and especially Willian, who's rarely subbed off - may be getting too comfortable.

The problem with him imo is not his size. It is the question of does he have any outstanding qualities such as pace, dribbling or creativity. He is not poor in any of those aspects but he is not outstanding in any of those attributes either. What I see often is that he is able to play well with other members of the team but he cannot do anything spectacular if we are playing poor. For me that is down to the fact that he is not outstanding in particularly anything. Sounds harsh but that is how I feel.

Yes but he could improve in all of these attributes with hard work I feel, and he is very tenacious.

We'll see, if we get Khedira then we can push up Fabregas if we really need to.

If we do sign someone to play in the #10 position in January or the summer, I hope we go for a player whos coming up to his best years because Oscar's inconsistency is frustrating the hell out of me this season. Hes always improved each season since coming here but the consistency is his main problem. Subbed the last two games in a row at 45 minutes says it all.

People are focusing on Schürrle only atm, but Oscar also got subbed at half-time for a second time (in a row). It's obvious now that we will bring in some players this transfer window.

It's obvious that we need to strengthen the squad yes, but that's not the same as being obvious that we will. :)

Apologies for repeating myself but in Oscar we have a player who is of backup quality. Outstanding is the benchmark to be a starting quality ten for a club with our ambitions.

This transfer window? Doubt it. Who can we realistically get anyway?

Mourinho clearly sent a message about him in that audio post match interview in the match's thread.

He doesn't seem to have the right mind to approach games and take responsibility.

I still like him as a player, but he needs to take the same large steps Hazard has been given in his development. Oscar seems to take one forward, two back.
