MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Oscar ruined one counter-attack that most decent players would have taken advantage of. But then Oscar has poor technique and vision so it would have been a miracle for him to have made the right pass.His biggest contribution to the game was getting a player sent off. Other than that he did his usual bit of running around aimlessly and looking out of his depth.I'm eagerly awaiting Barbara's latest spin on proceedings. killer1257, laura90 and iseah100 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAB 1,030 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 He didn't do exceptionally well but Oscar was at least helping us to press and get errors from PSG's passing in the first half. His energy was missed in the second half and only a blind man can't recognize that. kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I think it wasn't exactly his departure - although as someone said Willian didn't actually add anything and couldn't keep up the pressing Oscar had going. I think the thing was that with Willian in the RW Ramires became our CAM. What the bollocks is that? Why not move Cesc there? My Brazilian commentator was just as puzzled as I was. And then add to the fact Ramires was really bad in the second, and there goes our midfield.So it was a bunch of factors, losing the pressing with Oscar, Ramires moving to a position he should never get near to - and then having a shocker.At the end of the day I think lack of heart, of wanting to win at all costs made us lose and having too much of it made PSG win. Fair game to them, that fought hard til the last second. Shame on us, that showed no fighting spirit, passion and desire to win.It's funny Cesc said just yesterday all this team missed was a killer instinct and that wasn't anywhere close in the pitch today - in addition to lack of effort. They were blood walking in the park out there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were blood walking in the park out there!Willian had no influence but it wasn't because he didn't try, the tactics changed at half time. Instead of costa and Oscar pressing up the pitch it was just Diego and everyone else sat off. The point of pressure shifted from 2 up top to 1.We played 4-3-3 not 4-2-3-1 like how we started. Ramires was the furthest forward because he had the legs to get forward and drop back in. Cesc was completely useless today and no matter what role you gave him he got exposed. I am assuming Jose was protecting him from picking up a yellow and missing the next game(shakes head) but with him and the tactic we employed it was basically 10v10.Cesc had no fight in the engine room and we lost the midfield battle. Oscar should've stayed on even with the yellow he was by far the most important player with how we set out to play today.

Hybrid Angel 2,130 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Sell him, hasn't showed any signs of improvement in the past three years. 99% of games he has no sense of urgency, terrible passing, weak mentality and overall poor displays. Sometimes he looks like he doesn't even want to play. Bosnian Blue, Liquidator, 11Drogba and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vybz Kartel 1,613 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I genuinely think we should consider moving him to central midfield. play the role Verratti was playing, his more of a midfielder than a a number 10. Think we would get the best out of him deeper. As for Cesc in the long term his gonna be a problem we will need to deal with because imo he is possesion less unless we adopt a Bayern Munich type of formation which I highly doubt we will.

Him next to Matic would be orgasmic stuff imo. Oscar would do a good job in a 433 as one of the central mid fielders I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oscar 441 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 AzpilicuetaMaticCahill (not so much this season)HazardWouldn't really say Matic or dave. Matic progressed in Benfica and dave as an attacker has been useless (however, the best 1v1 defender in the epl) And Cahill won the champs league and european league before Jose came... I agree with the brazilian guy Hazard is the only one that has actually progressed overall. laura90, couris and Henrique 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar 441 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Oscar gets subbed out in the second half and I still see supporters blaming Oscar for the inabiity to win the game last night..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Mikel OBE 4,920 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 He gave us the best chance last night by getting Zlatan off. We just did not capitalize.Definitely should start Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atholy 1,293 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 It's a lost case for Oscar I'm afraid. He did shine two seasons ago... and looked very promising. Since then he only dropped down. No improvement... bad decisions... Just looks like he's struggling most of the time! I like him in the link up play with Mata & Hazard... but those days are over! He just doesn't bring enough offensively! No creativity and a dreadful chance creation %!!!!IMO we should replace him and wish him all the best in a new club (because I think in another team he could do well)!!

But you gotta wonder, how much have all the matches he's played since 2011 (or 2012?) affected his physical and mental health? He's basically been playing football nonstop for the past few years without taking any break away from the game. CFC888 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
