🇧🇷 Oscar

[Beepu 1,714]

Don't think I've ever been as disappointed in a chelsea player as I am with Oscar (bar Torres). He had so much hype and so much promise but nowadays he can barely keep the ball. Won't repeat what many have said about consistency or the lack of it. I still like the person but as a player not as much.

Would keep as a squad player though as he is clearly talented but just not starting material. Would sell if a good offer came from a club that he actually wants to go to, not China.

People are just frustrated with Oscar, it is 100% incorrect to blame him for the result against PSG but they are expecting him to atleast show his "talent" once in a while.

He scored a hat trick a few weeks ago and was great against Arsenal.

 

I understand the frustration but Costa missed two sitters yet Oscar's getting slagged off for one half chance lol.

THIS!

Cant disagree with a word here except for keeping him as a squad player. Would simply eat away time for young players like RLC or Musonda or Boga either playing on the wing or as a no.10.

He exactly the kind of player that we should sell if we want young players to come through at the club.

[Special Juan 28,141]

He's not worthy of a spot on the bench for me, he just simply is not good enough.

I have hardly seen anyone talk about Oscar's chance and yet Gilvorak is criticizing 'imaginary people' to talk about his boy.

He has been so quick to defend Oscar against PSG but he would not say any word on Willian for his performance. I don't think he has or ever will compliment Willian or accept that he was wrong about him. When Willian never used to be a stats wonder, he would be the first to go into his thread and criticize him, stating he is not good enough etc, Oscar was a better player etc but since he performs he just leaves it. Guilt all round

The day Oscar leaves the club could be great to watch.

Good thing for him that day won't come any soon.

He'll settle for a career here like Mikel and others before him. He's heavily featured, but isn't an absolutely titular. He won't push for more chances, he won't push for a transfer unless it's from a big team, in a big league - which ofc won't happen.

He'll stay here for a decade... write my words.

I've since long lost hope on him. I don't think he'll ever reach his potential, basically because he settles for mediocrity. the same reason he'll stay for as long as he has a contract.

[King11Didier 916]

No, he won't be here for a decade if we get a good manager.

People also seem to forgot that he actually likes Chelsea a lot. At least he says so.

So if players say that, we should be okay with them staying?

No. What I was trying to say is that I think Oscar will want to stay here for a long time since he likes Chelsea so much
Wasn't saying anything about us being ok with it

Of course he would want to stay. We seem to be happy with mediocre players like him!

I, for one, am not happy with mediocre players. While I do think Oscar can, and should, do much better than he is, he just lacks the consistency to become a good/great players. If he will stay like this (inconsistent) then I want him gone. 
I think Lampard joined us when he was 23 years old. Oscar is 24 years old, so he has time to turn the corner.

Consistency is a major issue for him but take that out for a second, what exactly is he even good at? He's not great at anything but decent at everything. He's basically a jack of all trades!

And a jack of all trades can be good to have... on the bench. What I think is more important than selling Oscar, is to get a nr. 10 better than him and demote him to the bench.

[Special Juan 28,141]

He's the shits, sell to China for 40M or some gullible side in Europe for 15M. Heart like a pea, not good enough.

[Pizy 18,928]

Think the Mikel comparison is valid. Oscar will continue to do just enough to be kept around but I doubt he'll ever do anything that makes him a crucial, must be in the first XI player.

Maybe if he has a great remainder of the season we can use him as some sort of bargaining piece for a better player. Possibly with Atleti if we can prize Simeone away.

His off the ball movement is good, he can be very difficult to play against. On his good days he offers goals, his shooting technique is quite good, imo.
He has to work on a lot of things, not denying it, but he is under contract and clearly wants to stay here, we could do worse than having him on the bench.
There are so many problems within the squad, i for one would leave Oscar alone, at least for now.
