But what number would I get then? :cry:

I'm not wearing Bosingwa's 17?!

Who?

I mean a remember a right-back a few years ago that once might have worn the number, but because he was so bad i think the image of him was curved out of my memory :carlo:

I think it was just a floating mono-brow :noexpression: ?

I know he didnt score or assist, but this was one of his best performances for me. He came deep, controlled the tempo and gave some exquisite passes.

This is how he plays for brazil and how i want him to be for us. fantastic performance for me.

I thought I would be the only one noticing. He, Azpilicueta and Matic. Brilliant game.

He had a very good match with some very good passes today.

I come back to my words a few days (weeks?) ago: without Mata there, instead of feeling the pressure to replace him, I think he'll play more carefree and less pressure. Can't wait until he improves even more :)

Exactly. Now he can feel more secure and concentrate on being the complete team player, and help hazard like he does for neymar.

he was like a metronome. think he had more passes than any non defender. most were accurate and crisp too

you're right. He's only behind Cahill and Luiz, with 53 touches and 85% accuracy rate (and three key passes in the match).

Here what we were discussing the other day. The boy thrives under pressure and he likes it (interview given to the official site)

"It's always important to try to improve with every game. I have been pleased with my performances so far this season but with so many important games to come I want to stay at a high level,' he explains. 'Playing in big, pressurised matches definitely helps and hopefully there will be more of them to come between now and the end of the season.'

"I doubt he would be a starter at City, Liverpool, Arsenal or Tottenham let alone teams like Barca, Real or Bayern."

"Coutinho >>>>>> Oscar."

Think Oscar has performed ok for us this season. However, fans expecting a traditional (i.e, flamboyant) Brazilian no. 10 or a Mata-type player will be disappointed. That was never his game from what I've seen of him at NT level and with us, Oscar is more of a fetch and carrier type player with the odd bits of skill and creativity. He plays a selfless role in keeping the play moving, allowing others like Hazard and Willian to shine. He reminds a bit of Zinho from Brazil's 1994 World Cup winning team. Not too flashy, but plays a job. You need vertical players like him to rotate the ball in midfield and make the runs to open up play.

I hope he can evolve into an Iniesta-type player, but he needs to improve his strength on the ball first and be more careful in retaining and distributing the ball. He still at times loses possession easily or makes the wrong pass. Reminds me of Hazard a little early this season when he kept squandering possession up the field. Hopefully Mourinho can iron this out of his game.
