Santiago. 1,500 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 and what Lamps??He will start, but Oscar i feel will slowly take over him once he settles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Land 331 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Oscar always played with #16 for club.For the Nt he has worn 11 and 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 No, not really.A lot of palyers 'can' play out wide, should they though?... no. We need Hulk, a natural inverted right winger. Sturridge is primarily a CF now Drogba's gone.If we need any sort of winger, it should be one who can get to the byline and cross 9 out of 10 times rather than Hulk who prefers to come in and shoot more than pick someone out.

bababoom 4,478 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I'm not sure Lampard will play as much this season, from the recent interview he gave it seemed to me that once his contract runs out (next year) he will move to the MLS.I still think he'll play the big games because he's still got something to offer, but maybe against the 'weaker' teams we'll experiment a bit.

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I don't see a problem with that tbh, considering Torres (of all people) is our 'main man' this season. True but I'd rather a winger similar to Antonio Valencia, as in he gets at least 10 assists a season. Marin could be but I'm unsure if he will be a regular or just an impact player. Mata and Hazard are capable but they are probably greater at scoring goals than setting them up. Mata had a lot of assists last season but tbh we only looked to him for creativity so someone like Valencia would be a perfect fit on the right wing. Just a pity every winger wants to come inside these days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I will probably get slatted for this post, but anyways:I just hope that his price tag does not mean that we pull out of the market and play him on the wing instead. We've had more than enough converted wingers in recent years, it's about time we realize it's not working! I get that we have to make squad signings but the price and timing (i.e. in a time when we have more pressing needs on the wings and at RB) are far from ideal. Tbh, I'm very disappointed we're back to paying these crazy inflated prices after great signings such as Mata, Oriol, Cahill, Marin...etcI hope Oscar proves me wrong, but till now, all I've seen is yet another over-hyped Brazilian youngster.

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Exactly. Jesus Navas and Antonio Valencia are the best natural wingers in world football.If Ramires was naturally better technically he could be a natural winger. Offers great defensive work on the right as well, if he could get his touch and crossing much better than what it is now then he'd be a good option there too. Maybe we should look to pip Arsenal to Santi Cazorla? Isn't he not able to play as a winger and had decent assist stats for Valencia and Malaga over the last few years? Only problem for me is the team is vastly unbalanced and without Ramires or Kalou on the right/left offering help by tracking back and doing some dirty work we could be exposed.

Hazard and Mata are creative wingers who can play centrally, but compared to the best in that position like Ozil and Fabregas I think they are lacking in that position.

DDA 9,938 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 People shouldn't go crazy, he's not starter material yet.Welcome Oscar.Oscar is definitely starter material. It may take him time to adapt to our system but I really don't think it will, he starts for Brazil who have immense talent in abundance for most positions available. He may be young but plays with the head of a cultured professional , equipped to fit into a side that was 'lacking playmakers' quite nicely.

Santiago. 1,500 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Who ever thinks he was purchased to perform out wide i feel is mistaken, as i think RDM plans to put him in the central midfield alongside Mikel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DYC. 7,542 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I'm not a fan of all these crazy inflated prices but why is it always a problem when it's about us? Man Utd bought Anderson for €30 mil and back then paying that amount of money for a young and unproven player was considered even crazier, but that wasn't a outrage?And some advise, stop caring about the prices. If Chelsea is interested, the price goes up by 10-15 mil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DYC. 7,542 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 He's Brazil's n.10, i'm sure he's ready.He's the 10 of the Olympic team. And if it wasn't for the form and fitness issues Ganso has been going through, he probably wouldn't have been a starter.And it's not like Brazil are part of the elite anymore, we're not '02 anymore.That wasn't even my point though. These starting line-ups people are throwing around with Oscar in it.. they're expecting too much of the guy. Fans shouldn't cry if he doesn't immediately make an impact.
