In 2012 I predicted he would become a better player than Eden Hazard. With the help of my friends and family I have since been able to overcome my crack addiction

Hazard is Hazard, Oscar is Oscar and Mata is Mata.

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.

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.

Why do you feel the price is inflated? £25m or 25m euros (£19m) isn't that much for one of the top Brazilian players who will probably be their no.10 past the next World Cup.

Also we have Hazard, Marin and even Mata to play out wide; whereas we don't really have anyone of Oscars style, he appears to be an alternative to Modric and will play deeper then Hazard and Mata do. 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.

The price is inflated because he is 20 years old and still has a lot to prove. Yes he is Brazil's #10 but for a Brazil side that Heskey would probably be a starter in; after all what world-class options do Brazil have at the #10 position? None that I can think of. Besides we've bought Cahill and Marin for 7m who are two established players whom we needed.

Another point is I don't think Oscar is starter material yet and I don't how he can even fit in our current formation. He can't play in the double pivot because he can't be trusted defensively (I've explained this point thoroughly in this thread a few days ago) and we already have two world-class players fighting for that spot behind the striker. We all know that Mata is a disaster on the wing judging by numerous matches last season, and Hazard has made it clear on many occasions that he wants to play centrally.

I'm not saying that the boy hasn't got potential, but, unless we loan him out, this move could ruin the potential that he has.

Won't happen right away obviously, but i feel that is what the strongest option is once everything is settled.

Ye Im pretty sure Lampard will get the nod ahead of Oscar, hopefully Oscar gets chances during cup competitions.

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.

Who are we crossing to? Torres? Hazard? Mata? With the new team we should start avoiding high crosses from now on, they won't feed much.

Welcome Oscar,i believe this is our biggest signing in a long time, EXACTLY what we need to make our current squad flourish!

Long time? Forgetting about Hazard, are we?

you have to be insane to think oscar will be on bench more.. he will be a get GO from the start, i can't see anyone starting infront of him in that midfield with CDM(mikel or lampard - oscar)

to think a 25million dollar player is to come here and sit on bench for " learning curves " your just wrong.
