Oscar

[gr123 167]

Been a bit of a wanker with his tackling so far tonight..

[lucio 5,418]

quality assist

[Zinedine Iniesco 172]

God dam god dam god dam.

This is why i want to see him in the middle.

Hes been tracking back to defend, has been good in the counters, and provided a good assist.

[yuvala 2,167]

went a little bit missing on the 2nd half (maybe he defended more) but was good in the first half and gave a great assist!

[The Skipper 20,609]

Beast.

He will be one of Brazil's best and most important players at the World Cup next year. I think he will improve a lot this coming season.

[Dion 2,476]

He needs to be rested urgently if he is to improve his game and gain a bit of muscles. I hope we give him a break.

Congrats on the tournament, but Finally oscar can get a rest

The brilliance of Oscar is his simplicity. He makes things in such a simple way. You rarely see him doing those flashing plays. He makes superb plays by playing it in a natural, simple way.

That makes him so special in my eyes because that's hard to do.

uses the outside of his foot at an expert level, very effective with it, dare i say one of the best in the world at that specific technique

Messi, Iniesta, Hazard, Di Maria are quite the competitors for this title.

Finally after one and a half years busy schedules, he could get a fully deserved break.

[Styles 9,790]

Lovely assist, showed a lot of awareness of Neymar's position and waited until he was back on-side. His pressing and tackling last night was immense as usual.

The Osc

[francozola 2,040]

It's so amazing to me that he is not even 22 yet. What a player!!

[DanishBlue 426]

I love Oscar. He has been my favorite Chelsea player since the day he signed for us.

I'm 100 percent positive that he will be one of our most important players in the near future - he will even be better than Mata (don't flame me, that's just what I think even though it sounds like it's a fact).

God dam god dam god dam.

The problem we have at Chelsea is this: Whenever Hazard plays in the middle, he is a BEAST, whenever Mata plays in the middle, he is a BEAST, whenever Oscar plays in the middle, he is a BEAST. Nice little headache Mourinho will have.

[bababoom 4,478]

I think he's the type of player Mourniho loves, not only is he technically great but he works unbelievably hard, no matter what he's asked to do (play on the right, man mark players etc) he gives his all, i have nothing but admiration for the young fellow.

[Gilvorak 3,734]

Mou is definitely moving him into the middle next season. A player like Oscar is a coaches dream.

Mou is definitely moving him into the middle next season. A player like Oscar is a coaches dream.

I hope so, that might solve a couple of issues, the urgent needed of a CM and the overbooking on the attack.

His brilliance is not his simplicity — it's his intelligence. And that intelligence is being illustrated by that simplicity of his. In that aspect, he kinda reminds me of Zizou. 9 times out of 10, he will keep things simple ; but the tenth time, he will do that flashy play which is quite effective (while Zizou does his "roulette" (don't know if it's the right term in english), Oscar seems to do his backheel). And just as the great playmakers, he knows when to pass the ball, or when to wait and hold down the play, and not overdo things — that assist shows it perfectly.

When you add to that intelligence, his volume of play (work rate, involvement in the game, and mobility both in attack and defense) and his defensive capabilities, you just know that this guy is graven to be a n°10 ; our n°10. That's why I strongly believe that we just have to play him as our n°10 (if we keep playing in a 4-2-3-1 formation).
