Oscar: 'I never quit and I get very angry with myself if my passes don’t find a Chelsea player'

Must have gotten pissed quite a lot!

needs to learn from Mikel and NEVER try to pass the ball forward

At least the kid is smart... actually anyone should be able to see that they balance each other, but it's nice that Oscar is aware of this.

Cesc Fabregas is my perfect midfield partner and we're going to become even better to help Chelsea win the Premier League, says Blues playmaker Oscar

oh sure, he is because 88% and 85% in both matches he's played for us this season is quite bad for an AM.

Kinda ironic you throw those stats out when you have that particular phrase about stats in your signature.

And in this particular case, her sig is right: Oscar's pass completion is skewed because he has beed dropping deep often. Nothing wrong with that though, just pointing out that such stats are indeed misleading.

He does need to improve his pass completion in the final third for both Chelsea and Brazil.

On the other hand, when and if he does complete those passes, he will be the best AM in the world.

but you're the one who brought the subject of how many passes he misplaced, not me

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Lol, how come he put cfc hashtag on it.

'cause Oscar is guilty of going missing for half a season

With Courtois now signed up, and Hazard seemingly next, it's strange that there doesn't seem to be much chatter about a new deal for Oscar.

I don't see it as urgent to be honest. Who is really interested in Oscar? Why would they? He didn't have a good season - only a good half, he didn't have a good WC (although not terrible either). His form's been on limbo and so is interest for him imo. Of course, it'd be wiser to extend his contract now - so it'd prevent him from asking too much money if he's at the top of his game - on the other hand is also a risk. What if after another year he proves to still struggle to keep up from the winter on? Then it makes much more sense for the club to let him go rather than keep him. If he doesn't get used to the winter days and the league in three years, I think he never will. I'd wait and assess it further later if I was the board. There's no rush because there's no one seriously coming. I've never even bought PSG interest. Don't remember if their board or president acknowledged them back then...

All valid points.

Perhaps if the club sign Oscar to a new deal on a marginally better salary that would suit all parties; the player would have more years and the club would have a potentially better player on a relatively small salary. I think waiting could cost the club far more than it would be to just sign him up now. Even if things don't work out I still think Oscar could be moved on for a decent fee.
