Oscar

Ronaldo "I liked the Oscar in the middle, rather than last week when he played on the right."

Oscar needs to play centrally to get the best out of him. Whether that's as an AM or deeper in CM is another issue but he shouldn't be starting games wide again. It's such a waste of talent restricting him to a wide role.

Mata has shown he can operate as a wide man coming inside. He did it last year and was doing it fine under RDM as well. It's only Benitez that has played him exclusively through the middle.

I want to see Oscar and Hazard being given more chances to play perhaps their best positions as well.

I think Mata is most effective when he's in the middle. Being the best player this season, I wouldn't move him wider.

Does anyone know why Oscar seems to have been stripped of the no.10 in Brazil? I thought that shirt was special and was given to him as a sign of how important he is to the team or something.. but now it has gone to Neymar?? Every Brazil match I have watched recently Oscar has consistently outshone and outperformed Neymar, why have their shirt no.s switched - is it related to football reasons?

Marketing reasons.

Nike wants Neymar wearing the shirt of Ronaldinho,Kaka, and Pele. CBF is happy to oblige.

I think we were all spoiled a bit with how incredible Mata was in his first season and Hazard in his...to the point we expected something similar from Oscar in his first.

I always keep in mind that Mata was coming from La Liga and Eden from Ligue 1...which are better leagues top to bottom than the Brazilian league that Oscar was used to.

He's had a good season and has adjusted well. I think next year he will take off to new heights, especially under the guidance of a long term manager who is interested in player development as opposed to an interim manager who is only trying to pad his résumé for his next job opportunity.
