Oscar

Azpilicueta taking a shower for the sake of it? Haha

Is that even Azpi? Thought it was Robin Van Pervert!

Again, too much talk about Mata and not about this young man who is putting the team on his back at times rather than disappearing when it gets tough.

He's skilful but he's got a steel and tenacity that you'd associate with more workmanlike players. The sky is the limit for him.

[Tomo 21,681]

All this bleating on the media about Mata not playing is actually demonstrating a massive lack of respect to this lad.

Atleast with not playing Mata as much we have a capable replacement. Imagine if we were overlooking Kagawa for Welbeck and Young?

Is it a bad thing when your CAM is leading in tackles???

Oscar is such an amazing player. He's like 50 kgs, yet never backs down in challenges and always has his head up in the game. Yesterday, I saw a player that could of easily been demoralized after a few missed passes and having the whole team park the bus, however, he kept fighting through until the last seconds of the game.

Oscar to me is looking like Chelsea captain material (hopefully he improves his English)...

I said that before but i was shown a picture of van persie with a pervert smile. Haha

will continue to be my favourite player.. he does the dirty jobs that you see more in DM/CM but then will give you the vision and passing of CAM.. what a brilliant signing this was.. glad that we sniped this one from Spurs

As much as Oscar has done alright so far, think the media and some of us all have a right to question Mourinho about his decisions. It's not disrespecting Oscar. Only normal for us to question Jose when Mata has not only been the fans' POTY but also the players' POTY last season, been absolutely crucial to us on the pitch for the past 2 seasons and has done more than Oscar up till this point.

If you want to talk about the media and their case on this issue, would say it's absolutely hilarious that for the past 2 seasons, they have hardly ever acknowledge Mata's contribution and performances for us in the public. But now that this has happened, they are wanking all over him.

for his age his maturity is truly astounding . I can't remember us having such a mature young player since Wilkins

Even more impressive if you take into account that his father died in an accident when he was just 3 years old.

He was great, really been very good last few games, really making a difference. That is a nice picture, but Cesar looks very cheery for someone who can't get a game

[yuvala 2,167]

Really stepped it up so far. And it's not only because of the 10# role instead of being a winger.

He's really been our greatest players so far.. better than Hazard who we all expected would be THE player this season.

Keep the faith......Hazard will deliver sooner rather then later.

that's my hope, wish and expectation. I can't wait for it to happen. I'm counting the hours and the days for it to happen. And I think the team needs him on form more than we need any other player. It's a good thing that right now Oscar is on form - as Mata and Hazard aren't - can you imagine if he was also unfit? We would have been in much worse place. So I'm thankful Oscar is doing good as well as André is (although Oscar is more consistent right now if you ask me). But we need either Hazard or Mata (preferably both) to regain their sharpness asap because Oscar still offers little creatively compared to Mata and Hazard on their best.

Completely agree that we need atleast one of Mata or hazard to be in top form for our team to be successful.

Oscar is hardly a number 10 this season. Everytime he plays with Lampard, the formation usually shifts to 4-3-3.

Saturday will be a good test when we face the best (second) midfield in the bpl for Oscar and company.

[yuvala 2,167]

Yea, I know it too.

[meetdoscar 335]

Tottenham is another big test for him. I hope he plays well for the team as usual.

[Jase 43,479]

With van Ginkel out injured for months, Mourinho might well play Oscar in the pivot.

if Marco himself barely featured in the main team, why would Oscar be moved from a position he works well to a position he hasn't played more than 5 matches in his whole life?
