Oscar

He was out cold after that collision. The hand moving etc is like what boxers or MMA fighters sometimes do when they get knowed out. He was unconscious.

I feel strongly that when someone gets KO'd like that they should NOT be able to continue in the game.

Seems he is fine, and that's great, but one day, someone will not be....

That mostly applies to hockey, American football and other sports with constant physical contact to the head, though.

Funny you should say that. I had actually singled out hockey in my post originally, but then took it out before posting.

What can I say, I'm an Avs fan and an NHL fan in general

Before that collision his movement and pasing were top notch, it has to be said.
Absoultely shocking, how that is not a penalty, a card, or anything for that matter. So If I knock out cold someone like that, and am a goalkeeper, I wouldn't be punished, so I can do it all the time. SHOCKING decision, to say the least. Thank God, he hit him only in the face. Had it been in the side of his head, we'd be fearing for his life now. Get well soon, Oscar!

Couldn't agree more.

He was completely out of it after the collision. He shouldn't have been kept on for both his own health as well as the team's.

How the officials thought the gk did not foul Oscar is beyond me and I guess most ppl.

Oscar not in today's squad. Good to see the club taking concussions seriously!

How does it have anything to do with the collision, when he was on the bench vs Leicester and even went to train in order to be ready to get in the game?

Setbacks maybe? I can only speak from what I know from the NHL but it's common there that players experience setbacks even though they were cleared for contact practice.

Oscar hasn't been called up for Brazil's Copa America squad this summer because of injury. This means this will be his first summer off since 2010.

2011 - U-20 World Cup

2012 - London Summer Olympics

2013 - Confederations Cup

2014 - World Cup

Good news and assuming he stays, it would be interesting to see his performances in the second half of next season.

Damn no Ramires either.

Great for us! With the exception of Luis and Willian, we will practically have a full squad when we start pre-season.

Dunga: "O Oscar teve uma lesão no último treino do Chelsea, e conversamos com Mourinho. A recuperação vai ser um pouco prolongada, e não vai estar nas melhores condições na Copa América".

Google translate: "Oscar had an injury in the last training session with Chelsea, and I talked to Mourinho. The recovery will be somewhat prolonged, and he will not be in the best conditions for the Copa America".
