Hope the lad has a very good game tonight against Pool, not his biggest fan but I'm liking the newly reformed b2b Oscar.

Just when I was praising him/liking him abit at the start of this season and he puts up a gutless performance against Pool....

 

Just hope Conte realises very soon that this guy shouldn't be anywhere near our starting eleven, bench/squad player at best IMO.

Oscar stuck between CM and ACM. He definitely upgrades with Conte but he's not a good match with Matic because both going too forward and going back to deep.

Yeah.... I used to be an Oscar apologetic, but I'm sick of him now.

The problem with Oscar, in my opinion, is that due to being slow and not possessing the ability to beat a man, he would need a range of passing at the level of Fabregas to be worth his spot in the starting lineup. Sure, sometimes he plays a killer pass, but he is far to inconsistent at it. When Mata or Fabregas has played, CFC has shown a tendency to score more, but when we rely on the creativity from the likes of Oscar and Matic then our gameplan is to pressure the other team into mistakes, not to score from our own ability (as a team). 

With Matic and Kante, I think we could afford a player with more flair in front of them. Fabregas is not at his best there, so I dont think he is the answer. We would need a tenacious and creative player who can play as either an advanced CM, or a 10. I honestly cant come up with one that would be a good alternative right now. Perhaps the club couldnt either. I am just tired of CFC for the last few seasons forcing mediocre players on the pitch just because we have no alternatives. I am happy with Costa, Bats, Hazard, Kante, Zouma, Luiz, Azpili, Courtois and possibly Alonso, but the rest are either squad players or just inadequate at the level CFC wants to reach.

He sure was quick to tweet his excitement for a team Brazil call up right after that loss. He wants to emulate Lampard and isn't fit to tie Lamp's shoes. He's better fitted for Serie A.

Not missed today at all I think.

He is probably still enjoying the moment he got the Brazill call up.

Jokes on us because Conte is resting him for Saturday. He'll probably be the first name on the teamsheet, next to Ivanovic of course.

So, still our scapegoat ? 

The hate he and Matic are getting is incredible.

The one game where I think Oscar would have been important - his aggression and work rate - and we start dead beat fabregas because oh his performance midweek against Leicester reserves...

most of the time, there is a reason for that...

Oscar, 25, could leave the club in January, with AC Milan interested in signing the Brazil international. (Talksport)

That would be great news...

Still amazed this mug swindled another season out of us.

What happened to Oscar? Seen a couple CFC players giving him a shout out along with Willian to "stay strong"
