Scores another wonder goal..


Barca apparently have a pre-contract with him in place, scary to even think of the possibility of him alongside Messi & Co.
 
He's obviously talented, but the awful defending makes him look better. Would like to see how he gets on in a top league.
 
Saw him play against S Korea in the Olympics. I know it was only one game but he was very poor in that game :p And had no left foot!! One of my pet hates.
 
I went to one of the Brazil games at the Olympics too and it was a pleasure to watch him.

I do wonder how he'd cope being so lightweight, but Oscar doesn't seem to be struggling too much at Chelsea so far. If we could get him in the Premiership that would be fantastic.

Has Oscar done that well? Seems every match report I've read or heard has said he'd been pretty quiet and ineffective. I know there was the two goals against Juve but even then IIRC the pundits on Sky said he'd been anonymous up till then. (Early days and he's still young before any Chelsea fans weigh in)
 
Robi I'm confused. Are you insinuating it was a clean hit or not? Fwiw I scored 5 on Monday although the game was a friendly okay I didn't use exactly the sane tricks but then I only scuffed the first one but it still went in all the same.
 
Either way Neymar did his usual, a trick where defenders don't care(running towards your own goal is what the defenders want), then he dived and made a huge deal of minor minor contact after he'd given the ball away.

Can't stand the guy, the number of clips where he does a trick out in that corner, then flops to the ground after no contact at all or minor contact, its his MO.

Also Oscar has been mostly gash, he's lightweight and annonymous in most of his games so far, the two goals against Juve were potentially good... still not entirely sure the really good goal didn't take a slight deflection. 20+mil and one really decent performance isn't up to much though. Hazard has only had a couple not great games, Oscar has only had a couple decent games.

Neymar seems to get defenders yellow cards constantly, even with our ref's over here being largely crap, I think most of his dives will get spotted and he'll go one of two ways, become a Suarez, keep diving and just complain all game long rather than play football, or man up, play football and stop diving... if he does the latter he has potential.
