“60 MILLION? THAT’S RIDICULOUS!”
60 mil for oscar is madness
— Bill Smith (@_billsmith) December 23, 2016
I wouldn't pay £60 for Oscar, let alone £60 million. The world has officially gone mad.
— Nice Gary (@DannySenior) December 23, 2016
£60 million for Oscar is fucking outrageous. None of the Chinese clubs want Fellaini no?
— Josh Delooze (@JoshDelooze) December 23, 2016
Football is one crazy fucking game oscar for 60 million is the biggest hack ever and that's factsxfacts

“It’s a career suicide!”
No player at that age will want to go play football in China. #Chelsea #Oscar.

Oscar this is probably the worst move for your international career
— shaq (@sxxrawlins) December 23, 2016
Glad to see another young player throwing their career away for the money!! But suppose you can't reject £60m for a disappointment!! #oscar
— Shaun Rumball (@ShaunRumball93) December 23, 2016
Texeira and Oscar surrendered their Brazil career for China lmao
— Conte Style (@Pranav_CFC) December 23, 2016
Oscar will earn 20M per year.. tbh he made the right decision imo. That money > every chance he has to help his career.
— Barça Lens (@BarcaLens) December 23, 2016
Really gutted that Oscar has decided to go to China, not against him leaving because he doesn't play, but he's throwing his career away
— Hashim Rasheed (@ShimShamRasheed) December 23, 2016
Oscar just ended his career by himself, Serie A was probably the best league for him, considering his age & abilities. Too young for China.
— NBK (@SimplyMessi10) December 23, 2016
Damn RIP Oscar's Chelsea career
— Andrew Yozzo (@AYozzo10) December 23, 2016
Oscar is too young for China. La Liga or Bundesliga was a better destination for him. He has just ended his career by himself
— Russell (@FutbolRusseII) December 23, 2016
Let’s blame Mourinho, shall we?
Oscar looked like he had potential, constantly holding his own alongside Hazard and Mata. Mourinho happened.
— Dami (@TheChelseaWay) December 23, 2016
Safe to say Mourinho ruined Oscar's career. Got the worst manager for him unfortunately to develop himself even more
— Conte Style (@Pranav_CFC) December 23, 2016
Actually didn't mind Oscar when RDM and Rafa were in charge. Mourinho ruined him. Nothing better than Mata-Oscar-Hazard either
— Luke (@DLP_Luke) December 23, 2016
Oscar did have crazy potential to be fair, he looked great in his first season. Mourinho came in to suck everyone's talent out of them.
— Charlie (@CharlieAlloway) December 23, 2016
Mourinho ruined Oscar just like he was in the process of ruining Eden Hazard. Ruined Joe Cole. Ruined Mata. Anyone with any flair he ruins.
— Eoin Walker (@eoin_walker) December 23, 2016
Mourinho destroyed Oscar's career by breaking up MaZaCar. Dude has ruined so many lives it's just sad.
— Mwiti (@McMwiti) December 23, 2016
Mourinho destroyed Oscar the fucking boring Portuguese bus driver
— Magic Conte! (@EliteConte) December 23, 2016
Remember Mazacar? Oscar showed potential under Di Matteo. Potential that died the moment Mourinho returned. Cancerous manager
