I can only think he wanted to get the keeper sent off. As a Chelsea fan it's galling to watch a Blue do that. At first I'm screaming Penalty and cursing the ref for the yellow card. Then the slo-mo replay and the keeper desperately trying to pull arms back and Oscar stops running and waves a boot the the keeper's arms and brings his legs together. Think, a penalty would of meant sending the keeper off. That could never have been right. Oscar could of gone a bit wider and still had an open goal.
Its infuriating that he thought going down was more important than finishing the chance hopefully Jose has a word.
Awful dive and he should be embarrassed by it. It's good to see that we as fans of Chelsea don't want that type of behaviour because you never get other teams condemning their own players.
Infuriating more because it was easier to score. Very bad dive and I think Jose will be making an example of him. Even if he did score.

Disgusting dive. We'll done blues for condemning this behaviour unlike Reds defending Janujaz and Welbeck, And dippers defending Luis. Maybe if Liverpool and Red Devils see Chelsea fans taking a stand against this, they will learn and follow suit
Apparently Oscar had been suffering from Ashley Young syndrome but the good news is he is expected to make a full recovery.
No idea why he did it. Had it have finished 0-0 that would have costed us. Poor poor form. From the stands it looked a penno but fair play to the ref
Not the smartest move Oscar has made. Hopefully he is still trying to get Joses' boot out of his bum. Good idea if JT and several team mates took him aside and explained the facts of life to him. No place for divers at Chelsea. Looks like he's a quick learner, so confident we have seen his last dive.
Are you STILL trying to pretend the Eto's unnecessary challenge on Suarez wasn't a penalty? Get a ****ing grip.
This was embarassing, particularly after seeing some of the classy stuff he was producing throughpout the game! I shall be watching CTV tomorrow and very much expecting to hear that Jose will be sentencing him to a good few hours on the naughty step!
Really getting fed up with this diving lark and it seems to be getting worse as well. This was all too commonplace in most of the leagues around Europe and endemic in South America but up to not that long ago it was frowned upon in the English game. The English players used to have a word in the ear of any offenders in their own team and along with fan's reaction it seemed to be doing the trick. Unfortunately we seem to be back to a situation where it's now worse than ever. Instead of talking about Oscar's fantastic 35 minute cameo we end up talking about that embarassment !
Jose condemned him so he should recover. Moyes failed to condemn Welbeck saying it was 'incredible' he was booked and therefore perpetuates the culture of diving further
What a plonker!! Thats a terrible dive. Should be ashamed of himself. Would have been far easier to round the keeper and plant it in the net. what a bell end. Shame because he is an awesome player otherwise, I am sure he will think twice about doing that again.
