Chelsea signing Oscar hoping for Champions League debut

Chelsea midfielder Oscar hopes to soon taste Champions League action.

The Brazilian, signed from Internacional in the summer, has not yet been named in the starting line-up by Roberto Di Matteo but has three substitute appearances under his belt so far this season.

"It will be a dream come to hear that famous anthem when I am out on the pitch, rather than on television," said the 21-year-old in the Daily Star Sunday.

"I have always wanted to play in the Champions League and who wouldn't want to play for the European champions?

"I am hoping it will not take me long to adapt. There is a multi-national team here with other Brazilians and Latin players, so they will help me through their past experience."
