Osvaldo has done nothing to deseve his place in Europa league. quags did a lot for us. more than vucinic or giovinco or Osvaldo.
like i said, it doesent matter. Osvaldo just came here, with our midfield totaly out of form (see what that did to Llorente), scored 2-3 goals and im fine with that. he has a lower salary than Vuci/Quag (dont know about Gio salary) and is better (than Quag) when played with Tevez/Gio (didnt see him enough playing with Mirko. they will both leave this summer so it really isnt something to bother about

for the bolded part - NO

Osvaldo adds more to the team then quag, and is the only real llorente sub we have.

He isnt in the most ideal situation considering the lower form and fitness levels of the entire team. But he scored a few times, and puts in alot of work, creating space for others
He will be gone after june anyway.

Not sure I'd agree with that.

I've felt on a few occasions that he hasn't been moving as much as he could/should to try and shift a defence around.

It's one thing for Llorente to be relatively static since he is excellent with his back to goal and can hold off a defender, but Osvaldo is nothing like as good at that, so I think he needs to show a greater willingness to drift from side to side and to try and move in behind the defence to try and drag them back and open a gap between defence and midfield for others to play in.

Different movement required when he was playing with Llorente against Napoli, but I thought he was too static in that game as well.

He's busy tiring them out instead.

Maybe it's just my memory playing tricks on me, but I'm sure there was a time when you actually made interesting posts.

Nowadays you just seen to latch onto a comment or two from someone and endlessly repeat them.
