Playing career [edit]
Born in Sabadell, Barcelona, Catalonia, Óscar made his professional debuts with local FC Barcelona. From 1992–94 he played five La Liga matches for the back-to-back champions and, after a loan at fellow top-divisioner Albacete Balompié, he returned and was often put to use (with good results) in a variety of offensive roles: during the 1995–96 season he scored 10 league goals – squad's best, even though he only started 11 of his 28 appearances;[1] Barcelona came out empty in silverware, however.
With his role gradually diminishing, Óscar joined Valencia CF for one season, finishing off with Barça neighbours RCD Espanyol (teaming up again with brother Roger, for three seasons) and UE Lleida and retiring in June 2005 at the age of 32. On 7 January 2001, whilst playing for the second club against CD Numancia, he was taken to hospital after swallowing his tongue;[2] in the following summer, he nearly signed for West Ham United, but an eventual deal fell through after a one week's trial and he returned to Espanyol,[3] with whom he never scored more than one goal per season, during four years.
For Spain, Óscar appeared for the nation at the 1996 Summer Olympics, netting twice for the eventual quarterfinalists.
Coaching career [edit]
In late 2009 Óscar joined former Barcelona coach Johan Cruyff's coaching staff in the Catalonia national team, as the Dutch had just been appointed.[4]
On 22 May 2012 he had his first head coach appointment, signing with Israeli team Maccabi Tel Aviv FC.[5] On 22 April 2013 Óscar secured his first league title with Maccabi Tel Aviv FC, bringing an end to a Ten year dry spell at the club.[6]
On 22 May 2013 Oscar resigned from Maccabi Tel Aviv FC, citing personal reasons.[7].

I know what you mean Mark, but The Argus has consistently reported that not only is Gus on the verge of leaving the club, but also that it was an open secret at the club that he would leave this summer anyway. With that in mind, I would be shocked if the club did not sound out potential candidates to replace Poyet - in fact, knowing Bloom and with Gus the way he is, I'd be surprised if a shortlist wasn't continuously maintained!

Just a reminder that Luis Enrique managed Barcelona B then Roma in Serie A, and has played many times for Spain, Real Madrid AND Barcelona. Ticks most of the boxes as Oscar, and some more. I'm not sure about the Cruyff seal of approval though.
