London: Chelsea Football Club midfielder Oscar heaped praise on manager Jose Mourinho, saying the latter developed his career in the club and helped him evolve as a player.

"I played very briefly under Roberto di Matteo, who I liked. Under Rafa Benitez, I did not play too much, although I do think he was a good manager. But Jose has been the one who has really brought me on and developed my career," Oscar was quoted as saying by adidas on Monday.
