Samuel Eto'o

[FTY]

This is a bit like when Henrick Larsson joined Barca

.......or when Chelsea bought Shevchenko

It's not like either of those things what.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

No mate Shevchenko was only 29.

It was a reference to how well it turned out

 

[emb]

It's like when Everton signed Samuel Eto'o.

Except we didn't yet. Let's not jinx it.

 

[mezzrow]

We're gonna win the lot.

Nailed. On.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

It's not like either of those things what.

You're right of course it's more like when my grandad went into the old people's home to to visit his uncle and they started spoon feeding him as he sat in the chair while his uncle was in the bog.

Eto'o on Mourinho: "Today, I am 33 years old. And it is not because a fool called me an old man that you must believe it. And you may have noticed that the old man was better than the youngsters."

Sounds like he's got a point to prove to me

He proved it, at Chelsea....Mind you, one of those youngsters was Lukaku

He's collecting a check and proving he can continue to be effective but his best days are far behind him

I know, just making a joke about how Eto'o is even older than Shevchenko was. I think this will turn out okay if we do sign him, just enjoying the knee-jerk in both directions.

 

[when i score we riot]

Exactly how badly will we break the wage structure if this happens?
Gonna be mental, our attack when Barkley is back.

He wont break our wage structure, he will be on less than Lukaku.

 

[AaronTheBlue]

I love Eto'o, NEA.

 

[alpha1]

If we do sign Eto'o I wonder what number he will wear? Surely he out ranks Kone and should have the number 9!
He can wear it for his 2 years here and then pass it on to Lukaku then.

Sort of like Messi's?

 

[when i score we riot]

He wont break our wage structure, he will be on less than Lukaku.

Someone on twitter reporting 55k p/w, that's not too bad.

This is our second player we sign that has played alongside Messi. Nice, as all our other signingds have only played against him.
