Eto'o at Everton, lmao. One of the greatest strikers of his generation. I know he's past his best, but I'm buzzing regardless. That's deffo a name to get on the back of your shirt

Andy Gray was supposed to be past his best and we won the cup, league and ECWC with him and Sharpie.

On another level to the Ginola, Gascoigne signings this. He's no crock and his stats still hold up at the very highest level. Samuel Eto'o will be wearing an Everton shirt. MIND BLOWN.

Does this mean we're sending Lukaku out on loan?

Sad,Sad day when this money grabbing tosser pulls on the sacred jersey. He couldn't give a flying f*** if we win or lose. Sure he'll get a couple of tap ins, but his days of pace and sharpness are long long gone. Can't see the point of it. Better off giving Big Dunc a run out

Dunno how many games he wil play but it's another option. Different type of player than Rom so will be interesting to see how he fits in.

Apart for the fact that he clearly could have gotten more money elsewhere, why does it matter what his motives are if he does a job ? He's paid to play football, not to love the club. If you think any of our squad would be here if they weren't on good money you're seriously deluded.

Best backup striker we've had in years.

Ignoring Rom, he's the best striker we've had in years.

We sold Forshaw, with the sell on fee of 50%, and he has just been sold for circa £5m, so we are gaining roughly £2.5m. That's half of Eto'o's contract already.

It is a no brainer signing, a top quality back up.

TBF Saha was world class on his day.

Blimey.

We signed Lukaku and are about to sign Eto'o in the same window.

And still a few complain - wowzers....

A lot is made of his age but we have a winner in Eto.

Someone who has played at the very highest level and even last year he had a good season with Chelsea so if he is coming on with 20/30mins to go to help out Lukaku or replace, he is a WORLD CLASS footballer no matter how old he is.

If we could add Welbeck with Eto and Lukaku, the good times will ROLL!

Neiler · August 25, 2014

Is he really passed it? His goals per mins last season we're pretty good!

9 goals in 16 PL starts last season.

Welbeck is awful though.
