Depending on who we get drawn with in the Europa league, I think Eto'o will prove to be a particularly important asset for us in that competition. He's not lost it, and will score goals in the league, but I think he'll be most effective continentally.

Him through the middle flanked by McGeady and Atsu makes a lot of sense in theory. Eto'o and Mcgeady have fairly recent knowledge of playing v Eastern European teams while Atsu was out on loan last season in Holland.

Yeah, Lukaku + Mirallas and Naismith all have European experience too but which trio would you rather start league games with?

Yep. He was most impressive (not necessarily in regards to goals but his all-round play) in the CL last season. He'll be a brilliant asset and option in europe.

You missed his spat with Mourinho last season?

Because he wanted to play more games?

Don't blame him for his so called spat with Mourinho, what he (Mourinho) was caught saying was daft even if he didn't know he was being recorded

Because he called his manager a fool.

He should keep it shut.

This lad is going to be invaluable in Europe, I think that's when he will be most useful. A champions
League place for the winners of the uefa like...

Have we really signed Samuel Eto'o?

Really?

Damn.

Feels like the reputation of the club within the game has grown hugely since Roberto took over. From Anichebe and Jelavic a year ago to Lukaku and Eto'o now. Happy days.

His 'manager' shouldn't question a players age.
He should keep it shut regarding that.

And if you're only going to be negative you should keep it shut too.

Paul Jewell slyly questioning Sam being 33 on Sky (before being asked to 'move on') & waffling about a 2 year deal. Perhaps the kopite gs should have been reminded that Geelaaar is 34 (allegedly).

How bitter was he and Paul Walsh? Seriously why ask the opinion of anyone associated with that filth across the park.
Dowie gave a sensible opinion. Younger than Drogba and brings a wealth of experience to a group of promising youngsters.
