Samuel Eto'o

Wat Tyler · January 9, 2015

I would start him more personally.

If we can save 80,000k per week I would let him go - no good to us in midfield if he tries to thread the bal through six defenders for a Hollywood through ball -I will scream he does my head in - Eto is not a midfielder!

Hes one of the few in our team that can play the through ball

Don't be daft. 210 starts for United during his career there. 44 appearances in their most successful ever season.

Oh I know, massive credit for United doing that with 10 and a half men on the pitch every game, incredible achievement.

Yeah 9/10 they don't work but when it does then you have a great chance of scoring.

Sounds like he's Serie A bound

Yeah think you're right. He may be a bit of a dissonant chord in the squad I think

Just when has he made a through ball that has split the oppositions defence to create a goal for us?
Eto is a striker an upfront one!

So we are in a relegation scrap and we let one of our best players leave? Crazy.

Dymak · January 9, 2015

Not arsed if he leaves, I think he is crap anyway.

Del · January 9, 2015

Get rid of the crap beaut

Can't even play left wing ffs

Not a fan of him in the hole/number 10/attacking midfield whatever you want to call it. He tries far too much.

His best position is obviously up front, but he's useful down the right. Puts a great ball in.

Being terribly misused at the moment I think.

You could literally make a successful twitter account with that, I'll start it off:

Playing England best young central midfielder out wide - #MartinezLogic

Playing Samuel Eto'o out wide- #MartinezLogic

Playing Steven Naismith as a CAM- #MartinezLogic

Not making a substitute against Southampton- #MartinezLogic

Having no width in the side yet two wingers sat on the bench- #MartinezLogic

Except that's probably his best position???

Don't fancy a bum then? lol

As for Eto'o, I'd simply use him from the bench as an option or fresh legs, as a striker, right up front.
