Rapkun 668 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Torres Ba Lukaku Eto'o doesnt really seem like an upgrade to me and this means less play time for our current ST which is even worse especially for Lukaku. Please Mou, sign someone worth being a 4th ST or dont sign anyone at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 no he aint. i dont think that he is way better than torres or ba atm. he wont bring us forward at no means. dont get this transfer if it happens. will be the same as with essien, just because etoo and mou are buddys.I don't think Eto'o will actually massively improve our strike force like Rooney would but what he will offer is a different type of striker we don't have.

Please Mou, sign someone worth being a 4th ST or dont sign anyone at all.you can bet anything and everything u have on us either selling/loaning out BA/torres (i will do a naked dance if its the latter one) if we do buy another striker.

We're not signing anyone before the Old Trafford game. And I actually hope we don't sign Eto'o personally... Too old for the philosophy of the club, and a different sort of CF than what we need. I still hope we sign Rooney, and although I don't like his history (being or having been a Man Utd player) you have to give it to him - he's a great player and the sort of player we need. Great link-up play, an eye for goals, can drop back and collect the ball from the midfield, and good finishing.Despite his history, I'd prefer Rooney over Eto'o any day of the week. And I hope and think we won't sign Eto'o. But then again, I didn't want Willian and that transfer didn't make much sense either (but it's not yet complete though... Here's to hoping it'll never be) so I guess you never know, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willian deal is almost done.and the mods should ban these stupid gifts, they are destroying the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heisenberg 1,824 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Perfect.We are the ones who decide, we are bossing United and Tottenham.It makes perfect sense for me to put pressure on Rooney and United's board by making this offer to Anzhi.First it will hurt Rooney mentally to know he is going nowhere before the match, and secondly after the match it may change United's mind or the managers mind and we'll probably get Rooney if that happen.He cant really says he wasnt wanted here, Mourinho made two bids & will make a third one so if he stays at United its a win-win situation, we get two quality players, we fuck Tottenham and Levy and United will have a problem with their N°10.

meetdoscar 335 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 The signing of Willian(about 31 million pounds) + Eto'o(about 2 million pounds) is greater than the signing of only rooney by miles and will strengthen our squad very effectively in two positions.http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/premier-league/10264473/Chelsea-seal-deal-for-Samuel-Etoo-as-Jose-Mourinho-decides-to-wait-for-Manchester-Uniteds-Wayne-Rooney.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just get rid of Turnbull and Sturridge and Moses probably goes on loan. I just can't understand why we chase Eto'o. There are some great available strikers: Jackson Martinez has a 35 M pounds price tag, Lewandowski would be even cheaper(he'd be a free agent in 2014), we could also have Cardozo under 20 million. Anyone but not Eto'o please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 2,713 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Wait... we're getting Eto'o for 2 million? Why are people against this exactly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediator 2,026 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Excellent piece of business. Eto'o is a stop gap better than Torres and BA. And he won't alter Lukaku's development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone but not Eto'o please.Lewandowski? where have you been in the last few months? he only wants Bayern, he even said few days ago that Jose wanted to get him but he said 'no' to him, Real and United. Not available.If we get Eto'o, for me it says Jose will wait for next summer to either get Rooney, or get Lewandowski, in case Bayern wont push for him. Eto'o is a stopgap option, a good one imo, Matrinez costs 35m and then you wont have the option to get Rooney/Lewandowski - the striker Mou realy wants as it seems.

Toli 977 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Wait... we're getting Eto'o for 2 million? Why are people against this exactly? first of all we dont know if its 2 million. secondly his wages will be high so it will be more than just 2m. and thirdly he ist just a player who doesnt offers anything anymore.

Hutcho 8,443 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 His wages could still be high. But Eto for 2 million is a bargain in terms of a fee. Eto and lukaku looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not availble.I have read that article too: "We spoke to each other briefly and...OK, let's just say we spoke," he told The Sun." I just can't belive anything from Sun. Yes, he is heavily linked with Bayern, but I think Dortmund really don't want to let him go to Bayern, It'd worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
