It would if Torres and Ba go.
Apparently Eto'o has been passing his experience onto Hazard (see his thread couple off days back) if he can do the same for Lukaku then that can only be good.
Costa, Lukaku and Eto'o would offer us a real balance up front, one in his prime, one young and upcoming and one who's been around the block and won everything.

Agreed.

From the Hazard-Eto'o situation you can see why Eto'o has been Samuel Eto'o for so many years: it's the mentality (besides the obvious and bright skills, of course).

Eto'o has a winner mentality, a great charisma and he is basically Mourinho on a football pitch (that's why they get along so well and that's also the main reason Inter won the Treble: the "Mourinho + Eto'o" factor); I remember watching him in Inter Milan: what he's doing with Hazard he did there as well, especially with young lads (go ask Coutinho, Biabiany or Obi about that).

In Inter, he used to always talk with his teammates, he was positive, always with the smile on the football pitch, and I've never seen him blame or accuse a teammate, not once; obviously, at the time he was still near his prime so he himself banged 40 goals per season, now he can't do that anymore, but I'm still positive that, as you said, an eventual up front made by Costa, Lukaku and Eto'o would be great for Chelsea (and also for Lukaku, who can learn so many things from Samuel).

People probably aren't going to like this but i genuinely think his hat trick against Man United was a fluke, i mean just look at the goals, he got in the right positions no question about that and a lot of football can come down to luck and i think it was just his day.

Fairly decent stop gap (other than missing a couple of sitters as is the Chelsea strikers job the last few seasons it would seem) but i wouldn't keep him around for another season even if we do move on Torres and Ba, i think our whole striking department needs to be re-worked be it through promoting youth players or buying in big names/bright talents

Sam shouldn´t start today, i think. Because he likes big big games, so let´s him play at Monday. He will not have motivation today. Ba is right option for me, he didn´t play for long time, playing against his former club and has stronger in the air than Eto´o B)
