Samuel Eto'o

[Goemaere 131]

Can't handle the level in my opnion I've been following anzhi since 2011. Madness to give a 7mil salary to a player like him. Dressroom atmosphere will surly become better because of things like that.

Goemaere - if you've followed them can you then tell me if he is still any good?

his technique is good and his finishing skills too. but physically, he isnt at the level of inter/barca days anymore. but also, russian league is shit minus few teams. in the Europa League he wasnt that impressive at all.

Agreed, he also lacks any motivation what so ever. Maybe mou can fire him up for a few weeks but he is no where near his level at inter anymore.

I think this means that Torres can kiss his World Cup spot goodbye. Not going to get anywhere near the amount of games like last season. I was hoping Mourinho would come in and bench him and that's exactly what happened, so that's a positive. Saldado (the penalty taker!) will probably nick his spot.

Wow - I love how this guy is written off already....

See what I don't get is that the Russian league is arguably like the French league, but Hazard can make it and Eto'o (who has won more than Hazard) cannot?

32 is not over the hill - go watch Shearer and Sheringham at 32...

With the right fitness plan and mental preparation - we will have a proven striker in our team. He will help Lukaku develop and hopefully show BA where he left his scoring boots...

Can't we just be excited that we have a new player?

I can tell you haven't seen a single match from him since 2011. Oh boy are you in for a suprise.

Well one of us is.... I'll bookmark your post and remind you after he scores his first hatrick for us

The thing is - ask ANY great player (well rely on a journo) and they all say playing with better team mates, makes you play better!

Plus the vodka is good in Russia and the women even better - I imagine Eto'o was probably scoring off the pitch more than on... That won't happen in London

Have a little faith in Mou, you think he'd bring in a washed up player with our current striker crisis?

Comment on my post after this season, if he scores 2 hattricks and no other goals in 50+ matches it's still a fail. I hope you/him prove(s) me wrong but i doubt it :/

[╫rue Blue 47]

its funny when somebody still saying eto'o still have good finishing too

but you saw the post above

Because when you judge player finishing is really about stats

Or actually Mourinho already showed to us what his B and C plan, if we dont get rooney

Make Willian deal reach agreement

and play schurlle up front , just kidding

Ok - who would YOU have signed that's available, wants to come and is better than Eto'o?

I'm still genuinely quite excited to see Eto in a Chelsea shirt.

[bushman 2,043]

Personally, I am excited to see anybody coming to Chelsea. Whether old, young, short, tall I take them all.

A whopping 64m on six new players is the result of this summer. Who could complain ?

[jonaaibosk 191]

Why do people always piss and moan, about players we sign, before they actually see them play in a Chelsea shirt. I hope Eto'o scores for fun and shuts all the doom and gloomers right up.

Seriously I begin to wonder if some of the posters on here are in a constant state of depression. I've deduced that there's a large proportion of our fans who are wanton malcontents who will live out their lives in a permanent state of anger and frustration

[Shane 2,275]

If his finishing is still there, thats all that matters. Our attacking midfield will put chances on a plate for him.

If we were going to go for a cheap older striker this season though, I would have loved to have seen David Villa in a Chelsea shirt. Classy finisher.

Samuel Eto'o: Chelsea to sign Cameroon striker from Anzhi

Chelsea are set to sign Cameroon striker Samuel Eto'o from Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala on a free transfer.

I guess it's a done deal right?

Its your typical breed of spoilt Chelsea fans that our success has created. God help them if they saw Chris Sutton in a Chelsea shirt!

Never happy unless we will line out something similar to the World XI or with alot of the new posters, The Belgium national team.
