Samuel Eto'o

[meetdoscar 335]

Torres was MOTM against Spurs prove what undeserved praise he gets, as well as he played and I said he did play well. He scored ZERO goals; had ZERO assists; received a RED card and loosing the ball lead to Tottenhams goal. He was not fouled he fell wanting a foul and nothing was given which is often the case for Torres because he is soft. He went on to clap at the linesman a bookable offense while Tottenham counter attacked and scored a goal.

Let me remind you how long it took Torres to open his account at CFC - 14 matches.

You'd like to point out that Steaua's right back statistics what about the fact that Mikel has as many goals in the EPL in less minutes that Torres in 2013?

I was about to post something similar. The support for torres is unreal despite proving for 2 seasons and counting that we can't win a league title with him as our lead striker. Unlike torres Eto'o is so so proven so I'd take my chance supporting him now as lead striker I've done that with torres too but now he should be second choice though.

It's too early to make a general assessment of Eto'o, although I agree that so far he's been below par. While I think (would like to think) that he's going to improve I don't see him turn into our super scorer and the man to lead our attack. But who knows, time will tell.

[Sheva. 5,373]

He hasn't played on this level for 2 years. Give this guy some time

Exactly how I feel. It's frustrating but nothing we can do about it now.

I thought he played well against Steaua. Involved in process of some goals.

[Barbara 15,149]

Has there been any news on his NT retirement? I remember reading the L'Equipe article about him saying he wouldn't play international football anymore.

If that's the case I think he can benefit of the extra couple of weeks training to regain his better fitness.

I also think he will play against both Norwich and Cardiff and who knows if Torres will be fit for playing the first match against Schalke... so I think he'll improve with the extra training and another couple of matches.

this is a good chance for him to show he can still deliver ..AND we are going to NEED him.

[The_Flash 1,144]

He really NEEDS TO STEP IT UP. He has even dreadful this season, really think we were a few years to late. We need and deserve far better strikers.

[Hamon 103]

During 2010/2011 season Eto'o delivered 37 goals + 17 assists: nobody did better than that with an italian team in the last 10 years at least.

If only we could have even a 50% of that player, the EPL title of this year would be quietly in Chelsea's pocket.

Jose Mourinho wants Chelsea striker Samuel Eto'o to be given time to settle

[The_Flash 1,144]

Time? From the fans?!

[mac.bo 48]

Mmm time goes fastest in the premiership ,Jose should know this and i believe Et'o will get goals ,i dont think he will get much more than Lukaku come the end of the season hence why do it ? Put it this way after tomorrows game near 20% of the games have gone !

With Etoo aging 32, Jose can ask everything but time.

[The_Flash 1,144]

To have any chance at winning they need to limprove very quickly by January when we could have any change to get someone else it could already be too late

Eto'o has reversed his decision to retire from international football and will play for Cameroon vs Tunisia.

I actually really like etoo movement, out of our three striker I think he has the best movement but he kinda lose that half a step in term of sharpness and pace which made him so deadly

[bushman 2,043]

Well, we all might like Eto´o movement. However, that´s not good enough, in my view.

He was brought in to score, he is paid plenty, but we see nothing, so far.

He has spent 2 years in Russia, where he was just cruising for bruising. Now, he claims he is shocked with English physical type of football. Duh, didn´t he know it before ?

Not a chance he is the weakest
