Samuel Eto'o

Maybe my standards have gone down after suffering with Torres for so long, but i thought he had a pretty decent game, he missed a couple of chances, but a striker reguarly getting in position to miss those chances is something we have longed for ever since Drogba lost his form.

Cliche as it is, to write Eto'o off after just 1 game is just nonsensical. It's just the same as most of us thought Ba will be great for us after a good debut performance against Southampton back in January and look what happened since then. Give it a few games before passing conclusive judgment on him..

Lol at the over-reaction to 1 average game. We bought a 32 year old striker, you must have been very delusional to think he'd come right in and start scoring like RVP.

He can score around 15 goals this season, anything else is a bonus. Other players in the team need to start doing their job and put the ball in the net. 4 goals in 4 games is just, ugh.

Also, people crying we didn't buy a world class striker, but that doesn't guarantee instant impact either. Cavani has scored 2 in 5 for PSG in a weaker league. Yet people are saying he needs time to settle.

His posts are under staff monitoring atm and if we see that he is trolling we'll take action. For the mean time it is very easy to just ignore the posts.

Please, I do not mean to tell you how to run it here. However, sometimes the interpretation of banter & so call racist words gets interpreted wrongly here, at least in my view.

Well we're open to hearing any explanation and any opinion. I don't think anyone of the staff is an unreasonable person. But you have to realize that when the recipient of the banter feels like he is under a racial attack we have to take action by either making it stop or clarifying to him how it was not a racial attack because we can't have that on our forums.

Anyway, let's not get off topic more here. Please feel free to PM me if you wish to discuss this further.

OK I take your word for it. Sorry to bother you with this matter.

played well for me..Still has the killer instinct and reaction speed of the old eto! just a tad bit rusty.....

thanks for that. Amazing vid - despite the very annoying song - that showcases perfectly how useful he was creating/linking up plays, giving key passes, using his body and finishing. I think he looks great in all honesty. Those aren't the kind of mistakes we see Torres making - Torres' issues are technical while Eto'o's issues in this match seemed to be sharpness, if that was caused because of fitness, adapting in a new team, bad luck or a consequence of aging, I don't know, but I'm sure no one else (maybe except Schürrle who may have tied with him) created more chances for us than Eto'o did whether he was finishing, assisting, or giving key-passes. It's progress from Torres x10. I do hope it's not an aging thing because the class, the first touch, the vision and the intelligence are all clearly there. The finishing though I can't justify.
