Samuel Eto'o

Bah!

Chelsea paying £40m for a player that probably won't do as better as Shevchenko tbh

if I was still living in the year 2003, when Roman first came to Chelsea, I'd be shitting my pants over Eto'o coming to Chelsea, not now I'm not. We've already splashed out £15m on a quality striker in Anelka so let's leave it at that. We've only lost Drogba to the African Nations Cup for 2 more weeks anyway.

Barcelona manager Frank Rijkaard has ruled out the possibility of a swap deal for Chelsea forward Didier Drogba with Samuel Eto'o going the other way. However, the Dutch tactician is open to the thought of signing the Ivory Coast star.

The Catalan giants already have a formidable attack studded with the likes of Eto’o, Thierry Henry, Lionel Messi and Ronaldinho. However, along with the Cameroon ace, Brazil star Ronaldinho is also linked with the Blues.

"Eto'o is a player in our team and he performs very well for us," said Rijkaard, whose future at Camp Nou is also being speculated.

"For that reason I don't see a swap deal.

"If Barca have the possibility of signing a player like Drogba we would have to look at it, but we wouldn't do a swap."

Eto'o is a great but very selfish player. Saying that, selfish strikers get a lot of goals. Could he play against Vidic or Gallas? I don't think so.

Just heard on the news that Spanish media are saying we'll be signing him. One of the biggest cunts in the game and one of the most talented players as well

Thats if he doesnt go to prison -headbutted and fractired the face of a journalist, whilst on International duty at the weekend

Amazing player, but a total c**t!! Would not mind us signing him though.....

Definitely. Phenomenal scoring record, but he'd probably get a few suspensions.

What did he say our stewards called him ? 'monkey of shit' or something

Wasn't that the Spanish manager Aragones who said that? Don't think he ever said anything specific about us other than claim racism.

I don't think we would find many better for that position, but would like someone younger and preferably someone who isn't a total c**t

The Spanish dont hide their racism- Lewis hamilton etc and one of the reasons why Eto wants out.

I reckon he'd get 25 -30 a season

Yup i am sure he would. With it looking like are willing to let Drogba, Sheva and Pizarro leave we could be in the market for a couple BIG name strikers and Eto'o would be a fine capture in truth

English papers are picking it up now;

According to The Sun amongst other tabloids, Chelsea are now favourites to land the Barca star as a ₤22million replacement for Didier Drogba, who is on the verge of agreeing terms with AC Milan.

[EskWeston 696]

Eto'o is up for sale. I think there should be no doubt that we should be taking a look at him, i think the only question mark over him is that his recent injuries have taken a toll. His ability is exceptional and should he stay fit long enough would score plenty of goals for us! Could it happen?

[Fulham Broadway 17,299]

AC seem very keen to get him they've told him he can earn a total of €9m-per-season over four years with them, if Barcelona lower their asking price of around €40m ...
