thought he was in talks with Tottenham last week.
Don't get all the angst here. He is one for the future. No different from the numerous youth talents the club has been stockpiling and sending out on loan, the benefits of which are being seen now
We'll get Eto'o aswell for 6m euros according to Di Marzio.
Finally a striker that can hold the ball and link play
Eto'o, a player well known for holding the ball up and linking play.
The general consensus is that he relied on pace when in his last year at Inter he was one of the most technical and intelligent strikers in football. I guess people forget that
Even if he's half the player now he'll fit our system more than Torres/Lukaku
I wish we tried to sign Martinez from Porto. He would cost about 30m? Something like that. Maybe Eto'o is a stopgap and we are either a) going to sign someone next summer; or b) going to make Lukaku #1 choice.
I don't know. I stopped following Chelsea's logic. They lost me a long time ago.
Eto is a stopgap. We will most likely to back in for Rooney or Lewandowski next summer assuming things go well. Or maybe another striker will rise and hit world-class standards this season. You can never tell...
I never said we are going to get them. All I said was we are going to try. A lot can change over the course of a season as well...
