Samuel Eto'o

[MartSlinger]

Eto'o really suits playing through the middle in a 4-3-3 as his hold up play is good and he looks to feed in the wide men.

Something like...

Howard
Coleman Stones Jags Baines
Barry
McCarthy Barkley
Lukaku------Eto'o------Mirallas
​

... could work very well for us, once everyone's fully fit.

That said, I really couldn't justify dropping Naimsith atm.

May as well give us the League, League Cup, FA Cup and Europa.

Think he will come on at HT against Palace and start vs Swansea. He's fantastic, and he's going to outscore £16m 'great buy' Balotelli this season.

What I like about him is he's always smiling, he plays the game with such a positive attitude which is refreshing to see.

They should all be beaming really. Imagine getting paid a wedge to play footy. I'd be grinning like a Cheshire Cat daily

Just love the guy. For somebody who has been around the block, won everything there is to be won, been the world's highest paid footballer and is approaching the 'end' of his career he is a breath of fresh air - love the way he was standing on the side waiting to come on yesterday clapping Lukaku enthusiastically as he was coming off, big smile on his face. His attitude is just spot on, probably why he has won everything, been paid so much, been such a success his whole career. His was excellent when he came on, looked every bit the top striker, created a goal with a subllime pass and is an absolutely perfect fit for Everton. Was made up when we were linked with him, never dreamed we'd get him, and he is showing his class in everything he does. What a bloke.

Great post. Pretty much how I feel.

Loved his attitude, didn't spit the dummy when mcgeady could have passed him the ball but had a shot instead. Great vision and ball to Mirallas for the fourth goal, and great runs to pull defenders away to create space. And he's got really quick feet still. He was able to keep the ball against three Wolfsburg players near the halfway line. Really impressive stuff. He's still as good as he was in his prime.

Where is the Palid Vision?

I am not having it.

Naismith all day, every day.

 

[deipnosophist]

I am very glad Mourinho chose Drogba over Eto'o

 

[DRINGO]

Cant wait to hear his next interview on how he's settling in ! hopefully after the palace game !

 

[polish]

Hat-trick against Palace nailed on.

 

[technojoe]

He is world class, hopefully will be mentoring Rom and improving his game with him. Couldn't ask for a better tutor!

that's a scaringly great first XI.

 

[LostLegend]

Still looked every bit a world class player when he came on.
It's such a great option to be able to bring on one of the most successful footballers in European football as a sub, just in case your £28m striker can't score... oh Everton, how you have grown!
