United in for Eto'o

Mourniho was saying yesterday players will miss a max of 3 or 4 league games.


As for Fergie and Saha sorting out their differences, it's not about that. Saha needs to sort his mental head out and I don't see that happening. He played away at Milan and Roma, before declaring that he didn't feel 100%, hence him missing our key title run in. He doesn't have the balls for a fight, which is a real shame, as he started the season on fire.

a very selfish, me first player which is pretty much the exact opposite of what we have going on at united.

dont want him. if he's unhappy at barcelona he wont be happy here.

He's very self-orientated off the pitch. He truly believes he's Barca's most important player, but hates playing second fiddle to Ronaldinho. Ronaldinho is always seen as the star man, when Eto'o is by far the more consistent and reliable player. It pisses him off that Ronaldinho only turns up to 50% of the training sessions, and gets away with it.

On the pitch, I think he's a real team player. He sets up plenty of goals and works tirelessly off the ball. He's also made for the Premiership and United's style of play would suit him perfectly.

He's got a major ego, but I think we'd get the best out of him. With him in our side, I think we'd be unstoppable. Having said that, I think he'll prove to be a bit too pricey for us.

I know Glenn Roeder is a berk, but he surely would've started Rossi more if he was good enough.

The fact he's doing well in Serie A probably points more to the notion that he's better suited to Italian football than it does of him succeeding here.

I disagree, it points to Roeder being a complete and total £#%&!ing berk and Rossi being good young talent who'll be ready when he returns to the club.

Eto'o would be my first choice purchase this summer. Pace, great finisher, big game player...
However it's not likely is it???....He's staying put or going to Chelski.
We wouldn't stand a chance (financially speaking) if he wanted a move.
Shame.

We're more likely to end up with Jermain bleedin' Defoe.

Hargreaves & Eto'o this summer = defended Championship in my opinion....not to mention a great shout at the Champions League (50th anniversary of Munich & all that)

Yeah, lets get in a proven striker from La Liga!

A sulky bastard who kicks-off because he isn't the big-cheese at his own club is > Ruud > Forlan > Torres


Alright then

To be fair, he plays for an ultra negative side.

Berbatov only has 11 in the prem, yet hes being £#%&!ed over, and he plays in a negative side.

I hate people presuming Rossi will be sold we hes probably the most talented goalscorer at the club.

I know, that was my point. Eto'o'o'o' plays for Barca and still Torres has more


With me yet?

Maybe I should have emboldened the Morientes/Kanote/Forlan triumvirate who are kicking his arse to demonstrate my point

You are aware that Eto'o missed about five months with a cruciate knee injury?

I know, same with Pique. United signed both players as youngsters, beating off some pretty stiff competition to get them, so they obviously believed in them. Both go out on loan, both have a huge impact at their clubs, and people think United's response will be to get them back here and sell them?

Don't get it, personally.

torres averages about one in 4 ..

No I wasn't, when was this

In September, I think. He returned towards the end of February.

Has scored 11 goals in 12 La Liga games this season.

So you know absolutely nothing about world football? Stick to patronising some of the weaker forumistas.
