Eto'o "El Buen Samaritano"

Auto Golazo 17 November @ 06:45 PM EST
Samuel Eto'o demostro su lado bondadoso. El capitan Camerunes prometio a sus compañeros regalarles un reloj valorizado en 33.000 euros si es clasicafaban al Mundial este sabado pasado. Eto'o tiene la costumbre de hacer cosas buenas no solo para sus compañeros pero tambien por su pais. En el pasado a hecho apuestas con tal que las ganancias vayan a una caridad y hace tres años hizo un trato con Ford en el que la compañia tenia que mandar una ambulancia a un hospital de Camerun con cada gol que hacia sobre su cuota.

Barcelona’s European Success

Joga Bonito Mundo 10 November @ 01:27 PM EST

As a fan of Barcelona I was thinking the other day about the club's rich history as well as their successes in the UEFA Champions League. Barcelona have won the UEFA Champions League three times in their history with two coming in the last four years which is extremely impressive.

It got me thinking; which Champions League winning side was better?

Report Card: Ballon d’Or Nominations

Premiership Talk Blog 19 October @ 09:36 AM EST

With the Ballon d'Or nominations finally releasing this weekend, the headlines have mostly been devoted to the fact that world champions Italy have no representation whatsoever. But why blame the press for paying excessive attention to an irrelevant detail? After all, the award itself is destined to be heading Lionel Messi's way, which means very little is there to be talked about in terms of debating the winner, right?

Injury Report

Joga Bonito Mundo 16 October @ 05:06 PM EST

Liverpool will be without Gerrard and Torres due to injuries.

With the end of the International play it is time to look at injuries sustained by players during international duty. With a Champions League round next week injuries could be crucial for some sides.

Managers hate sending their players to play for their country and rightfully so.

Ibra Burns the Bridge Back to San Siro

Premiership Talk Blog 13 October @ 11:15 AM EST

Sweden striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has become the latest Barcelona star to egotistically pronounce the treble winning club's's dominance over their global rivals. Following Sweden's bitter loss to Denmark this weekend, where the spotlight was stolen away from him thanks to Nicklas Bendtner's scintillating performance for the Danes, Ibrahimovic has taken his frustrations out on former club Inter Milan.

Footy Factor 13 October @ 01:55 AM EST

The race for South Africa is heading down the final stretch and with the end of each round of fixtures comes the inevitable relief of those nations whose qualification has been secured. Notwithstanding the final set of group stage qualifying fixtures to be played later this week, below are the winners and losers if the road to World Cup 2010 ended today:

Still a couple of summer holidays up for grabs

South America (4; top placed in group) – Brazil, Paraguay, Chile, Argentina

With Uruguay and Ecuador breathing down their neck, Maradona's Argentina face a crunch tie in Montevideo in front of 73,000 baying Uruguayans, that will determine if Aguero and Co.

El Barça ha ganado con Ibrahimovic

FutblogMexicano 27 September @ 05:55 PM EST

Zlatan es el delantero perfecto para este Barça. Se sabía que llegaba un futbolista con una calidad técnica inigualable, un auténtico crack, aunque había ciertas dudas de su capacidad goleadora, sobre todo porque Eto'o dejó el listón muy alto, con una efectividad de cara a puerta impresionante.

Is Fernando Torres the best centre forward in the world at the moment?

WDKF | Qualified Football Arm Chair Managers Slash Pundits 23 September @ 06:03 AM EST
Saturday's performance at Upton Park, where Fernando scored two goals giving Liverpool another 3 points, was just another demonstration of how well the Spanish guy's adapted himself to the Premier League. His first goal against West Ham United was wonderful – it reminded me of his first goal in England, in Anfield against Chelsea, more than [. Click to continue reading...

Calcio, Serie A: Eto'o batte cassa. Chiesti 3 milioni al Barça

CitySport...un Mondo nuovo... 22 September @ 07:20 AM EST

Eto'o scatenato e, in questo caso, non parliamo di calcio giocato e di Serie A. Il camerunense mette da parte i sentimenti, da sempre avuti nei confronti del club blaugrana amato per cinque lunghi anni (2004-2009, 108 i gol realizzati), e muove guerra al Barcellona di Laporta per essere stato "scaricato" senza troppi patemi d'animo.

Jose Mourinho: Arrogant or Intelligent?

Premiership Talk Blog 16 September @ 01:37 AM EST

Jose Mourinho has continued his special ways as he announced his Inter Milan starting eleven an entire day before his side's crucial Champions League fixture against Barcelona. The former Chelsea manager was never afraid to pull this stunt during his time in the Premier League, and his latest display raises the question: is the special one arrogant or intelligent?

Quote of the week: Jose Mourinho

Soccer Wrap Up 16 September @ 12:35 AM EST
Jose Mourinho recently left a comment on him saying Eto'o is the best striker in the world, the year before, he said the same about Zlatan Ibrahimovic, now at Barcelona,
"Eto'o is the best attacker in the world," ... "My players are always better. Last year Ibrahimovic was the best forward in the world, now I say Eto'o"
Jose Mourinho
Is this Mourinho being arrogant, or could he be thinking to sept 16th when Inter Milan play Barcelona in the Champions League? Click to continue reading...

Big Signings Start With a Bang

Premiership Talk Blog 15 September @ 08:11 AM EST

While Emmanuel Adebayor's infamous lack of sportsmanship this past weekend has overshadowed Manchester City's emphatic 4-2 victory over his former club Arsenal, it is impossible to overlook the strong impact he has made at the Eastlands already.

Calcio, Champions: Inter contro Barcellona. Eto'o avverte: "Sono i più forti, ci vuole la gara perfetta"

CitySport...un Mondo nuovo... 15 September @ 03:45 AM EST
L'attesa cresce, diventando sempre più spasmodica. Il destino ha voluto così. Inter contro Barcellona, in Champions, mercoledì sera. Eto'o si troverà contro la sua ex squadra, ed Ibra tornerà nel tempio (uno degli stadi più prestigiosi della Serie A) che lo ha adorato quando indossava il nerazzurro in Serie A, dove incontrerà di nuovo un allenatore, Josè Mourinho, che lo ha già dimenticato, "adottando" proprio il camerunense (autore già di fantastici gol).

FC Barcelona, amo y señor de Europa

El Balón Europeo 03 September @ 08:58 PM EST
No hay palabras señores, ya no quedan palabras para describir a este equipo. Los diversos halagos hacia este Barcelona suenan como palabras vacías, insuficientes para narrar la espectacular temporada del club. Un inédito triplete para el equipo y para todo el fútbol español llegó de la mano del fútbol, por que esta noche ha sido justo, por que premió al mejor, al diferente, al que siempre intentó Click to continue reading...

He aquí Ibra

El Balón Europeo 02 September @ 09:47 PM EST
Comenzó la pretemporada con el Inter en Estados Unidos. Estuvo presente en el empate ante el America, aunque el sueco claramente tenía la cabeza en otro sitio. No estaba focalizado, la incertidumbre y la falta de ritmo cambiaron su forma de actuar, hasta su gesticulación. Pero recién cuando cruzó el Atlántico rumbo a su país natal, Ibra pudo sonreír.

Calcio, squadre: L'Inter batte il Monaco e si aggiudica il Trofeo Pirelli. Esordio per Eto'o ma ancora super MIlito

(Monaco-Inter 0-1. Milito)
Ci ha preso gusto e non ha voglia di fermarsi. Dopo aver deciso il derby americano con una doppietta, concede il bis (anzi il tris di gol d'estate) nel Trofeo Pirelli 2009". E' ancora il "Principe", Diego Milito, uno dei grandi acquisti estivi dell'Inter, il protagonista più importante nella gara vinta per uno a zero, a Montecarlo contro il Monaco, una delle squadre di calcio più prestigiose di Francia.

Carta abierta a Samuel Eto’o

FutblogMexicano 28 July @ 09:00 PM EST

Samuel:

Me sabe triste que no podremos verte la próxima temporada pisando el césped del Camp Nou. Ya no podremos disfrutar de tus goles, de ese espíritu de lucha implacable que demuestras en cada jugada, en cada balón en disputa. Has sido el mejor delantero de la liga en los últimos años.

Calcio, Serie A: Eto'o inizia l'avventura con l'Inter. Prime parole per Moratti: "E' una persona di cuore"

CitySport...un Mondo nuovo... 27 July @ 03:48 AM EST
L'avventura di Samuel Eto'o con la società di Massimo Moratti e la Serie A di Calcio è partita ufficialmente. L'attaccante camerunense, arrivato all'Inter nell'ambito dell'operazione che ha portato Ibrahimovic in blaugrana, è sbarcato in questi istanti a Milano.
Nel giorno in cui, a Barcellona, vecchia patria per il colored, si presenta il fuoriclasse svedese, comincia invece da stamani per il bomber una nuova vita, in Italia con la società di Via Durini: "Sono felicissimo di essere finalmente arrivato a Milano", queste le prime parole del centravanti africano, appena arrivato all'aeroporto milanese.

Calcio, squadre: Ibrahimovic è del Barcellona. Mourinho abbraccia Eto'o: "Vale Ibra"

CitySport...un Mondo nuovo... 25 July @ 03:35 AM EST
Ibrahimovic è del Barcellona!. Ora possiamo dirlo con certezza, anche se da parte della società nerazzurra ancora si tace e nonè stato diramato alcun comunicato in merito. Non c'è l'ufficialità , ma l'operazione è andata definitivamente in porto tra le due squadre di calcio. Possiamo dirlo senza paura di smentita soprattutto perchè dal sito ufficiale del Barcellona, nella tarda serata di ieri, è arrivata la conferma (lunedì Zlatan si sottoporrà alle visite mediche ''condizione indispensabile per il suo tesseramento nel club") alle parole espresse nella frenetica giornata di ieri dal Dg dei catalani, Oliver: "E' tutto a posto, Ibrahimovic è un giocatore del Barcellona".

Eto’o to Inter?!?!

Despite scoring a multitude of important goals, Eto'o is on his way out of Barcelona

 Everyday in High School, I would come in early to discuss football with my friend Ron. On a particularly slow day in the footballing world, Ron declared "There is no loyalty in soccer!" A statement that was quickly becoming fact rather than opinion.

Calcio, squadre: Inter ed Eto'o, ci siamo. Un affare da 57 milioni

CitySport...un Mondo nuovo... 23 July @ 05:28 AM EST
Manca poco e tutto sarà concluso tra le due squadre di calcio. Una trattativa estenuante, ma che sta per arrivare al suo epilogo. Essenzialmente, sono rimasti due gli scogli da superare per realizzare l'obiettivo che manderebbe in porto tutta l'operazione di mercato: ovvero che l'Inter metta sotto contratto per i prossimi 5 anni Samuel Eto'o, pedina fondamentale di scambio nella trattativa che porterebbe Ibrahimovic al Barcellona.

Adebayor is doing the right thing

White Hart Pain 21 July @ 08:10 AM EST

I'll start by saying I'm not Emmanuel Adebayor's biggest fan. He's arrogant and while very talented at times, is lazy and inconsistent in equal measures. That said, I think he's made the right move leaving Arsenal for Manchester City. I know the majority of fans think it's just about the money but I don't believe that to be the case.

Ibra Almost A Blaugrana... Still A Douche!

Part-time Pundit 20 July @ 04:26 PM EST



If late night media reports are to be believed, as I type this Samuel Eto'o is most likely being relieved of his post at the Camp Nou and being replaced by none other than that long haired half-bred douche... Zlatan 'F**k Im Good' Ibrahimovic!
The only thing that remains is for the club to reach an agreement with the player.

La situación de Samuel Eto'o se pone cada día más difícil para el Barcelona.
