The Cameroonian living day to day with the Argentine and has no doubt about who is the new genius of world football.
Samuel Eto'o always plainly says what he thinks, whether in the mixed zone after a party or, as he did yesterday, at a press conference in which it was presented as new ambassador TF1. Web 'freesports.fr' collected statements in which the Cameroonian had no doubts in stating who is number one in the world at the moment, one that deserves, according to him, the Ballon d'.
Beyond the summaries that each weekend are made of the most important leagues in Europe, which often serve to enable journalists to vote for their candidates, Eto'o believes hold the key to choose a fair, the winner "Cristiano is a great player, but Messi is above the whole world at the moment, both in training and in matches. Performs actions and gestures that no one had ever done before when there are people who gets up early to earn 1,000 euros a month. "
Still, Eto'o believes he was tried for his last campaign, "in which he was injured a long time," he said. And acknowledges: "My season was mediocre, although it marked 16 goals in 18 matches." But the Cameroonian is ambitious. That is why we chose to stay rather than accept the offer millions of Uzbekistan: "It would have been good for my image," he confesses to French television. The striker also him. " And that says something only a player who has been alongside the best players in the world can say so outright: "This is the new Maradona. It is a player who makes dream. "
Perhaps part of the blame for his insistence on staying in the club when he was one of those identified to leave last summer outside the Argentine. Either way, and, above all, seen the results, that episode did not affect him for nothing: "I do not regret anything. It would be unfair had time to analyze the level of play for Barca Guardiola: "The current system is not very different from last season with a 4-3-3, but in spirit, is closer to the game developed by the team Cruyff. " And acknowledging that "we are in the highest, but we must be prudent."
