Mr getachew44 I think you are the most idiot no sorry­ Idiot is even a smooth word to qualify you Dumb!I did­ not know that someone can be that DUMB!Eto'o is a­ legend!and bacelona is a racist club!after eto'o­ departure won't even watch a single of their game­ anymore...Come to england Eto'o here the respect­ talent!It'is a real shame tough cuz If you've­ been here with those stats, you would have been golden­ ball at least twice!I hate barcelona

Henry is black like Eto'o. He scores less goal than­ Eto'o. He came to Barca much later than Eto'o.­ He wanted to leave after the disappointing 2007-08­ season. According to Henry, Guardiola personally asked­ him to stay. So how do that make this whole Eto'o­ ordeal an issue about race? You may call Barca greedy.­ But then again, this is a business. You need money to­ run a successful club.

It's such a pitifull thig that etoo would want to­ stay in barca dispite the racist tendency of­ barca's management and the spanish fans of the­ club.Pls my brother Etoo you have won everything for­ them within the last five seasons and the whole world­ know your class.you're one of the best the club has­ ever had and one of the best in the world right now.If­ barca do not want to recognise your value ,it's­ high time you had gone to face new challanges else­ where.My advice is that you move to city where you­ could help to form a good team and start winning more­ trophies.GOD BLESS YOU.

@ boltj89, go get a life and quit copping my name.­ I'm the real boltj89, I'm a Barca fan, you are­ just a racist that hates Barcelona, you are probably a­ madrid fan acting as a Barcelona fan. Why don't you­ take your boring life and killllll it, because it's­ taking up space in this world.

i find it rather unnerving that for someone who is one­ of their best players his wages are lower than Messi,­ Iniesta and Puyol. I also find it bizarre that you are­ wanting to sell your best striker who helped you win­ the treble. For instance the case of C. Ronaldo­ Manchester United did not want to sell him but they­ sold him with reluctance as he wanted to move. Here you­ have a top striker who wants to stay at Barcelona but­ you are trying to force him out. It might be a race­ thing but I would hope it isn't for the sake of­ football.

why barca fans pretend as other club fans.
eto has­ prove he is one of the best striker
eto was the highest­ score of all time in mallorca with 59 goals at age of­ 22
he is the 3rd youngest player to play in world cup­ in 1998 at the age 18
he is twice african cup top­ scorer
every season score more than 25 goals
what do­ you want more?
i'm sick and tierd from racism in­ spain especialy in barcelona.

i have never highlight others comment
but to­ pinkmama2k8 well said
to show how race effect­ alot
barca want to buy zlatan and mascherano in eto and­ tore's place
barcelona were ready to pay 12 million­ euro to zlatan and don't want to pay 8 million to­ eto
barca also offer 9 mil wage to mascherano and­ refuse to pay 5 million to tore
the only reason this­ deal didn't happen is coz inter and liverpool­ reject the bid
after that barca extend to tore and­ offer to eto 6 mil, this is half what zlatan­ gets
greedy and racism will end your club.
and to guy­ who told me barca won the league in 99, i know that­ barca won at that time with van gaal, don't try to­ make me stupid.
i know whole history since the time of­ kubala the hungarian international

Ha ha Eto'o is mad cos he will never be offered­ wages like that again. He is an average player who­ would not get in Man Utd's first team. He is­ offered that money simply because it is the only way­ Man City can attract players. He is afraid of being­ shown up as the average player he is but he should take­ the offer while it is there. Then after one season he­ will be sold cos Man City will realise what a mistake­ they made. Alex Ferguson offered 1 million pounds for­ him and that shows his true worth as a back up striker­ in case we have injuries. Still, that is why Man Utd­ are the World Champions.

It is you who is an idiot, Barca fans are racists

More Eto'o vs Zlatan comparison info.
Zlatan:
As of­ February 2009, Ibrahimović, along with Kaká,­ are the highest salaried football players in the­ world.
Eto'o:
As of June 2009, he is the 4th­ highest goalscorer in Barcelona's history and the­ only member of the current squad to be in the top 10.­ He is one of only two players, along with Raúl­ González, to have scored in two UEFA Champions League­ finals.

The only fact that is outstanding about Zlatan­ over Eto'o is that he is one of the highest paid­ footballers (4th).

Barca Fargots .. oops.Fans!!
Chasing a World Class­ Goal Porcher Like Eto-o means A Lot To You R@$!$2$

To all who are saying that Eto'o is greedy, perhaps­ you need to look beyond the money issue. To me it makes­ no sense that a club would like to sell a player at the­ top of his game and in the prime of his sporting­ career. It disheartens me that there was talk of (or­ still is) selling Eto's to Inter as part of an­ exchange for Ibrahimovic (Eto'o plus several­ million Euros). Is Ibrahimovic really better than­ Eto’o? Eto'o essentially won the champions league­ for Barca - now they want to give him off plus some­ millions of Euros in exchange for a player whose team­ got nowhere in the Champions league. 136 goals in 5­ seasons. To me making these demands for Eto'o is­ the only way or the only tool he has for salvaging his­ dignity, which is being undermined severely by his­ club. I cannot help but think that if they are not­ considering the stats, perhaps they are looking at­ other criteria to value Eto'o and other players­ when comparing them. And in my opinion, that other­ criterion is the color of one’s skin. This sounds­ highly plausible and irrefutable given Spain's­ racism track record. Bananas and monkey chants for your­ own players, no wonder Eto'o wants to be traded off­ when he is performing so well. Don't you think?­ Zlatan vs Eto'o stats:
Zlatan: Age: 27 (October­ 1981). Total career goals: 154.
Eto'o: Age: 28­ (March 1981). Total career goals: 203.
Zlatan:­ International goals: 27 (including 6 U21­ goals).
Eto'o: International goals: 37 (all senior­ team goals).
Zlatan: Last 5 seasons: 92 goals (Inter­ & Juventus).
Eto'o: Last 5 seasons: 103 goals­ (Bracelona).
Again, is Zlatan that much better than­ Eto'o.

The main question is: "Why do they­ (Barca) want to sell Eto'o?"

boltj89, correct your record, Barca won the Liga in­ 1999

boltj89 - so are you saying is that Barca fans are­ generally racist and don't appreciate the massive­ contributions of there non-spanish players, past and­ present?

i have make everything clear
read my comment #175, 176,­ 191 and 194
don't miss the story and facts about­ eto'o and barca with some racism.
boltj89(me) thanx­ all the reader for thumb up
remaimber i have nothing­ against barca, i'm just trying to say painful­ facts.

Sounds greedy to me!

i will put some clear points
i think most of you know­ that but i will put down my point to those doesn't­ know it
from 1999 to 2004 barca won nothing but after­ eto join in 2004 the won 3 league 2 champions league 1­ cup and 2 super cup, 8 titles in 5 years
he become 3rd­ all time top scorer in the club history thanx to 132­ goals he scored in only 5 years
the whole barca's­ history 98 years have won only one CL but in 5 years­ with eto manage to win 2 CL
He scored cruicial goals in­ both CL final which bend the final in barca's­ favoure
if eto was in man united he would be legend­ like giggs
if eto was in milan, he would be like­ maldini and inzagi
if he was in juve he would be like­ del peiro
but unfortunatly he is in a club historicaly­ disrespect their players especialy black players
many­ top black players were in same situation, class players­ like romario rivaldo kluivert and ronaldinho all this­ stars have seen both nice dream and racism nightmare­
here barca fans want to make poor eto look like greedy­ but the fact is, eto refuse the highest salary in­ football which man city offered to him
he want to stay­ in barca and asked only similar payment like xavi­ valdez puyol and messi
hey barcelona plz for the good­ of football end your racism.
