Talk about making people eat their words. Ermmm, It seems groundnut business in Samuel Eto'o's village is really dwindling and the 32 year-old striker can't save it.

Sometime 2004, when the going was really good in Barcelona, the most decorated African player of all time made a quote during one of the unending rows between Barcelona and Chelsea.

"I'd rather sell groundnuts in my village than to play for a pathetic team like Chelsea."

Well, he penned a one year deal with the "pathetic" club two days ago.

Best of luck Eto'o.
