Caption this photo of Jose Mourinho and Samuel Eto'o.

It’s not like there’s something really special about this photo or a hug but if you got Samuel Eto’o’s “fool” and “puppet” memo few months back, (and then the Thank You remark this week) you would understand why I shared this photo.

It’s their second contact (the first was a handshake) since Samuel left Chelsea. And seeing them smoke peace pipe is so super cool. Mourinho’s tongue though…..

By the way, can we have the Special One and CR7 do this?

Samuel Eto'o has some good words for Mourinho

You can never understand Eto’o. One minute he’s ballistic the other minute he’s something else. Months after he labelled his former boss, Jose Mourinho a “fool” and a “puppet” for making comments regarding his age, the newly-signed Everton striker has thanked the Portuguese Manager for integrating him into the Premier League.
The Cameroonian international told reporters, “The only thing I have to say about Jose Mourinho is to thank him. It’s down to him that I had the opportunity to be accepted and integrated into the Premier League and I want to thank him for that. I’m not particularly concerned that it’s against my [old] team [on Saturday]. The important thing is to integrate into my new team-mates’ way of playing and get ready for that match. If I don’t feature it’s just important to get ready.”

‘I was impressed with his enthusiasm but also by the knowledge of football that Roberto Martinez carries, his vision of football and how he reads football. I still think I can learn a great deal from him here.’

Everton coach, Roberto Martinez wrote, “For someone who has achieved nearly everything, he still has the desire he had at 15 when he went to Spain and showed what he could do. For many reasons he has got a point to prove. We are very excited and I think Everton is the perfect home for him. The fans will make him ready and feel sharp but we have got to be a bit patient with the fitness levels and make sure he is back to his best.’
