So glad to see Eto'o

Over the years, Samuel Eto'o really has made quite the impression on me.  It is therefore a pleasure not only to finally welcome him to the Premier League, but to see him reunited with a manager who brought out his best quality to the full.

Here's to seeing more of this every weekend this year.

Still, at least the Eto'o and Co. Amateur Dramatics Society will provide some relief from other nauseating focal points of the highlights reels - they just won't be able to squeeze it all in.

We should be grateful, in fact.  With Alan Hansen's sage wisdom finally fading away and the likes of Adebayor and Bale no longer there to grace our screens, smiling in disbelief at their failure to con their way to a free-kick, it was looking like it might just be the Paolo Di Canio Paranoia Extravaganza this year.
