You’d assume no-one could be as confident ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League game at Stamford Bridge as Jose Mourinho but you’d assume wrong because Samuel Eto’o is every bit as certain of a win.
Not only does the Inter striker think the pressure on us will work in their favour but he also sees them winning the Champions League altogether, insisting “Chelsea are the favourites and the pressure is on them. Every minute that passes without a goal on Tuesday will add to that pressure. They will feel the tension. That doesn’t mean we will be defensive. That would be a grave error. We will attack them from the start and if we win this game then I believe we will go on to win the Champions League.”
That’s what he told The Sun anyway and as for what he told Drogba, Eto’o says “I have told Didier Drogba that we will create big problems for Chelsea and that they will have to produce their best performance of the season to beat us. I was annoyed when I saw the draw because I hoped this match would have been the final at the Bernabeu in May, but we don’t fear Chelsea. We need to repeat the level we showed in the San Siro over the 90-minutes. The match is in our hands and if we stick to our usual style we will not be eliminated. I think this is a game where there will be goals – and we are determined to prevail.”
Bring it on.
