Samuel Eto’o wasn’t expecting a lot of action last evening when he was named on the bench ahead of Chelsea’s match against Tottenham, but then was brought into the first team at the last minute after Fernando Torres picked up a late injury.
So, what do you do when you are unprepared? You need something to give you a boost.
Eto’o got his own share of ‘boost’, by sniffing smelling salts, which ironically even gave him incredible bulging eyes.
That seemed to have worked wonders as Chelsea thrashed Tottenham 4-0, with Eto’o even getting his name on the score sheet.
His reaction to the sniff resembles Breaking Bad’s Tuco Salamanca’s reaction when the psychopathic Mexican drug kingpin used Walter White’s blue sky for the first time.
