He's failed to set the Premier League alight since
joining Chelsea from Anzhi Makhachkala over the summer, but Samuel Eto'o
rolled back the years with a timely hat-trick in Sunday's 3-1 win over
Manchester United.
The striker scored his fourth, fifth and sixth league
goals of the season to steal the headlines at Stamford Bridge, with that
victory moving the Blues to within two points of leaders Arsenal at the
top of the Premier League.
Goal's Alec Fenn said: "It wasn't the prettiest hat-trick the 32-year-old has scored in his career, but neither Eto'o nor Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho will care one bit.
"The former Inter man opened the scoring with a deflected, curling strike from the edge of the box in the first half before two predatory finishes put the Blues out of sight inside 50 minutes.
"Mourinho had bemoaned the lack of goals from his strikers in previous weeks, but Eto'o's revival will provide a reassuring boost, particularly in light of Fernando Torres' four-week absence through injury."
