Roberto Carlos : ' Eto'o is selfish'

Former Brazilian International defender Roberto Carlos has branded Chelsea's summer signing Samuel Eto'o as "Selfish"

The two players played together at Real Madrid during the late 1990's, before having a reunion at Russian Premier League side Anzhi Makhachkala in 2011.

Carlos told Globoesporte : "I've known Eto'o since he was 16. He's a good person and I've always liked him, but he always thinks of himself, not the group.

"It's quite confusing and odd when a footballer, instead of playing, is interested in bringing in players who are his friends. He did everything at Anzhi, except play football.

"There were a few small problems in the dressing room with the arrival of Eto'o, which were resolved. His signing had to be explained to several players. Then there came a point when Samuel wanted to interfere in my work. He wanted to control the club, taking my place and that of the coach, Guus Hiddink."
