Eto'o: I joined Chelsea to win title - not golden boot

Samuel Eto'o says he's joined Chelsea to win the Premier League.

The Cameroon legend struck in victory over Liverpool yesterday.

"My priority is not to be top scorer. I'm here to help Chelsea win the Premier League," Eto'o told The Sun.

"We aren't far off the top of the table - so imagine what will happen once the strikers do start scoring.

"Every forward is happy when he's scoring goals. It's our job, it's what we get paid for. I'm not happy if I'm not scoring and, as a competitor, I'm not happy if Fernando or Demba are in the team instead of me.

"But my first job isn't to look after myself but the team.

"I came here only to help my team to be champions. Scoring goals would be the cherry on top.

"Jose always tells us the most important thing is the team."
