Everton fullback Baines: Eto'o stilll has the hunger

Everton fullback Leighton Baines has hailed the arrival of Samuel Eto'o.

The veteran striker struck twice in victory over Burnley on Sunday.

Baines said: "The great thing is that he still looks hungry. He's come in with a really great attitude.

"He works hard and he seems to really enjoy coming in. He loves his training, and he's quite easy to get on with.

"He hasn't come in with any big ego. I don't think he's come here any different to the other clubs he's been at.

"He just wants to be a success, and that's what we're all seeing. He's still a great finisher so he's a really good fit for us."
