Leighton Baines adamant Samuel Eto'o can still perform at the highest level

Samuel Eto'o is tipped to shine at Everton by Toffees stalwart Leighton Baines.

Everton left-back Leighton Baines believes that new striker Samuel Eto'o still has what it takes to make an impact in the Premier League after making a good start to life on Merseyside.

The 33-year-old scored on his debut against his former club Chelsea last week, and Baines is adamant that there is more to come from the former Cameroon international.

"From his first training session he looked sharp. I know it sounds stupid but even the way he passes the ball is done properly," Baines told The Mirror.

"He moves in the right way. It sounds like small things but he just looks a good footballer and he can't half finish as well. He'll always have that goal-scoring instinct.

"His movement will always be good. We've seen bits of it so far in training and then against Chelsea that he can make an impact."

Everton's next Premier League outing is away to West Bromich Albion in 10 days' time.
