... not these inferences from the press. You can get it from the official barcelona website. Samuel Eto'o has discussed his refusal to play against Racing and said "I always serve my team mates" before reminding listeners that he only thinks "about the group and scoring goals ". At an event held in Vilafranca del Pened?s, Samuel Eto'o has offered part of his point of view on his refusal to come on for the last few minutes against Racing. The Cameroonian has said that "I will recover well and once again score a lot of goals, which is all that interests myself and my colleagues". He also said that "if the club asks me to, I will give explanations", in relation to his decision not to play at the Camp Nou. Samuel Eto'o said he feels like "I am in the middle of a war between two people", although he did not specify who he was referring to. "And I am the one who gets all the stick". Continuing his references to one of these people, he said "when he was my boss, he never said hello to me. And now he is in the background criticising me. That's a bad person ". He added that "a bad person is also he who appears in a press conference and says Samuel Eto'o refused to play. What they need to say is that Samuel Eto'o has always trained with his team mates, even injured and having taken knocks." He finished off by saying that "I always serve my team-mates and can go into the changing room with my head held high. I only care about what is said in the changing rooms. What happens outside is for you", in reference to the journalists. As a final thought he said "to find out what happened, you'll have to ask Rijkaard".
