Robinho believes Manchester City will be 'unbeatable' next season if manager Mark Hughes signs Barcelona's £30m-rated striker Samuel Eto'o. Roque Santa Cruz joined Robinho at City yesterday in a £15m move from Blackburn and Carlos Tevez is set to complete a £25m switch from Manchester United on July 1. And the Brazilian wants Hughes to snap up Eto'o and complete the quartet of top-quality strikers at Eastlands.  He told The Sun: 'If Eto'o comes too he will add even more talent to the squad. 'We need four top-quality forwards because the season is so tough in England. 'I hope the club keep signing players with that quality. If so, we will be almost unbeatable.' Robinho says he cannot wait to play alongside Santa Cruz and Tevez and believes Eto'o would be the final piece of the jigsaw. 'A player like Santa Cruz is more than welcome and I've heard a deal for Carlos will be sorted very soon.,' he said. 'That would be great because Tevez is a world-class talent and I would be happy to play alongside him. 'It is very good to know my club is going for top-quality players like these. Now I hope we can get Eto'o as well.' However Robinho has warned the trio he is not to prepared to give up his place in the team. He added: 'They are all talented players but I will work as always to make sure of my spot in the team.'
