Re: Official - Adebayor
guess that will depend on the manager situation, if Tim stays does he feel Adebayor will perform to the standard he is setting now - if a new guy comes in will he fancy him?
also, with one year left on his contract (i believe) we'd probably attempt a renegotiation should we be wanting him to stay - which could prove to be a big stumbling block (wage and length)

for all you know, AVB may have just kept him on the sides to build up that hunger for the game. To be honest during those times when he appeared under AVB he looked half hearted at best.

Re: Official - Adebayor
He might not be the best player on the pitch for most games, although when on form he's certainly up there among our best players. That's not the point I was trying to make though.
He needs to have the confidence to think/know that he is the best player on the pitch.

Re: Official - Adebayor
It's a tricky one. History shows that Adebayor's troughs in form normally swiftly follow a peak and when he is not interested, he is worse than useless.
If we got a decent offer for him in the summer, I am sure that the club would find it tempting, regardless of who the manager is. The problem being that an on form Adebayor is probably the best available striker within our price range.

Re: Official - Adebayor
On the guardian podcast over a month ago they talked about Adebayor and his attitude.
Philippe Auclair got a train back to France with Ade, at the time he was still playing for Arsenal it was the season he scored about 25+ for them, it was early February and Ade told Philippe I'm not bothered if I dont score many more this season as I have already got 20 goals.
That for me is why he's not been a world class player when he should be because he has everything in his locker

Re: Official - Adebayor
he's no spring chicken anymore and he knows its his last chance at making a name for himself
hopefully we'll see an ade wise up to the situation and realizes that he can actually snatch at glory than just remain a mercenary
not too difficult to become a spurs legend these days... fire us into CL and follow up with a man of the tournament next season should do it :-# or have i jinxed it already

Re: Official - Adebayor
I think you are right with this. The money train will come to a stop soon and the only way he can prolong it is an extended run of good form. I don't actually believe it is money that motivates the man any more after hearing that recent interview, or at least it is not his main motivation but it has to be a big factor. As for being a club legend, bang in a couple against Arsenal and slide up to their fans on his knees = statue outside the new ground.

Re: Official - Adebayor
The money/contract argument with Adebayor has always interested me. He would be a rare (unique?) sportsman if he was able to turn his form on or off at will. I suspect that it is more complex than that and that his form suffers when he feels unsettled.

Re: Official - Adebayor
Full respect to Ade to come back from being frozen out and delivering MOM performances almost every match now he deserves all the plaudits he is getting.
Or maybe we should drop him to help Lamela adjust to the league and find some form :ross:

Re: Official - Adebayor
It wouldn't surprise me if that was a load of rubbish and twisted his words, if anything along those lines were ever said at all. I know his form fluctuates and has had a questionable attitude but I don't buy he said that at all....

Re: Official - Adebayor
Adebayor was right to be angry at Dembele for not passing to him. But surely Dembele had every right to try to score that and Adebayor has no right to be shouting like that at Dembele. I am sure Adebayor would have done the same thing in that situation.

Re: Official - Adebayor
I was intially seriously ****ed at Dembele for missing that but looking back, is Ade not at risk of being offside and ruining the chance with where he can receive the ball?
Maybe there's an argument to say Dembele could have played it across straight away, but it's difficult. He gets put through, has players baring down on him, he's under pressure and Ade may well be offside.
I may be wrong but I'm a lot more understanding of Dembele after a couple of days to calm down. I can understand why in a pressure situation it wasn't as easy as it looked.
