I like what he's done with his hair. Tropical.
 
Gutted Pienaar didn't succeed here. Seemed like an odd purchase at the time in a position we didn't need, but that's not his fault.

The guy is a good player, hard worker, seems likeable, but it just wasn't to be. All the best to him and Everton
 
Adebayor is currently locked in negotiations with Spurs over a return to White Hart Lane, after the club agreed a £5 million fee with City for the striker, who scored 20 goals whilst on loan in north London last season.
However, the deal has stalled over Adebayor's refusal to accept a cut to his current £175,000-a-week wages, which were part subsidised by City last season.
Adebayor is willing to accept Spurs' £100,000-a-week offer, but only if City make up the loss by handing a chunk of the transfer fee directly to him.
However, City boss Mancini is no mood for charity.
Fresh from cancelling the contract of his son Andrea, who has now signed for Real Valladoid, Mancini senior has told Adebayor he can forget about picking up a hefty pay off, and the club will force him to play in the reserves if he fails to find an agreement with Spurs.
It's a tough talking stance that appears to be working, with Adebayor ready to hold further talks with Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas in the next 48 hours, in a bid to find an agreement that works for everybody.
Adebayor, who is also attracting interest from several Russia clubs, is expected to sign a four-year-deal with Spurs.

I'd give him credit for accepting that its not working and returning to a club where he fits in and looks very good. Hopefully we won't be hearing complaints about how badly treated he was, but I don't expect to.

Daniel and AVB are spending a lot of time together in the US & they wont be talking about the weather. Everybody knows what position we are in so i would expect a few things to start happening before Saudi Sportswashing Machine #ibloodyhopeso!!

Im quite sure that wont happen. If they deliberately compromise his career he will have them in court before you know it. Especially if they exclude him from the 25 man squad. And not excluding him is a heavy price to pay, considering they will have 4 competitions to take very seriously this year.
 
It will all work out positively I think, but seriously, do people expect us to just throw down for the last year of Adebayor's contract? that's nearly 10 million right there based on 175k per week. It's not just a couple mill is it? It's between him and City, though I'm sure we will be involved in the compromise...cryptically, the last time agent Phil Smith said there was 'no chance' with Adebayor was with regards to us loaning him last summer!!!
 
Any deal which takes Andy Carroll to West Ham has been scrapped. The player doesn't wish to join the club.
 
Barcelona are reported to be interested in Arsenal's Alex Song for around £11million. Two years left on his contract.
