  • Adebayor back to a fine?

    longtimespur by longtimespur . Feb 11, 2013 10:59 . Permalink

    Reports have surfaced saying that Spurs have fined Ade for being late back from the African Cup of Nations. The reported amount is £160k. That's not even a weeks wages for him! Still he wasn't a week late returning!
    From the little I saw on MOTD he appeared to want to play and had a hand in Bale's second, might even have scored if GB passed t him instead of shooting...lol.

      This is Ade's chance,

      There is a reason why we signed him, IMO last season he was superb and on his day (remember the newcastle game last season?) he is completely unplayable. He has the potential to be our most prolific goal scorer.

      As a bloke I get the impression he's a bit of a wally, his behaviour on leaving the goons and signing for citeh was poor. His 'stamp' on RVP was disgracful, his behaviour at citeh wasn't good, boycotting his national team. I have never had a great opinion of him and still I'm yet to be convinced.

      There is a list of reasons why he should go. But who could we replace him with, who has the same potential?

      COYS!! COA!

      Well the next few games should she where he's at. The two Europa games followed by the Hammers, Woolwich and Pool in quick succession.

      I think there's more to this than meets the eye... AVB said "First he was authorised to come back on Friday" - do you know when any of the other Togo players rejoined their teams? It seems their national team have a whole load of issues which it would take a braver person than me to delve into!

      It's been a stop-start first half of the season for him for loads of reasons, not all his fault; let's see what happens now before judging him.

      His pre-signing shenanigans, form this season, his attitude to his national team and this latest total lack of commitment to the club all demonstrate that the only thing that matters to Adebayor is himself, closely followed by money.

      Don't rate him anyway, he needs 5 chances to get one shot on target only for the keeper to save, can't pass further than 6 yards and is generally unaware of those around him.

      Gid Rid, the guy is a disgrace. And send him the bill for the private jet, cheeky git.

      How on earth he managed to take so long getting back is beyond me. There were reports that Spurs also sent a private jet to get him. Insane IF true.

      It's not as though there aren't regular flights to/from SA - even Ryanair and Easy Jet fly there don't they (well, they fly to Mozambique which is just a short bus ride away)?
