Adebayor (merged)
- Thread starter Ducado
- Start date
You might be right about it being a good move for all concerned, because it was obvious that a rift had developed between Adebayor and the Arsenal fans.
I know you have got some techncially great players, but Adebayor gave you height and power which Eduardo, and Van Persie don't have. Is Bendtner good enough to step into his shoes? A big ask. I think Arsenal will need to buy to replace Adebayor
I agree that Utd are weaker, but Liverpool have strengthened and they finished the season very strongly
Chelsea have a new manager who has to overhaul what is an ageing squad. Hiddink held them together, but it's still fundamentally the same team that Mourinho built, and it needs overhauling.
Going to be a very exciting season. I'd make Liverpool favourites for the title, with Chelsea the weakest of the "top 4".

"He finished third in Arsenal.com's Player of the Season poll last term."
He was voted by the fan's arsenal's third best player according to the official website so how is he wanted out by the arsenal fan's.

Cheers for the warm welcome :) tbh I have no idea who the hell has been voting for him as it certainly isn't any of us lol. As I said he is a quality player, no one disagree's with that. All I would say is we all wanted rid of him when Milan were in for him last season, personally I think he wanted to be the main man and earn the most, one good season went to his head. He is great at holding up the ball and in the air but is one of the most prone players to the offside trap I have ever seen. We need to replace him for sure, how good we are next season now depends on who we bring in.

May I suggest benji has the ideal replacement, alway offside with a huge grin on his mug, scores against the rags and can be yours for peanuts.

Haha, I didn't quite have that reaction but thought that is a really embarrassing nickname for a player. Cringeworthy infact. Not meant as a dig to the Arsenal fans, just think it sounds terrible. Great player though

When I read about Adebayor being prone to the offside trap, straight away I thought he sounds like Benjani just without the smiling!
