if hes dragging his feet then fuck him off. good player but if eto'o got told to piss off so should ade

Yet on the Eto'o thread you say we should go back in for him? a player who has fooked us about for weeks! I don't get it bob?

if eto wanted to come then yes we should go back. if not move on to the next target. fact is we wanted the player ready for africa on saturday, this is the reason for dropping eto'o and moving for ade so fast. now he seems to be getting cold feet

Eto'o had months to decide. Ade has had 2 days, give the guy a break.

seems too coincidental to me......adebayor "stalls".....etoo given extra time off to find new club??.......mmmmmmmmmmmm.....

Can I just make one point regarding this Adebayor dragging his heels thing. It appeared on one publications website last night, then every other newspaper added that story.

Sound familliar?

"Craig Bellamy goes on strike" was the last time that happened.

Don't read the papers, don't trust the papers on anything. At all. Never. Never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever.

Fair enough fella, I have a feeling the 'cold feet' thing is being over played by the media though, it could easily be he was always going to want to think about it and i can't help thinking it's just a matter of agreeing terms (maybe his agent is a cnut, most are!)

As far as South Africa is concerned we were never going to get them all in for the tour, there are still 2 months of the window left and quite often deals depend on the selling club getting a replacement etc etc.

Would be great to get everything tied up quickly though, i agree there.

I'm not forming my opinion solely on a newspaper article mate.

It appears (with or without reading any articles) that Adebayor is dragging his heels. He was granted a work permit, and looked nailed on, yet he hasn't even had his medical yet!

City wanted this one done as quickly as possible for the pre-season tour of South Africa, if he wasn't draggin his heels it would have been completed by now.

That's why I believe he's looking elsewhere.

out of the 2 i would prefer eto'o but he has to be willing to get his arse in gear and sign. its seems we fucked eto'o off 24 hours into a 48 hour deadline because we were given positive vibes from ade that we could do a deal quickly and before we set off on tour ( we wouldnt have booked a work permit hearing so quickly if we didn't expect him to be signing in time to play on saturday)
i am a little annoyed with the speculation that hes geting cold feet. i really thought it would have been completed yesterday

 

[gariah]

personally i'd be gutted if he doesnt sign as i've already moved him over to us on fifa 09....
























please dont tell me i'll have to come back an explain the definition of the word joke.
