Adebayor (merged)

[Dancini]

SWP is not and will never be a right back.
He just isnt tall enough to deal with any aerial threat in defensive situations. Evra is a bit taller than him and gets taken to the cleaners by tall forwards time and time again. We could get away with it in emergency situations against average sides but it would be murder against anyone decent.
My opinion of course!

In some games, he could do a job there, but if we played him there week after week, coaches would change their tactics to exploit his lack of height.

Evra is an outstanding left back. That undermines your argument

He is very exploitable, didn't Arsenal put Bendtner on him and he scored a goal then SAF put someone on in his place? or was that Chelsea?

gaaah, my memory is failing me.

And there was that game when Trevor Sinclair aerially dominated him. What a fantastic game that was. I have a feeling it was his debut in the English game in fairness. But have that Evra!

That makes no sense whatsoever. If you want up to date info on the Adebayor deal you either scroll through the thread or read the up to date info on the "transfer update" thread made a sticky not clog the board up with shite because your too fucking lazy to do either of the above.

he asked because up to date stuff is hiden under bickering fucking pointless posts like yours you fucking brainless dick head.

CALM DOWN CALM DOWN

I didnt say Evra was a bad FB in fact my point was the opposite for a very good FB he gets exploited on occasion because of his lack of height I would have thought that highlighted the point(it wasnt an argument) but hey opinions are like arseholes - everbodys got one an they aint all the same!

Didn't he mostly play as a full back when he first broke into our first team?

Just had a look around the Gooners forums, a lot seem to think he'll end up staying with Arsenal.............and they're gutted lol.

Evening guys and gals!

not sure what info has been posted about Adebayor, been away all week and haven't had access to the net!!

Latest I have is that the main stumbling blocks over a few personal details have now been sorted and he should undergo a medical this weekend. (I believe reading the papers while away that he had already undergone a medical, he hasn't!) City hope to have him available for the game on Tuesday. Sorry i can't be more specific and will post more if and when i get it.

apologies if this is already public knowledge.
