Everyone agrees that he shouldn't have worn it. What this thread is, is varying levels of overreaction about it. You appear to be on DEFCOM 5 with your finger on the red button

Im personally not happy about it, ive had loads of texts from mates who are fans of other teams taking the piss. Its a no brainer to me no matter what you have been through! Dont wear the shirt of a rival club, just to be respectful to your own fans that cheers you on every week.

Anyone who gives a fuck what he was wearing whilst talking about nearly dying and the deaths of colleagues really needs to sort out their priorities. I couldn't give a fuck if he turned up wearing a Donald Duck outfit like Elton John in the 70's. If he's representing City then he'll be wearing official City attire, in this situation he's at home being interviewed about a traumatic event that is completely unrelated to City, he can wear whatever he wants to.
Vendetta against Adebayer
This is directed at those posters who don’t recognise or don’t agree with the above.
Play:-
Taking a lot of stick for not trying and yet he has not yet played under Mancini. In fact he has not played since Spurs away and how many tried then. In Hughes’s later games he looked completely pissed off at being asked to play as a long ball target by Hughes despite everyone knowing that he prefers the ball played to feet ahead of him.
Please consider a long list of players who never performed at their best under Hughes and we can start that list with Dunny who before Hughes Joined was POY 4 years running, Petrov, Micah who went from being a nailed on England defender to City joke. What about Lescott who struggled despite being a first name on team sheet at Everton. Add your own players name to that list. He was also carrying an injury for some of those games and like it or not he had the AFN coming up and some players are affected by big tournaments and don’t want to miss out on playing for their country. Lets see how hard our England players are playing in April and May.
Shirt: - I believe that some of the hatred being directed at Ade over the shirt is as a direct result of how he played the last few games under Hughes, in which case see above, if not read on. We don’t know anything about how or why he ended up wearing the shirt. How much flack did Tevez get for the ten pin outing when he was seen at the start of the video wearing a red and white Santa hat despite blue and white being available? He has just seen 3 people he knew well killed yards from him not knowing if he would be the next to die.
Mancini will judge him on how he plays once he is back and that’s good enough for me.
