Just slightly off topic here. I would have created a new topic but I haven't made enough posts to start one.
Anyway, I picked this one up before. It's a statement from Gael Clichey explaining that he didn't mean Adebayor when it was claimed he said he'd only move to us for the money. His statement went as such:
Emmanuel Adebayor's desire to sign for Manchester City was not made with money solely in mind, according to Arsenal defender Gael Clichy, who has moved to clarify a story that arose in the English media last weekend which suggested the contrary.
“I felt really bad about this,†Clichy informed the club's official website. “I am not a player who would talk like this; say a name and talk this way about a friend. I asked the newspaper not to mention any names and unfortunately they did.
“If you read the article you will see that I am not saying any names – 'Ade' or anyone else. That is not the way to do it. If I need to say something I will go out and say it myself.
“Saying big names in a big article like this when I did not say anything, I think it is wrong. I just wanted to clarify this.
“Only Ade knows why he went and we have to live with this. He was a good player for us but now he is gone and I don’t want to talk about him anymore.
"But good luck to him and I will see him on the pitch later this season!â€
By the sound of it 'Gail' aint messin' with our Ade is he?
