The return of Adebayor

The problem there is I think Tevez prefers to be on his own up front. When Ade is in the team, he is the lone striker and Tevez is usually shunted in a wider, more peripheral position where he is less effective and less prolific.

Two quality players in their own rights, but I don't think they compliment each other well at all.

Since the Bolton away 3-3 it looks clear they don't get on. Ever seen them congratulate each other December onwards?

It hasn't helped that Ade hasn't been a regular in the team through suspensions plus the nightmare he had with Togo.
 
Mancini was a forward, he will have noticed Tevez and Ade not working well and I am sure he will have worked on getting the best out of them both.

Ade owes us a decent finish to the season, a fully committed Ade could well be the difference in the race for 4th.
 
Not his biggest fan but he should be brought back in on Monday just cos others wern't up to it last night. It's a form game now. He's a frustrating player as he's either good or bad (or suspended). So lets just hope the right Adebayor turns up.
 
He has alot to answer for last night and infact all our losses this sesion have been his and which ever manager was in charge at that time. Sack Adabayor the jurk!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that was more the case at the start of the season when we went with a three of beller, ade and tevez, recently with the introduction of santa cruz we have gone with more of a central two. Tevez is fantastic at dropping in the space behind the striker and linking play, so for me a striker leading the line should bring the best out of tevez (Although I think he has been incredible up top on his own also)

More potential goals and options for the manager the better
 
ade is a match winner any day of the week.

he has not had the best start for a new club really has he,banned for 3 games celebrating a goal,going to the African nations and nearly killed then gets a 4 match ban for a palm in the face.

class player that really has not had the rub of the green this season what so ever.
 
adebayor and tevez together in a 4-4-2 don't work imo, never has.

but monday i would play them both, we need to win, hopefully they can start gelling and put in some top performances together.

tevez

ade

thats how the two play together and the team id play against wigan

ireland might not be fully fit, barry needs a rest.
 
Tevez and Ade is an awful partnership. Just doesn't work for me and seeing as Tevez is our best player that means Ade will have to wait his turn on the bench.

a partnership takes time to work at and they havent played in that many games together......and certainly not a consistant run of games

Ade is a quality player and a much better option than RSC
