Why are we comparing him with Gallas? Gallas was a bad loser thats all, this guy is a serial cock.

I am quite certain that of our current 25 man squad, at least 6 or 7 of them are massive pricks. Tbh, I don't expect footballers to be stand up guys these days. Adebayor is a complex guy, a lot of those guys who come from Africa with nothing and then get rich quickly are.

If he could bang in the goals, and provide the likes of Modric and Bale with a marquee signing which will give them the confidence to stay then I am all for it.

The video cut out on me, at what point did he say he nearly joined spurs ?
Near the end, he says something along the lines of "he was dissapointed about the chants but maybe we were just a little angry as he was all set to join us before going to Madrid". Before, he goes on to say that although we sang those chants he would still like to play for us, and is of the opinion he could change our minds on what we sing about him.

If we sign him I will run down the Tottenham High Road, naked, whirling my willy around my head like a lassoo until it makes that sound an aboriginal bullroarer makes

This. I'd also add that whenever i've seen him interviewed, especially when he worked for the bbc during the world cup, he actually came across as being surprisingly intelligent. I think his bad reputation has maybe been exaggerated a bit.

Also, maybe, just maybe, Man City will be looking up after a summer of splurging on players like Kaka, Ibra and Aguero and would let him move to us. Getting in Adebayor and Lukaku would give opposition defences a little more to think about next season.

He is not good enough,why would we want him.

He's not good enough?

And which of our fearful foursome are?

Defoe? Keane? Pav? Crouch?

Surely he's better than each of them?

The guys you know who arn't pricks, in terms of an educated guess, in our squad would be: Gomes, Dawson, all three Croations, Crouch, Bale, Sandro, Palacios and probably Pav. That would be my guess anyway....

I think Adebayor is smart enough to know that our song about him and his immediate family is just to get at him, and whilst we may "hate" him on some level, if he were to sign he knows we'd support him if he got goals. That's the nature of the beast of football. Football fans are fickle as fuck!

The bastard had the last laugh anyway.

I think Crouch is a prick as well to be honest, he just gets away with it because hes a gorky streak of piss. Ekotto comes across ok in interviews, and Ledley is pretty chilled as long as you keep him off the Stella. In general I agree with you though, modern day footballers are pricks.

I don't think we are in a situation where we can pick and choose.

I'd have Fred West up front if he could get 15 a season.

So basically you think King, Gallas, Lennon, Defoe and Huddlestone ARE pricks.

Racist.

And pav gets away with it because he looks well a bit special
