No, early last week he said that there was a 95% chance Adebayor would go abroad. This is because of a couple of reasons.

1. He wants to play for Madrid
2. At that time, Spurs were a long way off regarding finance.

He also told me that chances were slim as Spurs would maybe look to pursue other targets and we would know more later this week.
Now this was over 10 days ago, so maybe things have changed from Madrid's end, Tottenhams end, i am not sure, but Adebayor would come to Spurs, but i get the feeling that the Madrid line needs to be cut off first.

Its very complicated as i get my info second hand and it is more Man City orientated than Spurs, so i take it with a pinch of salt, even though what he has told me over the past 6 weeks, although not groundbreaking has been spot on so far

Well it's spot on so far because as yet Adebayor hasn't signed.

Equally I could say that I've been tellling people Messi won't sign for us and so far I've been spot on too.

Not disputing your info, but it's easier for someone (this is not directed at you) to claim that a player hasn't signed over someone who claims to know a time and date when they will.

We all know how these negotiations work ...

Villa - We'll give you £10M for Hutton & Keane.

Levy - £10M and a Mars bar.

Villa - Ok ... £10M and a Mars bar. It's a deal.

Levy - No wait ... £10M and two Mars bars.

They may have only offered a single party size :) if so Levy has every right to demand 2 :grin:

I think Blue & Yellow was Rossi and POTL has changed it to blue being Adebayor.

The words 'I think' are probably key here.

No point taken, but he did tell me about 4 weeks or so ago, that we would not sign anyone of note before the end of July, and despite my disbelief, he proved to be correct.
