Emmanuel Adebayor

Where did you read that, can you link? Levy never really says anything other than the official site.

I don't think he meant that Levy said it.....

Why not an alternative universe where we are owned by a Bill Gates and no FFP rules? That's the great thing about alternative universes: literally any scenario is possible.

In this universe there is also no appeals process against a compulsory purchase order!

I think they just want more control of this. But there's really a good reason behind it thought that they're not willing to share it out.

I can Actually see this happening. Mourinho knows him well and they can certainly afford his wages and he will want it.

I can actually see this not happening for the very reason you used. Mourinho knows him. He could have signed him when he was at Real but chose not to. Doubt Mourinho would touch him with yours.

It's the Express. They don't need anyone to give them bullshit. They are happy enough to make their own.

Surely that's a good thing?

I'm not sure he'd want to move to another club to essentially play back-up to the back-up that is Loic Remy

I think that's his ideal situation

I think it's the opposite. As much as people want to believe he's a mercenary, he wants to be playing every week - that's been his motivation more than money when looking for a move.

Except for the moves he rejected in January.

He rejected a Qatar move (for money) and accepted W'Ham, but we (the club) cancelled it.

Choosing West Ham ahead of QPR (and whoever else) is a sign of preference and nothing to do with money - at least not on the player's side

The fact that ade only has 1 year left on his contract suggest to me that he will be off even it's only a season long loan with us paying part of his wages

But if he wants to be playing every week then perhaps he shouldn't have turned down loan moves to Stoke, QPR and Palace when he must have known that any playing time he got at Spurs would be absolutely minimal.

I think we've seen enough evidence from Adebayor that he isn't really be bothered about playing every week.

It was posted last year that Chelsea wanted Adebayor but levy wanted too much money for him. Bit silly. Was posted over on COYS and think it made the ITK thread here at the time.

If he wanted to play every week he would have turned up to training and run his arse off.

I read a bit of an interview he did once and he described mourinho as 1 of the best managers because 'he gave him days off'. So yeah I'm not sure he's bothered about playing every week

Do you know that he hasn't?
