Realistically there is not a club on the planet that will pay his wages. He has said he would only leave for clubs like Real Madrid who wouldn't want him anyway . Views on the options

Villa is definitely the obvious one. Benteke will probably go this summer and Adebayor/Sherwood will trust one another.

I could see a deal being worked out for sure and they'll get big money for Benteke so I'm sure they'll throw a few quid at thrashing out some sort of deal for Adebayor.

Is it optimistic to think we could do a deal involved cash + Ade for Benteke? Not sure if Poch would like Benteke though, nor am I sure if Benteke would want to come to us considering how well Kane's been doing.

Loan him to villa, he and benteke would do alot of damage to our rivals, assuming benteke stays. Villa wouldn't pay his wages out right

Get rid asap, fed up of seeing his smug face on facebook, thinking I help pay his wages while he chills all the time.

You would think that a sensible option for our top scorer who is costing us a million pounds every few months would be to actually play him? He doesn't need motivation. He will score or help Harry or another player to score if they play together.
But not even an option in the poll. The hatred for this guy defies logic.

Agreed. That guy playing in his position has been shit as well. A measly 30 goals the loser.

Your defence of a player who has let down every club he's ever played for defies logic.

Kane is not playing in "his position."
Ade will never be be the 1 in 4-5-1. But he and Harry have an unbelievably good track record playing together.

Ade has played as the 1 in a 451 a hell of a lot more than he's been part of a 442. What are you on about?

Might appeal to Tim's ego to have another go with him.
'Ere know who I had in my team, twice, that Emanuel Adebayor.
Fine player when he wants but we've already got more passengers than TFL.

For Spurs? What are you on about?
The reality is Ade scored loads of goals under Harry and Tim as part of a 2 striker partnership.
He scored less under AVB and MoPo as the sole striker.
