Interesting Adebayor vs Berbatov Stat

[idontgetit]

70 - E.Adebayor has now made the same number of PL apps for Spurs as D.Berbatov (70), but has scored three goals more (30 v 27). Effort.

Assists? Could look this up myself, but it's your thread after all

There was a time people were coming all over Berbatov when Adebayor was at Arsenal . I said at the time they were evenly matched and was ridiculed. Taking my spurs glasses off there's not much in it but understood why I got laughed at , Ade being at Arsenal and all.

15 assists for Berbs
16 for Ade

although I'm not sure how accurate those are

Proof that stats mean nothing. Berbatov was a different league to Adebayor

Not sure I agree, the adebayor this season and the season under Harry was/is great

The Premier League?


Berbs will always be one of my favourites but you have to give Ade credit. He's been extremely effective for us, even with all the shit that's gone on.

I don't think Ade could have ever done a Berbatov at Bolton when we won 4-0 with 10 men.

Different class entirely.

Disagree completely. I would have paid to watch Berbatov as he was so "Tottenham", Ade is a good striker, but no swagger like an on form Berbatov.

 

[Donki]

IMO they are 2 totally different breeds of striker. One powerful and direct, one intelligent and flamboyant. The latter is more the "Spurs Way" but you really can't knock Ade this season.

 

[adamsky]

Not knocking adebayor, just that berbatov was far superior. When he was good for us he made everyone else play better too, his overall impact on the team was far larger

For more pleasing on the eye, that's for sure.

I think Ade is as good maybe even better than Berba in terms of his effectiveness as a striker and what he can bring to the team - Berbatov was on another level in terms of his ability from skillful and eye pleasing point of view though

I would think the change in results since Sherwood brought Adebayor back into the side probably disproves this theory somewhat.

He is now, anyway.

Opinions are like arseholes, everyone has one

in 2006/07 and 07/08 Berbatov got 22 assists (in 5704 mins). Adebayour in 2011/12, 12/13 and 13/14 has 18 (in 5419 mins)

Thats from the PL

Our results have not changed that much, AVB was getting ok results, bar a couple of spankings, but our performances are not that much better either. As I said, think Ade is a good player, by far the best option we have, just Berba was better

Don't mention that saying on here. A certain poster will think you are calling him an arsehole!

 

[yusrisafri]

How can you compare Ade to Berba, who was like samelar hound and face like deer face?
