Think of the encounter against Wigan in December, where we got a champion result despite a very un-champion performance by sneaking two goals in the dying embers of the match. The first-half showing at Villa Park was a work of art
The fact that we know Adebayor can be a handful. He can hustle opponents, outmanoeuvre them, make life hell for even Vidic and Ferdinand. He did it at Old Trafford two seasons ago. But on Wednesday night, he was toothless
