The question is ; should we sell him? Yes, he can be infuriatingly lazy and yes he is greedy, stupid and badly advised but last season he scored 16 in 30 starts, what was seen as a poor season for him. It is widely thought that a goal ratio of 1:2
Adebayor was unhappy at Arsenal last season and had to go so we can move on and strengthen other areas of the squad. I expect the money to be reinvested, the coming season will be vital, probably the most important of Wenger's Arsenal career to date
Adebayor has had a stop start season due to injuries and a new midfield that had been starved of its creativity for periods throughout the season, even with those two facts his goal return wasn't too shabby
For a striker who many say cannot finish you have to take a look at his 62 goals in 142 games and admire a strike rate of just over a goal in every two games
My business proposal is based on his "intentions" to lift Arsenal and provide the needed money for Wenger to strengthen the team
Do not underestimate the loss of Eduardo da Silva and in my opinion more importantly Tomas Rosicky for pretty much a full season. Both players were expected to return early last season and play a significant role in our campaign
Infact I must admit I feel much better after reading the John Terry hits out at Abramovich over the Manchester City bid stories in the tabloids
Melo was set to walk out the doors with Arsene Wenger but just then a fully armoured white and black striped car skidded around the corner. In came the big men with a gold briefcase with £18 million pounds cash inside
The Melo story continues with sporting director Pantaleo Corvino saying that Arsene Wenger would like to speak to him regarding the Emmanuel Eboue exchange for the Brazilian midfielder
I cannot tell you how happy I am about that. The rumours are boring me to tears, I have already had enough of this Melo situation. I wish these things could be done behind the scenes as our club would want it to be. Instead we have it shoved in our faces
