    Could have said Spurs - Keane, Defoe, Kaboul, Chimbonda that's 4 ex spurs players we've signed! Wish we'd made the 5 by bringing Robbo back personally.

    I am not an Adebayor fan. I always thought he missed too many chances at Arsenal. This got the response that he scored a lot of goals. That is true but he should of scored a lot more.
    Spurs are an attacking side, so he might be able to fool some people he is a good player by scoring a goal every two games.

    The problem with Adebayor is he plays for the money and NOTHING else.
    I always felt Arsenal was the best place for him because Wenger just knows how to get the best out of him (as he does with soo many players)

    Chances are he would go to Spurs score a bucket load of goals then leave for a 'bigger european club'.

    Adebayor looks out for Adebayor. I agree that at Arsenal he had everything he needed, great players around him, champions league football, adoration from the fans and a brilliant manager. But effectively he tried to use us as a shop window to pimp himself out to AC Milan ......... and he ended up at City

    Ade said 'Jose is a better manager then Wenger' etc.

    Will he shortly say 'Arry is brilliant?

    I think that attitude covers 99.9% of all professional footballers though not just Adebayor.

    By the way recent Arsenal players Harry Rednapp has signed

    At West Ham -
    Ian Wright
    Omer Riza (!)
    Davor Suker
    Nigel Winterburn
    John Hartson

    At Portsmouth -
    Paul Merson
    Jason Crowe (!)
    Sol Campbell
    Lauren
    Kanu
    Lassana Diarra

    At Spuds -
    David Bentley
    William Gallas
    (Wilson Palacios – never signed for us, but was on trial, & Wenger recommended him to Wigan)

    Arsenal obsessed Arry? We all know he was an Arsenal fan before he became Spurs manager, a fact he currently plays down!

    Harry Redknapp signed Defoe, Keane, Crouch, Kaboul and Chimbonda since taking over, which would make it Spurs 5, Arsenal 1. Again.

    Out of our current squad, Wenger was linked to the following before we signed them: Modric, Bale, Assou Ekotto, Bassong, Kranjcar, Gomes, Dos Santos.

    You could flip that and say Wenger just tracks the players he knows 'Arry is following.

    With one of the best put down's ever.

    Adebayor came on as a sub and said to Bendtner
    "I'm on because you're ****"

    The classic resort of a person who has no argument, insults. Sad really

    And Ensil didn't directly insult you. Just because you're in your mid teens doesn't mean you're a yob. I was about 3 years ago.
