It was too late by then though, everyone knew he would be on his way at the end of the season if someone fronted the cash.
He should have been dropped a lot earlier and then maybe what we saw on sat could have happened here (the good bits)
I don't want to turn this round on Wenger but he is getting annoying where his faith in certain players goes over the line, Adebayor, Almunia, Eboue and to a lesser degree Diaby, Bendtner and Denilson (who still have it all to prove, the other have had ample chances) all seem to play regardless of performance because he doesn't want to be proved wrong but it's having a negative effect on everyone and it will blow up again.
IS THIS THE REAL HARD COLD TRUTH ABOUT ADEBAYOR!?
This idiot has basically fallen out with his previous club at Monaco, Arsenal and Togo.
More stories are coming out now about him, it seems that there were a large number of players at Arsenal who had no time for him.
All he cares about is himself, que that daft ritual of his when he comes on the pitch.
Looks a complete mug.

He was awesome in his 30 goal season and deserved all the singing he got off the back of it. For that reason I wanted him to stay last summer. The irony is I took to him and rated him as I thought his workrate was phenomenal. However his futile efforts last season means he deserves every bit of abuse he gets. He won't be the last player to trying and manufacture a move, but when it doesn't come off and you pull the shirt on again, you do your job and you earn the obscene amount of money you're paid. I'm sure that had he banged another 30 goals in last season and worked hard, he would have won back alot of supporters despite his summer antics.
The fact is we despise him becasue he blatantly put zero effort in for an entire season when supposedly representing the club we love. Players lose form ok, but what he did last year was take our money under false pretences. Compare his performance on Saturday to his one at Old Trafford in the CL last season. The difference tells you all you need to know about the guy. City fans should take note too as once the novelty has warn off at City the true character will surface again.

I agree Frank we shouldnt make excuses for this worthless piece of sh-t.franksav63 wrote: The odd boo, here and there at home games, was heard towards him and that was all.
The crowd were only properly on his back after the CL semi's because he took the piss (no effort or interest in either game)
Prior to those games the crowd still sang his name when he did something worth singing about which was occassional cos the cu-t was shit all season.
Hopefully now he will get what he deserves, 4-6 game ban cos his actions were disgusting.

I Like th cut of his jib...this is from the scum rag...but for a change seems to be on Arsenal's side...............
EMMANUEL ADEBAYOR has a tattoo on his arm saying: Only God can judge me.
Which may suggest to others you are above mere mortal sanction.
This morning the FA, who sometimes confuse themselves with the Almighty, will take a close, judicial look at both incidents involving the Manchester City striker against former club Arsenal at Eastlands on Saturday.
And, yes, a three-match ban looks a suitable punishment - for EACH offence.
That is the boot in Robin van Persie's face and the pitch-length dash to celebrate in front of incensed Arsenal fans, making SIX games in all.
At a time when crowd incitement is very much a talking point, the FA have to be seen to be taking decisive action.
This is no time for a rap across the knuckles with a feather duster.
The only mitigating circumstances the big Togan can plead is whether Van Persie, no shrinking violet himself, may or may not have tried to get his own retaliation in first.
Adebayor's own reaction could not have been more damning, though.
As was the assessment of FA chief executive Ian Watmore, who was at the game.
Watmore said: "I was pretty unimpressed with Adebayor."
You can say what you like about the player being wound up by Arsenal fans and months of frustration being unleashed when he scored the third goal.
This cuts both ways. Gooners, in turn, will point to the huge frustration they also suffered at Adebayor's hands over his closing season at the Emirates.
Trouble-maker and liberty-taker off the pitch, he staged his own, go-slow, work-to-rule on it.
Had he showed half the pace and enthusiasm he committed to Saturday's sprint from one end of the field to the other in an Arsenal shirt last season, there would have been no need for Arsene Wenger to offload him.
But that's Adebayor. When he's not in the mood, he drives you mad. When he is, he looks unplayable.
It's not the problems he causes himself that is the main point.
It's the trouble he causes others by his belief the world revolves around him.
Next Sunday, City go into one of the most eagerly-awaited Manchester derbies for years at Old Trafford.
Even before Saturday's game with Arsenal, they were going to have to do it without the injured Carlos Tevez, Roque Santa Cruz and Robinho.
Now they could well be without Adebayor as well.
Did this not enter his head? Is his self-centredness such that the bigger picture always escapes him?
We didn't exactly see Kolo Toure, an Arsenal player for a considerably longer time, going mental.
Then there's the whole business of City trying to project the right image.
Flush with their Middle East billions and ability to spend £200million in the past 12 months or so, they know they have to tread warily.
This, after all, is an organisation that has prided itself on being a "proper club", a club with a real grass-roots feel about it and one, despite the suffocating presence of neighbours United, that built its own memorable history under Joe Mercer and Malcolm Allison.
They don't want to make the same mistakes as Chelsea. They don't want to be seen as arrogant, uncaring, disrespectful of both new rivals who have been at the top for years and other, less fortunate clubs not blessed with the huge windfall they have stumbled across.
City boss Mark Hughes, despite upsetting David Moyes with his undisguised pursuit of Joleon Lescott, has tried to do his best on this score.
But he is not helped by Adebayor.
After the game, the player said he had learned his lesson.
Yesterday, though, he claimed: "I don't know what I have done wrong to get banned."
I suppose placing stewards, who earn about five bob a game, at risk of serious injury because of his purile behaviour, goes over his enormous head.
Not to mention putting his boot into someone else's. He still doesn't get it.

He's a CLASSLESS CRUNT of the HIGHEST ORDER!...I can well see someone taking him out before we even get to vent our anger on him in April.....he's got it coming...and wholly deserves to be 'damaged'....
