Adebayor

Is this story got any substance or not? Gazzeto Della Sport reporting it as well. Words would fail me if this were true.

If we really get 32 million for him then we should sell him but buy a quality replacement who we'll be be able to rely on 8)

I remember us being offered 35m each for Henry and Vieira once upon a time and then waiting too long to receive half that amount. If by some miracle we do get 32m for Ade then which of these outcomes will occur:

a) Arsene "We have 5 top quality strikers in Van Persie, Eduardo, Bendtner, Walcott and Vela, so I do not need to bring in anyone else"

b) We use 2m of the 32m to buy a midfielder from France or Africa who once looked promising at an u-18 tournament

c) we use 30m to service the stadium debt as everyone is panicking about the credit crunch and football's impending economic doom

d) all of the above with no 'effin chance of seeing a decent new signing !!

Cynical....you bet !!

If we sold Adebayor for £32M then surely Valencia would increase Villa's asking price from £15M.

I would sell Ade for £32M for Villa and Crouch if they cost £32M combined.

There is no more than the Italian Press reports to go on though, so it might all be made up!!!

I really like Ade but if we get offered that kind of money how can they refuse?? The only way I would accept this is if we bring in Villa. But I bet its all rubbish anyways. :rubchin: :rubchin:

From day one i thought Ade looked a decent player, not the finished article but very promisiong and last season proves he has the potential to keep on improving.

But half way through the season i thought there was a change in his personality.

His comments that "everyone at Arsenal loves me, the fans, players" and now "everyone in my country loves me"

These comments make him sound a prick and unfortunately Arsenal seem to be developing a few players with this kind of attitude.

They first come into the team with a great attitude for the intial 12-18 months and then some seem to think they are wonderful and have made it.

If he wants to go then please fuck off and can AW make sure that when signing a player he has the right attitude.
