Yep, scored 2 for the development squad recently, and a lot more experienced than the others.
 
Emmanuel Adebayor admits Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas may not be happy with his decision to play in the Africa Cup of Nations.
The Togo striker initially refused to play in the tournament due to a row over team security and unpaid bonuses, but he has since patched things up with his country and will travel to South Africa after Saturday's Premier League game with QPR.
His absence will leave Spurs with Jermain Defoe as their only senior striker, although Villas-Boas has always insisted he would be happy to let Adebayor go.
But the 28-year-old told africatopsports.com on the Togo Football Federation's website: "That is what he said to the press, but not what he said to me."There is a difference between what you say to the press and what you say in private."
Adebayor's initial fears were raised over the possibility of the team being subjected to a similar attack to the one that took place in 2010 in Angola.Three people, including the Togo's assistant coach, were killed when terrorists ambushed the team's coach. Adebayor hid under a seat and survived the attack."In 2010 I wanted to go to the African Nations Cup to win and you saw all that happened, how that turned out. I hope this time will be better for me, for my team-mates, for all of Togo."
 
So he's definitely going, something tells me if we don't buy a striker in this January window we never will- I'm feeling positive however.
 
Was going thru all the Away Days vids from last season and this came up, found it telling:

How much things change, then they cycle back to where they were. The guy has talked some shit on AVB apparently and hasn't been scoring much (that said, a lot of his goals last year were pens and we haven't been awarded a SINGLE FUCKING ONE this season) but keep a mind for how the media likes to shit on Spurs.

Not saying Ade isn't a one-season wonder who once he gets a contract gives up, cause that might be the case, but keep a level head. Interview he gave could've been in another language and translated favorably or quoted misleadingly. The English press hate us and even more so AVB for some fucking reason. If Ade is acting up he'll be dealt with by the club. Available to play vs QPR apparently, that game will give us some idea as to what's going on.

Adebayor blasts 'liar' Villas-Boas over Cup of Nations claims

Emmanuel Adebayor has blasted Tottenham manager Andre-Villas Boas for 'lying' to the media.

The Spurs boss told the press he would be happy for the striker to go to the Africa Cup of Nations with Togo.

But Adebayor disputes this, saying: 'That is what he said to the press but not what he said to me.

'There is a difference between what you say to the press and what you say in private.'
 
Ade Out... Levy Out... AVB OUT!!

I don't believe a word, but I get the hunch that's precisely what the Scum loving Media want to hear Spurs fans saying...

...maybe they can't handle the fact we might, one day soon, become a GENUINE contender... so they'll do everything within their power (and the law) to do whatever they can to upset the apple cart...
I'm not saying the entire British Media is anti-Semitic or anti-Spurs... but they do seem to love revelling in a bit of conflict at THFC!

cuntshits!
 
Not Spurs specifically...but the fact the media only ever liked us when Harry was in charge (it was a weird and dirty feeling), and they never liked AVB, there are no issues for them causing shit for us now AVB is our manager.

Emmanuel Adebayor announced Wednesday Didier Six, the French coach of Togo, it will eventually not participate in the African Cup of Nations to be held in South Africa from 19 January to 10 February. Adebayor appeared yet on the list of 23 selected to compete Hawks released Thursday by the Togolese. But it is precisely this that creates the list malaise: not transmitted by the Six its leaders! Faced with this new episode hardly believable, the former Monaco has decided to throw in the towel. And other players would consider imitating ... - B.Gh.
