I think Fl! is a arsenal supporter, like he was trying a reverse psychology thing. Well it work eh padna!

Maybe I could borrow it...
" Michael Owen gone thru, he have no first touch, lose his pace and cah hit the ball with any kind of power. He should join Robbie Fowler at Cardiff cause he HAVE NO RIGHT NEAR A PREMIERSHIP TEAM -IMHO!! ""

U think that will work or I have to start a whole new thread?

What if Adebayor was a Trini?

My guess is that the common sentiment on the board would be that he's the best striker in the EPL... Just a guess.

real madness · « **Reply #106 on:** January 30, 2008, 09:12:21 AM »

when this thread was started I didn't bother to read it because the topic name was dumb...adebayor is not a great player yet but he is definitely good enough to play in the premiership...for men who claim to watch and know plenty football to say he is lame have me wondering about what they think when they watch some of our national players....these ppl should start a thread..trini players have no right near a football

i always thought a forward main objective was to score goals but i guess i was wrong...some ppl opinions on adebayor might be different if he was ah trini $:-\$

edit..kicker i see u beat me to the trini comment.

I would certainly pick an EPL striker who has 20 goals over one who has 5- IMHO

Papasmurf · « **Reply #108 on:** January 30, 2008, 10:16:15 AM »

I must admit, I didnt rate him when Henry was there. But the man has been a revelation this season. Seems like Fabregas feels the same way.

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=503431&cc=5901

Fabregas: Abebayor one of best in world

Cesc Fabregas believes Emmanuel Adebayor has grown into 'one of the best strikers in the world' - and admits Arsenal could not 'live without him' right now.

Togo's loss in failing to secure qualification for the African Nations Cup has certainly proved the Gunners' gain, as in-form Adebayor took his tally to 19 for the season with a first-half strike in the 3-0 win over Newcastle at Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night.

It was a result which lifted Arsenal back to the top of the Barclays Premier League over Manchester United, who host Portsmouth this evening, and ensured their would be no hangover from last week's Carling Cup semi-final defeat to arch-rivals Tottenham.

Adebayor, 23, has now netted an impressive nine goals in his last seven appearances, scoring the opener in three successive league games.

Manager Arsene Wenger hailed the 6ft 4in African as a 'dream striker', who continues to go from 'strength to strength'.

Midfielder Fabregas believes there are few around to match him, as understandably comparisons with the likes of Chelsea's Ivory Coast frontman Didier Drogba begin to be drawn.

'Emmanuel is one of the best in the world, without any doubt,' Fabregas declared.

'You can not fault him in any way. He works, he defends, he chases the centre-backs, he goes behind, he can play to feet, he has a good first touch and a good technique.

'He has improved amazingly and for us I don't think we could live without Adebayor right now.'

Adebayor - signed from Monaco during January 2006 - is certainly repaying the faith showed in him by Wenger following the summer sale of talisman Thierry Henry to Barcelona, and on current form he looks set to smash the 30-goal barrier sooner rather than later.

Fabregas is glad to see how quickly his team-mate has become the 'idol of the club'.

'You have to have the capacity to learn, to be patient. He was when Thierry was here. Now he has the chance and he has taken it,' said the midfielder.

'That's what a big player does. Sometimes players they have the chance and they don't take it. He took it, he is playing very well, is improving every day and now he is the idol of the club.'

Fabregas was also on the scoresheet on Tuesday night, netting Arsenal's third with 10 minutes left.

His midfielder partner Mathieu Flamini capped another impressive display with a stunning 25-yard effort.

Flamini, who almost left the club in the summer, has been a revelation this season, and is in talks about extending his contract, which runs out at the end of the campaign.

Fabregas hopes the 23-year-old Frenchman will remain part of an exciting young side.

'Mathieu has been amazing all season,' said Fabregas. 'He is hyperactive, on the pitch, outside the pitch.

'He has so much passion for the game. He enjoys it and he hates losing.

'I don't know how he does it but he has so much power. With his encouragement we play better.'

Fabregas added: 'He is a very big player for us and has improved a lot.

'Mathieu has stepped up this year as have Adebayor and Gael [Clichy] and all these kind of players. We need them so badly.'

took him a lil bit to settle
some times his touch as a tad rapist like, but the man stays back and works on his faults, true sign of a champion, alot of thierry's hunger for prefection rubbed off on our young squad

also his work rate it tremendous, up and down the pitch all over defending fron the front tracking back total team player

Mr. Adebayor has obviously been inspired to rise to my stinging criticism of him and prove that he is worthy of being a premiership and Arsenal striker, contrary to MHO and the title of this thread. Much like Stern rising to the occasion to prove the naysayers wrong in our 2006 qualification.

But on a more serious note, Adebayor has been scoring, scoring consistently and scoring in big games, all of the criticisms I levelled at him at the start of this season. My comments were based in part on his performances in the past few seasons and his poor chance to conversion rate at the start of the season. But he has improved in all those aspects of his game, much to my chagrin.

Even Arsene Wenger has been suprised at how quickly he's developed since Henry's departure, with respect to the amount of goals he has scored, though he now acknowledges he is a complete striker.

"He’s a guy who made mistakes at the start of his career, and has realised here that there’s another life rather than being easy"

"When he realised that he could live in the big world of top-class football players it changed him, and today he’s a different animal, mainly mentally. He realised he wasted some time and it was time for him to be serious.”

http://www.arsenal.com/article.asp?thisNav=News&article=487112&lid=NewsHeadline&Title=Wenger+-+Adebayor+is+best+in+Premier+League

I still personally loathe him as an arrogant individual, but can no longer deny that he has proven himself as capable of filling the void left by Henry.

I don't see anything in that article or any other article for that matter saying that Wenger is suprised. Wenger feels he WASTED some time implying he could of improved quicker than expected. At the same time Wenger would of expected him to become good, I doubt Wenger will buy and out-and-out Striker to have medicore strike-rate (which he has never had) or be as rubbish as you made him out to be

''...He realised he wasted some time and it was time for him to be serious.”
Seems as if you trying to find a way which makes it look like Wenger was supporting your claims

Anyway many indivdiuals regardless of their chosen sport are arrogant during the game but different off the playing arena.

Good you realise you were wrong. That thread title and first post still makes me laugh though

Anyway moving on

ADEBAYOOOOOOOOOOOR! ADEBAYOOOOOOOOOOOR! GIVE HIM THE BALL AND ADE WILL SCORE!
