Sure he made mistakes, but he cant possibly be the cause of all that happened
Like it or not, he was. The fans genuinely loved the guy when he was banging them in as we thought we'd found a goalscorer that would Henry's boots. But he went ahead and ruined it by trying to get other, bigger (admittedly) clubs to try and sign him.
That's a cardinal sin for any footballer to commit.
In the end he wasn't sold because of his bad form - we're not really known as a club that sells for that reason - but for his poor attitude and relationships with other players and the fans.

Anyway, Adebayor probably matured for Madrid. He knew that he had to behave if he was to have any chance of staying.
Immense maturity. What a joy he is to have on the pitch. England's loss that they rue to this day, I'm sure.
Dude, seriously.
Seriously.
You know, you guys all collectively accuse Madrid fans of trolling etc. but this is your contribution so far to the thread (mainly Barca fans):
1. HAHAHAAH! MADRID PLAYER IS A HOMO! LOL
2. HUHUHUHUH NEG REP NEG REP
3. OH NO ! LOOK! MADRID PLAYERS WERE RUDE!!!! Get the whole Classico Spiel going again
4. OH NO! MADRID FANS ARE HOMOPHOBES!
5. THIS IS NOT EVIDENCE THAT ADEBAYOR IS NICE --> ergo: CR IS ARROGANT!!!!!1!
6. LOL! RACIST JOKES ABOUT ADEBAYOR.
Go ruin someone else's thread please.
It is a genuine question Nick poses, because it is interesting that Adebayor's behaviour changed that much.

Re: What did you do to Adebayor?
He was a good footballer once upon a time. His attitude ruined him although I guess the years have sobered him up a bit.
In this board you will find much hate because of all the Arsenal fans, with due reason as they have already explained. The rest, well, he's a meh footballer nowadays. We chose Bendtner ahead of him... end of story.

Re: What did you do to Adebayor?
Yeah, what goonerjay says makes good sense to me.
I mean, Wenger is willing to let Denilson do very little (no offence) and he hasnt been let go, Bendtner you could level that at too and still Wenger seems content in letting him stick around, Ade was carted off not because of just his place but clearly his attitude too.
Ade and Bendtner were on non speaking terms weren't they? Didnt he also reportedly get into a fight or some kind with Kolo Toure?

Number 1 was a joke, there was no need for guys to get sand in their vagina about it.
Number 2 was via the fact that someone was sad enough to neg rep a joke.
Why you guys so defensive about nothing? Nick seems cool with it..he didnt mind the harmless joke.

No one mentioned race or sexuality..

I didn't say he was arrogant, just making an observation. Someone said CR wasn't arrogant as portrayed by the media because they haven't personally met him, yet they judge adebayor off a one minute clip in the locker room

Where?

To be fair, he was quoting a Youtube comment. But it's not something that should really be quoted, if you catch my drift

I can't remember if he had a problem with Toure, but he and Bendtner had a bad relationship. I think they nearly came to blows on the pitch once. Not sure why - probably just a clash or two massive egos and arrogant persoanlities - but yeah, it was a pretty bad relationship.
Perhaps non-surprinslgy though, Adebayor was and still is on very good terms with the African players at the club. I think there was once this African "clique" in the dressing room, which seemingly disbanded when Adebayor and Toure left.
Ultimately, once you've sullied your relationship with the fans, you're days are numbered bar a miraculous recovery of Emmanuel Eboue proportions.

Re: What did you do to Adebayor?
Okay, fine.
I agree it is grey area indeed, but still unnecessary imo.
Anyway, I agree that his behaviour in the Classico wasn't the biggest sign of maturity, but I meant more that he learned to handle authority better etc.
He trained hard, he worked hard, during his time at Madrid.

Sorry about posting off topic again, I just don't want to come off as racist when there was no offense intended at all.

Re: What did you do to Adebayor?
How can people say he "matured" and "changed" when he was at Madrid for about four months? It was all rosy and peachy when he moved to City, too. Then the honeymoon was over and before you knew it, he was starting pit fights with Toure and Tevez and Kompany and slacking off
Had he stayed longer at Real, you would've all seen the real side of Mr Ade

Re: What did you do to Adebayor?
He seems to be getting quite a few offers from pretty decent clubs that are pretty much set to let him start every game and he keeps turning them down. Plus the crap he has done before and how lazy hes work rate has been some times with City and Arsenal, I have absolutely no reason to feel bad for the guy
He should of accepted the PSG offer since they seem to be building a nice squad. Instead he might end up riding out the bench next season

PSG didnt make a concrete offer for him, we have Hoarau already, no need to double down on a big man imo, specially at his wages

Re: What did you do to Adebayor?
i will admit that im drunk atm so i might not be making much sense
and i won't bother reading the previous 3 pages posts but
i think the reason adebayor has such negatove reputation cause he is black,
he is loved and wants to be in madrid.....

Re: What did you do to Adebayor?
Nice guy at Madrid. But really a very meh player. Thank god for him he had that one game against the Spurs. Otherwise, he would've had zero impact.
As long as you expect him to score with his head, you're on to something. If you're going to rely on his feet, might as well ask John Terry to be your CF.
Just my opinion.
