Emanuel Adebayor discussion
Looked very relaxed in sky interview which is encouraging

Six years ago today we went into administration...now we have Cabaye and Adebayor. I'm excited by this signing and our position in football...don't care what any of you negative lot have to say about 'he could be this, he could do that blah'. Lets enjoy having a player who's played for arsenal and real Madrid in our team.

I liked that he said he already knew some of our players and was looking forward to playing with them. Even if he doesn't have a passion for Palace, he should want to do well for his mates and not let them down.
Wasn't so keen on him referring to himself as 'Adebayor', rarely a good sign when people refer to themselves in the third person! |

I would have said very low risk?, 6 months wages probably subsidised by Spurs

Read somewhere this morning we are paying him around the 70K mark a week with the top up coming from Spurs - a calculated risk but cost halved if we can shift Campbell

Would be better if anyone could understand a word he says.

Indeed. And he'll get match fit by playing matches. As long as his base fitness is good, which it probably is, he should hopefully be able to make a cameo Saturday or Tuesday.

I must say, I like him from the interviews I've seen. Seems pretty honest, enthusiastic and switched on. Aside from what he can bring on the pitch, I suspect he'll prove a few people wrong and actually be a very positive influence in the dressing room. |

Top strikers score goals. Adebayor is a top player, he will score goals.
The most similar recent transfer I can think of is Anelka to West Brom/Bolton. He scored goals despite being written off as a mercenary/sulker etc. Even though it ended somewhat acrimoniously at WBA, he scored goals during his time there. I am sure Bayo will be the same.

Me too! A weakness of many an ego-driven boxer who believe themselves to be a brand. But, on the whole, happy to have the man on board.

Me. I think it's a dreadful signing. The fella will take at least a month to get match fit/sharp having not started a competitive game since November 2014. We'll be paying him a shit of load of money. He's widely regarded as a lazy and troublesome player etc..
Of course, I hope I'm wrong and I will celebrate every goal he scores like a madman - And I genuinely hope it's plenty, but I just can't see it. |

Has he earned the right to have his name sung yet?
|
#18
|
||||
|
||||
People are already calling him 'Bayo'
|
#19

All the JCLs voting for the positive options just because he's signed
