article-1119425-02F22644000005DC-766_306x376As we stand right now, Emmanuel Adebayor is ‘mulling’ the offer received from City. A deal that would land Arsenal a cool £25m and a new lease on life. Adebayor would move to a non-champions league side, while seeing his wages raise from £80,000/week to around £150,000/week. It seems like everyone wins; Arsenal get rid of their lazy, prima donna front man while cashing in for more than he’s worth. And Adebayor gets to play for money. Lets be fair, this move is done. Adebayor cannot come back to the Emirates. Two days ago, Adebayor thought this was too good to be true. He thought ‘they’re going to pay me how much?!’ Now he suddenly is conscious of how the rest of football will see him after the move is finalized, a money hungry git. While there are already hundreds of thousands in North London who have seen this for over a year, Adebayor’s greed will be center stage to a Manchester City crack squad who might just play the worlds first 2-4-4 formation next year. Either way, Adebayor will not be wearing the cannon next season, and for that we can be thankful.
