Emmanuel Adebayor, leaving Tottenham, and some stereotypes

Goal analysis: Tottenham’s Gareth Bale (vs Swansea)

While we’re waiting for this evening’s games, let’s take one more look back at one of the goals from the weekend. Tottenham’s second goal against Swansea came, yet again, from the left foot of Gareth Bale – but there was far more to it that just the Welshman’s admittedly stunning finish. Step-by-step… […]

A surprising statistic about Tottenham’s Jermain Defoe

This will brief, as I know some of you aren’t overly fond of statistics. We talk a lot in football about passing statistics, and it’s easy to make a case one way or another about how relevant they are.

Classic goals: Arsenal’s Emmanuel Adebayor (vs Tottenham)

2007. Given what’s happened since this goal was scored, it’s not likely that Arsenal fans will take too much delight in remembering it.

Tottenham’s Andre Villas-Boas discusses Emmanuel Adebayor’s form

The Premier League Owl Jermain Defoe has been ruled out for up to three weeks after the injury suffered at The Hawthorns on Sunday was confirmed as ankle ligament damage.

Emmanuel Adebayor working hard to ruin his Tottenham career

The Premier League Owl Emmanuel Adebayor is heading off to the Africa Cup of Nations, and his parting gift to Tottenham and Andre Villas-Boas has been to make some rather destructive comments to the press. Well done. Terrific. The Mail picks up on some quotations Adebayor gave after confirming his departure to South Africa, claiming that th […]
