Comments on: Everton Preview: Back to 4-4-2? http://the-cannon.com/2007/12/28/everton-preview-back-to-4-4-2/ the-cannon.com - An Arsenal FC Blog Thu, 09 Feb 2012 05:00:20 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Gunner8 http://the-cannon.com/2007/12/28/everton-preview-back-to-4-4-2/#comment-38554 Sat, 29 Dec 2007 13:44:16 +0000 http://thecannon.wordpress.com/2007/12/28/everton-preview-back-to-4-4-2/#comment-38554 It is not that Ade is useless, he is just not the striker to lead the line… …I think he would make a superb 3rd Striker but the future is Nick +1

Adebayor is not good enough to play other strikers in, a free Eduardo at NUFC for example that would have killed off the match, but no he tried to do a Henry.

The fact is most people see him on TV in close up and you see a different player to the one that is seen live where you can see the whole picture and build up.

Next time you are at an Arsenal game, watch Ade in the build up, then you might see the problem , yes I think 4-4-2 suits him better but the real problem is he does not have a footballing brain… …when he is in the middle and a ball comes to him with no time he knocks it in… …when he has space and time he blunders EVERY TIME!

am a gunner to the marrow.

I don’t think blaming one individual for our dip is really looking at the bigger picture, do you? Our fixture list has been heavy, with alot of away games. Eduardo is a good finisher, but in the Premiership he looks lost at the moment. He’ll come good next season. Bendtner also looks good as a sub, but would not have the same effect over 90 mins, imo.
Norman, what’s your solution? You’ve slagged off Adebayor without offering any useful suggestions. Please enlighten us.
(btw Ronaldo is top scorer with 12 goals, so perhaps expecting 20+ from Adebayor at the halfway point is a little silly)

Manu and Chelski are using reverse Psychology. Adebayor reminds me of a headless chook, he runs around the field without any idea of what to do. His team mates puts some beautiful through balls only to see the goose offside. With the number of chances Adebayor has been given to score, he should have had well over 20 goals and not a paltry 10.

Everyone knows that Adebayor should not be selected on his form or ability!
I was very dissapointed when Togo missed the African Nations Cup because I was hoping to get rid of Adebayor for a while!
He is useless!!!!

Hleb and Rosicky are tired and Eboue is playing without any deviation to his game, he just goes straight forward into the opponent, and at the moment, this isnt working. I say we take off eboue and rosicky, bring in Diaby and Bendtner/Eduardo. This would have a positive effect on the team’s attacking power and we will create more opportunities. I think, if changes (similar to the ones i have mentioned) occur, then Adebayor will score tomorrow and we will win, even against an in-form Everton side.

He is not that type of striker who can do that. People claim that he is a “Drogba type” striker but he is not. He plays like Henry (not as well) and he needs support. Now Bendtner is the type of striker who can give great support to Adebayor.
