It seems that Emmanuel Adebayor, the Togolese striker at Tottenham, has expressed his dissatisfaction with being on the bench to his manager, Andre Villas-Boas. Despite Adebayor’s limited playing time this season, Villas-Boas has expressed confidence in the striker’s abilities and emphasized that the club has no intention of selling or loaning him. The manager attributes Adebayor’s reduced involvement to injuries but expresses belief in his quality, considering him one of the best strikers globally.
Villas-Boas praises Adebayor’s positive attitude and anticipates his return to the team, stating that the club is happy with his contributions when available. The manager hopes Adebayor will be ready for upcoming matches, indicating confidence in the striker’s potential.
There are indications from English media reports that suggest Adebayor might be included in the starting lineup for the Europa League match against Maribor. If true, this would mark Adebayor’s first start for Tottenham this season since joining permanently in the summer.
Tottenham has predominantly played with a single striker, Jermain Defoe, since the start of the season. It remains to be seen how Adebayor’s expressed desire for more playing time will impact the manager’s decisions and whether he will indeed feature prominently in upcoming matches.
