André Villas-Boas, the former Tottenham coach, reacted to Emmanuel Adebayor’s goal by defending his choices in the summer transfer window. Following his dismissal after Tottenham’s 0-5 defeat against Liverpool, Villas-Boas explained that four of the current squad members, including Adebayor, were not his preferred choices. He mentioned Erik Lamela, Nacer Chadli, Vlad Chiriches, and Christian Eriksen as players brought in by the president and sporting director. Villas-Boas stated that he had different targets, such as Hulk, David Villa, and Joao Moutinho, using the funds from Gareth Bale’s transfer. The coach did not provide comments on Adebayor’s situation in his statement.
