yes it's crap, as are all celebrations when done by an opposing player. As long as he is scoring them for us I won't give a monkeys how many times he does it.

Being now reported that he's in Birmingham sorting out details and visiting Bodymoor. Suggested it is a loan with a permanent option.
Where's that report ? Twitter ?

way worse...

clicky
Effectively a done deal then

Great for a loan. I'd give the permanent contract a miss though.

surely that depends on how he does and the terms of the deal?

I don't think so. He's one player I wouldn't give a contract to.

Will he do an Adebayor when he scores against Spurs?
He can't play against them
Oh yeah, silly me.

Will he do an Adebayor against Arse & Citeh then?

Every time we hand out a long term deal it backfires.

So the 5 year deal we just gave to Ayew was a bad idea? How about the 4yr deal we gave to Benteke with a 32.5m buy out clause? That served us quite well.

It will be interesting to see if Sherwood can get him scoring again. He took a lot of credit at Spurs for getting Adebayor scoring. Let's hope he can do it again.

Sherwood knows exactly what he is getting from him, so if he wants him that is a good sign.

yep. If nothing else he found a way with Adebayor and Benteke to play to their strengths and get them the ball in dangerous areas. I don't have as much concern with that as I do with him figuring out how to keep the ball out of our net. If we can have a more compact side and not rely on one system to score goals then it could be a good season.

He isn't my favourite player in the world but he is or can be a horrible player to play against for any team. I think being at Villa where he might feel he is the main man could suit his personality and he might flourish, bagging 15 goals possibly.

I feel the same, but for some reason, I can see myself growing to like it :P
