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

Yes. I'm not sure about him, but if Tim is that should speak volumes.

if we're having to pay his 100k a week in full it's a crap deal in my opinion

surely if we agreed to pay the full amount of the contract Spurs would have sent him to B6 in the fastest car they could get their hands on. In fact they might have sent him via missile or on the back of a NASA rocket. I imagine the reason it is a loan and not permanent, and and took this long is because we have come to a compromise with Spurs on only paying a percentage of his contract not the whole amount.

Adebayor, Adebayorrrrr. Benteke scored lots of goals, he's gunna score more.

No? Shall I get my coat?

How about something like the old Deano chant.

Adeeeee, Adebayor
Scores a goal and then he wants some more
not one, not two, not three, not four
Adeee scores and he scores some more

To the tune of the old trio advert.

The thought of him and Sherwood doing their wanky salute makes me want to throw up my lunch.

If it's to celebrate his hat trick in 5-0 win over Man Utd I might just let him off.

If that happened I'd bloody salute with them!

Either way, it's a hell of a lot more exciting than last summer buying players from a 2007 time warp we'd been sucked in to.

This is exactly what we need, out with the old, in with the new. Could end up just the same but I'm enjoying the ride (probably because we haven't had to watch us yet)

Has anyone actually seen any snaps of him at Villa Park/Bodymoor Heath?

@whispers_listen has just tweeted the deal is now complete, with his weird cryptic sentences.

I think it's Yoda. Didn't know he was a Villa fan!  :)

Judging by his stats he's very reliant on who his manager is, Mancini and Villas Bohas didn't fancy him, whereas Hughes, Redknapp and Sherwood did.

Really not sure about this one, especially if he is our main striker signing. If however we are still planning to bring in another, younger striker (like Gestede) then I can live with it.

I've heard we are paying his full wages in return for not having to pay a loan fee.

Told you it was a done deal a mth ago .....


They have pulled the plug on Townsend ,his work rate isn't good  so I'm happy.

Thou might be in for Lennon.

And theres some more good signings coming .

Isn't that what Ayew is?

I'd imagine Adebayor and Ayew will be it as far as new forwards go...

Adebayor
Ayez
Kozak
Gabby
Robinson

...may be room for one more but I'd be pleasantly surprised if that was the case.
