Manchester City ace Emmanuel
Adebayor has launched an amazing attack on his former
Arsenal fans.
The Togo player, who left the Emirates Stadium under a cloud
this summer, hit out at the London club’s supporters last
night.
“Arsenal have a lot of fans who are not fans,” he told The
Times. “What is good is that the City fans truly love you.
“Arsenal have fans from America and Jamaica. Today they are
Arsenal fans, tomorrow they will
be Liverpool fans and after
tomorrow they will be Manchester
United fans.”
In a direct reference to the breakdown in relations between him
and the Arsenal fans towards the
end of last season, the striker added: “If you boo your player
every weekend, I am very sorry, you are not true fans.”
He also remarked: “Arsenal forced me out.
“I told Arsène [Wenger, the Arsenal manager], ‘No matter what you do, I will
not leave the club.’ Arsène told me, ‘You have to leave because
financially we are very bad.’ That makes it more painful. Arsène
knows I didn’t leave for money. Enjoying my football is more
important to me than money.”
