Arsenal hero Ray Parlour has
urged his old club to take the money Manchester City is offering for Emmanuel
Adebayor.
Parlour told the Daily Star: “He was too lazy at times
last season and just didn’t do it.
“His body language wasn’t great. He has a big contract, which
maybe is because he had a good season the year before – but he
needs people behind him getting on his back.
“Wenger will not stand in his way because they can get a lot of
money for him and then get a very good player to replace him.
“His attitude amazed me at times last season when he just didn’t
put it in. Sometimes if things are not going well for you, you have
to show desire.
“At first I heard £30m bandied around, and I’d snap their hand
off at that price. Then you go and get an excellent player who will
work his socks off.”
