Manager Arsène Wenger has praised striker Emmanuel Adebayor, whom
he lablels is stronger and braver than former captain Thierry
Henry.
Henry left Arsenal in the summer to join Spanish club Barcelona,
and Wenger expected Adebayor to step-up and take on the Arsenal
scoring mantle.
Adebayor has already scored 13 goals this season, and is still
improving.
Wenger said: "If anything, he's even stronger and braver than
Thierry.
"He's had to work on his finishing but he's a clever player and
Thierry Henry definitely passed on plenty of tips to him.
"They used to talk to each other a lot and Thierry advised him to
try and be calmer (in front of goal).
"When he scored his third goal, I said to myself, 'Now that was a
Thierry Henry goal,' I really did."
I dont know if Le boss is trying
to make a joke or not,but I really do hope Adebayor will be
stronger than Henry and be a world class player.
