Emmanuel Adebayor: How to fail upwards...

Emmanuel Adebayor has gone out on loan, a move that will see him go from Manchester City's bench to Real Madrid's bench until the end of the season.

The striker, once described as "slightly peppery" and "machine washable", has been now been referred to as a "physical marvel" by Real Madrid. The only marvel with Adebayor is how the same player could run the hundred in 10.04 seconds to goad opposition fans, yet took three and a half years to get back into an onside position...

From Arsenal, to Manchester City, and now to Real, Adebayor is inexplicably managing to build a career in failing upwards, collecting massive signing-on bonuses and wage-increases for doing three-fifths of fark all each week. Like the Rob Schneider of the football world, you wonder how on earth he manages to keep earning a decent wage. And not unlike Rob Schneider, after sitting through a 90 minute "performance", you more than just a little ripped off...

Before the Gunners fans lose their shit (McBurnie) — I'm in no way suggesting that moving from Arsenal to City represents an improvement in footballing terms... not yet anyway. But boy-oh-boy was it an improvement to Badbuyor's wallet. Worst of all, he probably feels he has been vindicated for acting like a twat most of his professional career.

The day he leaves the club for good, will be the time to pop open the champers. And a good time will be 'ad-by-all... had by... is this thing on?

Hopefully Andy Gray will be fired from the FIFA series as well, so we no longer have to hear about those fucking headers from 25 yards...
