Let me personally accompany you to the airport, Emmanuel

To be champions in this way? You can never be a champion.
This is what Emmanuel Adebayor just told the media. The media, not his fellow players. Who the hell does he think he is? Of all people in the team, he’s the last one to have the right and speak like that. When I was told he wanted to leave for A.C. Milan last summer, I wanted to personally accompany him to the airport, because I knew that we didn’t need him. Here’s today’s full interview:
To be champions in this way? You can never be a champion. There is a lot of disappointment. We are down at the moment because we did everything to get the three points and we ended up with one.
We feel very sorry for ourselves that the things are not going the right way. It was one of the most difficult games in my life because I cannot understand that after 90 minutes we were leading 4-2 – I don’t know how we finished with a draw. It’s very easy to give up because we were 4-2 up and maybe thinking the game was finished. With five, six or seven minutes to go, maybe in our head the game was over.
I don’t care how big he is, if I were there during the interview I would have kicked his butt from the press room all the way to the airport. It’s unacceptable that before such a tricky match he comes out talking like that. Especially after he missed yet another glorious chance, I think we were 3-1 up when he blasted one wide from close range.
And well, I wouldn’t be surprised if Wenger starts with him tomorrow.
