If , and a big If we could get Emmanuel Adebayour as our loan striker would you want him or would he be too big a distruption to the squad.

I say this seeing it emerged that he would have gone to West Ham but only if Spurs had paid him £5 mill which is the rest of his £ 100k a week salary for the year remaining , plus he would have been paid by West Ham .

If we could get him on a similar deal as per Wayne Bridge would you want ?

I don't think so. Adebayor thought Arsenal/the World Cup stage weren't big enough for him, so I really can't see him doing something he doesn't want to when Chris Hughton tells him to at Brighton.

You can be lucky with the big names - I thought Bridge and Upson were model pros at the Amex - but he looks much too big a risk.

best to swerve this one, his best days are way behind him, otherwise he'd be in contention at Spurs (bare in mind they have only Kane as a recognised striker right now)

He would disrupt the squad totally being on such high wages so an emphatic no from me.

A completely unnecessary risk, as no better than Zamora anyway.

Totally no. What I like about our current squad is that there is no one that seems to think he is bigger than the team. #Together

Nope. Want a striker to compete with Baldock. We've already got Hemed and Zamora for his type of role. Ignore the fact he is a complete arse.
