If any manager rang me about signing Emmanuel Adebayor I’d have a simple message: take him until the end of the season. You can’t lose.
When you look around at what is available in the market this month, Adebayor on a free transfer until the end of the season is a no-brainer.
Swansea, Norwich, Sunderland, Newcastle, Aston Villa or anyone struggling at the lower end of the table should be looking at him.
He could even perform at a higher level — Chelsea have been linked with him and if he went to a club like that, he’d know he wouldn’t necessarily play every week but on a short-term basis, so he should relish the challenge of proving he is big enough to play in the big games.
He could still do a job in the Premier League, without a doubt. He has still got the ability and is naturally fit.
People get ideas about him but he is a good trainer. You can’t get him off the training pitch a lot of the time.
He did well for me at Tottenham and for Tim Sherwood there later on. He just needs handling. Ade isn’t a dour person who wanders about the place moaning about everything. He knows where he has come from and sends a lot of money back home but he also likes nice things in life.
He likes expensive cars and everything that comes with it. But there is nobody who comes out with more enthusiasm on the training pitch than Ade.
I’ve often seen him spend extra time at the end of training, working on his shooting or specific things he wants to get right in matches.
He wasn’t a minute’s problem to me. He never missed training under my management. As long as he was out there playing, he was happy.
Ade had a bubbly personality and the other lads didn’t have a problem with him. He wasn’t a bad apple in the dressing room at all, as some people think he is. He could get eight or 10 goals between now and May and turn a club’s season around.
