He done Fabregas in 1st half & the van Persie right in front of Clattenberg who must have seen what happens as he stops to check on VP as he runs past!<br /><br />Needyayor can celebrate how he likes, Henry done the same @ Highbury when scoring against Spurs when he ran from the North Bank to slide on his knees in front of Clock End.<br /><br />The other point is if the nasty words wound him up so much, why did he play like such a mardy faced waster when the United fans were screaming abuse at him in last years semi!!<br /><br />DGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8039788627600282262.post-73806846307762212392009-09-14T11:27:11.261-07:002009-09-14T11:27:11.261-07:00to the anonymous poster above

When VP scored he didnt really have anywhere else to go in a stadium full of City fans, and lots of players head for the nearest TV camera. Adebayor was out of order, and deserves to be punished. Of course the situation is two sided, but one side didn't do anything out of the ordinary, Adebayor did.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8039788627600282262.post-12137323548860879382009-09-14T10:39:23.050-07:002009-09-14T10:39:23.050-07:00A well thought out blog but I disagree with some o...A well thought out blog but I disagree with some of your comments and observations.<br /><br />1. What is the difference between what Adebayor celebration and the Van Perse verbal assault to the CITY fans? In fact Van Perse ran directly to the nearest CITY fans he could reach. Two wrongs do not make a right, but did this not set the tone?<br /><br />2. The Van Perse tackle on Adebayor was 2 footed, from behind. The ref should have blown straight away and thus defused the situation.<br /><br />I'm a CITY fan. I'm not condoning what Adebayor did, what I'm saying is that there are 2 sides of the story, yet the media only want to hang, draw and quarter Adebayor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8039788627600282262.post-8272176050824367702009-09-14T08:51:21.716-07:002009-09-14T08:51:21.716-07:00Pity to see such a potentially great player acting...Pity to see such a potentially great player acting like a total fool. Why he was so upset at Arsenal, I have no idea. Seems he wanted them to fight to keep him, but went completely the wrong way about it. Moreover, I'd be very upset if I was a Manchester City fan, player or staff member.<br /><br />On another note, you call that a celebration? This is a celebration (which I disapprove of wholeheartedly, of course):<br /><br />http://www.rugbynetwork.net/boards/read/s96.htm?98,10848538Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
