Adebayor Loses Confidence

Emmanuel Adebayor is none too happy with his club, after their 4-4 draw in the North London derby against Tottenham Hotspur. The striker is coming to terms with the realization that Arsenal do not have what it takes at present to win a title, and that is completely true. Defensive errors have plagued Arsenal, and the acquisition of former United man Silvestre hasn’t done much to quell the problem.
Arsene Wenger has clearly shown he is losing his worth as a manager, because the Wenger philosophy just has no place at Arsenal any longer, it’s time for a change. Just look at what Adebayor is saying about the state of Arsenal after the Tottenham draw: “To be champions in this way? You can never be a champion,”“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.“
The Togo international just doesn’t seem as though Wenger is making much of an impression on him, nor does he sound confident in his managers ability to coach the club to victory.
Wenger is losing it, his philosophy is much too old school for the face of today’s Premier League. Either the Wenger era needs to end, or Arsenal can look forward to being stuck in 6th or 7th place every year, very soon.
