Samuel Eto'o: Emmanuel Adebayor is the best African Player
0 comments Posted by world's most popular artists at Tuesday, November 25, 2008
According to the press, some top strikers are voting for the African award, but none are without their baggage. The popular Samuel Eto'o has been frequently linked with a Camp Nou exit, Chelsea hitman Didier Drogba has become all-too-familiar with the Stamford Bridge treatment room and Emmanuel Adebayor has fought tooth-and-nail with the Fédération Togolaise de Football over unpaid bonus monies.
However, Eto'o believes that Ade has done enough - emerging from the shadow of the departed Thierry Henry for the Gunners - to deserve the continent's top individual honour.
Eto'o expressed: "I would have loved to win this award again, but this year has been Adebayor's year. His performances for Arsenal FC and Togo throughout the year have been outstanding. He should win ahead of Drogba and I."
"Honestly, Drogba and I have been afflicted with injuries for some part of the season and it was Adebayor who was flying the African flag."
We must say that Eto'o's backing will be music to Ade's ears as he recovers from an ankle injury.

Striker Da Silva Gets Work Permit to Arsenal
0 comments Posted by world's most popular artists at Thursday, August 09, 2007
Arsenal striker Eduardo da Silva has been granted a work permit by the Home Office following a hearing on Thursday.
The Gunners signed the 24-year-old Brazilian-born Croatian international striker from Dinamo Zagreb in July.
His application for a work permit went to an appeal because he had not met the criteria of 75% of international appearances over the past two years.
But Thursday's appeal proved successful and he celebrated by scoring the winner in a 2-1 friendly win over Lazio Club.
