UF Quick Throw: Adebayor to Citeh almost confirmed!

Arsenal have accepted a 25m pound offer from Citeh for their sulky, lanky Togolese striker. How many pre-pubescent French starlets will that buy?

Personal terms for Emmanuel are believed to be around 150,000-175,000 pounds a week, proving the adage "more money than sense." They now have a striking corps of Bellamy, Adebayor, Tevez, Santa Cruz, and Robinho. Good luck keeping everyone in check! Or maybe they're bringing back the 2-3-5 formation?

UF Quick Throw: Ade-Bye-Yor?

If we Quick Throw’d every Citeh rumor we’d be all-Citizens all-the-time. And when we thought we’d just do a complete round up this morning of everyone who has turned them down, they go and ruin it by making another splashing rumor. This time it's with someone actively wanting to leave their club.

Adebayor to the powder-blue Mancs?

Quick Throw: Wenger's content to say adieu to Ade

May the Summer of the Stubborn Frenchman continue! He's fine with Adebayor leaving, even if it's to Chelsea. Insert something about the youth in the squad, depth, etc.

Dear Arsene: Our Strikers are Idiots

Ade and Little Nicky discuss their scoring prowess.

Having locked up 4th place (and the corresponding Champions League spot for next year) this past weekend, Arsenal turn their focus to this year's Champions League. Their match today against ManUre (more on this later today) is clearly the most important match of their season with respect to their own ambitions. Down 1-0 after the trip to Old Trafford, the Gunners come into the match today essentially wanting a 2-0 victory. Thus, it is the perfect time for 2 idiot strikers to speak up.

Ahead of such an important match you would think that the Arsenal players would want as little distraction as possible. So what did Ade and Bendtner do? They opened their fat mouths.

For his part, Adebayor has let everyone know that he was very close to signing with the Rossoneri last season, and still maintains contact with club vice-president Adriano Galliani. Even better, considering today's competition, was this statement:

"[AC Milan] have won the Champions League on seven occasions whereas Arsenal have never won it."

Thanks for pointing that out! Not that we're playing a CL semi-final match today or anything.

Little Nicky Bendtner, on the other hand, is still at it trying to convince everyone that he is capable of becoming one of the best strikers in the world. His ego was once again unfortunately inflated due to bringing his season tally to 14 goals in all competitions with the 3-0 victory over Pompey this weekend. Yes, Nicklas, we are aware that you score ugly goals in matches that are of little importance against shite competition. Congratulations. Unfortunately, this is far more common:



As our own Precious Roy noted, consider this post null and void if either/both score a brace and bring us to Rome.

**UPDATE** Oink, Oink

Some fun from the Champions League ManU-Arsenal showdown. Now the question is whether this gent is protecting himself from swine flu or protecting everybody else.



I didn't know Luka Modric was a ManU fan.

After the jump, see if you can spot Mr. PFA Giggs in his usual spot in the stands, plus a few other entertaining photos.




Does Andrei Arshavin ever take a non-goofy photo? I think he's skipping here with his Dorothy Hamill hair.



Must have been beans in the cafeteria that day.







Carlito seems to be enjoying that one a bit too much, don't you think?

Contest Time!

Don't think we've rolled one of these out in a while Hey, we're rolling these out on consecutive weeks but so caption this pic of Adebayor and Arshavin and win a guest post.

Okay, you don't get a post just for submitting, only the best caption wins.

According to blogger, that's a 'large' sized pic. I'm thinking the Google coders have tiny penises (No, really, that's six inches). Anyway, click on the pic to get a slightly bigger view. It helps to get a better sense of how ridiculously the height difference is.

Or just check it out in its original context at the Daily Mail. Also scroll down for a pic of Cesc Fabregas checking out the b-cup rack on Clichy's wife.

UF Quick Throw: Three Weeks For Adebayor

Same as Steive G. It's it's a three week vacation for Emmanuel Adebayor. Not good for the Gunners, but not devastating as, since getting his raise, the Togolese striker has been underwhelming. At least Wenger has the correct assessment of the situation: "We have plenty of strikers."
