So far this season, Manchester City’s results have been a different gravy. And now the North Western club’s success has seen Tottenham take stock, with Harry Redknapp successfully beefing up his strike force with Emmanuel Adebayor.

This morning the Tongo international has called his latest season with the Manchester club a ‘headache’, insisting he does not regret his move in spite of the blues massive success.

Adebayor moved to White Hart Lane on a season long loan in August after being frozen out by Mancini’s expendable side.

It was clear from the outlay that once the former blues centre forward started to see more time on the bench, the Tongan thought he should have been on the field. And Adebayor may have had a point, scoring 15 goals in 34 appearances was an impressive stat line during his time in Manchester. He shared equal success during his loan spell at Real Madrid, adapting to the Spanish game quickly and scoring in one every 3 games.

Even though he wished his city team mates the best for the future, his lack of comment regarding former manager Roberto Mancini spoke volumes. Refusing to comment on the Italian’s man management skills, Adebayor focused more on his relationship with Redknapp indicating clear signs of a frayed relationship with the City boss.

And his happiness shows in his on pitch performances. Adebayor has scored three goals in six games this season, firing Tottenham closer to a top four finish and that all important Champions League spot.

That’s a trend that is set to continue. Now that Redknapp looks to have kept hold of Modric, the creativity is there to feed a proven striker with goal scoring opportunities. Add Van Der Vaart and Bale to that concoction and you have what could be a spear head attack.

So, the signs certainly suggest that Adebayor is happy down in the North of London and providing the Spurs manager can keep it like that, his new acquisition can expect to produce 15 to 20 goals come the end of the season. Though keeping the threat of Bent off the team sheet will hinge on the Tongon’s success…
