Did i say consistently? I'm not expecting him to create lots of goals on his own, but when we had Jermain ****ing Defoe playing for us I had more confidence that he would pull something out of the hat than I do in Soldado.

But he got a chance when Sherwood was installed as manager. He never would have got that chance if Sherwood had the same line of thinking as what some are saying about Soldado. Adebayor had just as bad of a season in 2012/13 as Soldado did last season.

Wut?
When Timmeh took over he changed formation and went 4-4-2. So a second striker was included in the side, which meant Adebayor got recalled. The change in formation was the catalyst. Adebayor didn't suddenly replace Soldado.
It was a tactical decision by timmeh that got Adebayor back in the side.
So sure, if Poch decides to go 4-4-2 I could understand Soldado being recalled, maybe he'd have better luck in that system too. As long as Poch sticks with a single striker however..

That's not really the point. The point is he got another chance despite being horrific the previous season. Sherwood could just have easily have put Harry Kane up front with Soldado.

Most likely trying to decide whether to retire from international football or not.

Our last 3 managers don't either, apparently. Or, maybe they do, and thats the problem.
So why do people keep bringing up Ade's wages?
He could score 30 and some still wouldn't like him.

Please don't trot out the same old "we only don't like him cos he played for Arsenal" line.
I don't know, im not so maybe ask those who are?

btw what does Soldado being a success in Spain have to do with absolutely anything?

Ade is inconsistent but Soldado is pure turd water. Ade is by no means clinical but in comparison to Soldado he's Aguero/Falcao esque.
Have people actually forgotten the sitters Soldado has missed in his spurs career? you can literally make a 3 minute compilation about it.

Guess the problem is that whenever any of our forwards do become consistent scorers they end up getting tapped up by ManU or Real Madrid, so we end up being stuck with infuriatingly inconsistent players like Defoe and Ade who are only able to top the league charts for offsides.

KD Mate, have you forgotten all the sitters Adebayor has missed? The time at Upton Park where he did an airshot and missed the ball :lol: or in the same game when he missed a point blank headed from 4 yards out. Or the one on Sunday when he missed the ball, not the target, he missed the ball! Or that penalty miss with the comical run up against Basel?
