Wenger lays down Adebayor challenge

ARSENAL manager Arsene Wenger has challenged 30-goal leading scorer Emmanuel Adebayor to improve next season — and warned the Togo striker against ending up as a nobody through complacency.

The big African, 24, has this season gone some way to filling the boots of legendary forward Thierry Henry, who hit the personal milestone for five seasons in a row from 2001/02.

However, despite finding the net for an impressive streak of nine consecutive games earlier in the campaign, Adebayor lost his magic touch as the Gunners’ bid for Barclays Premier League and European glory faded.
