Wenger ready to move on after Adebayor saga

ARSENAL boss Arsene Wenger yesterday moved to draw a line under the Emmanuel Adebayor saga – insisting as a manager you “expect nothing back” in return for your hard work.

The Togo international, sold to Manchester City for £25 million (€29m) during the summer, has been banned for three matches for his stamp on Robin van Persie in the 4-2 win over his old club last Saturday – and faces the threat of further punishment if the FA take a dim view of his controversial goal celebration in the same game at Eastlands.

Gunners captain Cesc Fabregas also claimed to be the victim of a bad challenge from his former team-mate.
