Fired-up Adebayor issues top-four caution

TOTTENHAM can forget about finishing in the top four unless they perform well over the festive period, Emmanuel Adebayor has warned.

Spurs play at Norwich today before heading to Swansea on New Year’s Day and then play West Brom on January 3 at White Hart Lane.

Despite failing to overcome Chelsea last week, Spurs are brimming with confidence having lost just once in their last 14 matches to move up to third in the Premier League. But with Tottenham just three points ahead of fifth-placed Arsenal, Adebayor knows failure to deliver against three teams they are expected to beat over the coming week could cost the club dearly.
