Emmanuel : Shafted Part 2

Emmanuel Adebayor today received his 2nd punishment in a month from the FA. He was charged for having the audicity to celebrate his goal in front of a rather sensitive Arse end. Adebayor was fined £25k for the misdemeanour, described by the FA as 'improper conduct' and given a suspended sentence. He'll therefore have to be a good boy until December 2010 or he'll once again feel the FA's wrath and be sidelined yet again.

The £25,000 'up-yours!' slide - well worth it!

City boss Mark Hughes had earlier stated that he didn't feel the celebration was worthy of any further sanction, following Adebayor's charge for violent conduct during the same fixture. The striker had accidently kicked Dick van Persie in the face and received a three match ban as City overcame the Gooners 4-2.

The Togolese international will now be available for selection for City's trip to Aston Villa on Monday. This is great news for Hughes, who now has the eager RSC as a target-man option too.

It won't be long before the squad is bolstered by a fit Robinho, Kompany and dare we say Johnson....... City are becoming even stronger!
