It’s been almost a month since Emmanuel Adebayor and Arsenal were face to face at Manchester in Mark Hughes’ controversial 4-2 win over Arsene Wenger’s side.

Speaking to the Evening Standard, ex-Gunner Emmanuel Adebayor revealed insults against his parents were addressed against him, something which he simply “could not stand”.

The Togo International said:

I think we are all human beings and there are things we can stand and others we can’t. We all have limits. I’m lucky that my mother is still alive. I think I would never accept things being said and done regarding my mother.

When I heard the fans singing and insulting my parents . . . I couldn’t stand it. When I scored, I wanted to show them, ‘You kicked me out of the club, now I’ve scored against you.’ It was a response to what happened, but I did not in any way want to provoke them.

My relationship with Arsenal has broken in two. I wanted to stay. It’s true that I didn’t score a lot of goals last season, but I was often injured.
