Manu Adebayor has had a long-running feud with Arsenal teammate Nicklas Bendtner, it has been revealed.

The pair clashed at the end of Arsenal's 5-1 humiliation at Tottenham and had to be separated by teammates. A source told The Sun: "The first thing Adebayor said to Bendtner was 'I'm only on because you are so s**t!'

"He has been on Bendtner's case for a long time.

"The pair do not get on and it finally boiled over on Tuesday night when Adebayor came on as a sub with the team 4-0 down.

"Bendtner ignored him - but when Adebayor said the same thing again later on, Nicklas gave Manny the finger and it all kicked off."

The warring team-mates had to be pulled apart as Adebayor nutted Bendtner in the face.
