Adebayor: Arsenal did NOTHING to keep Cesc

Emmanuel Adebayor has spoken of how Arsene Wenger's Arsenal team was broken up.

Adebayor would leave for Manchester City - along with several teammates.

"Kolo, Fabregas, Clichy, Van Persie," he told the Daily Mail. "They all left. I don't think Arsenal have shown love to keep players. You are on huge money at Arsenal. But if you can double your salary, we are footballers and in 10 years, it is over.

"If you are Cesc, going to Barcelona, he will make more money, more sponsorship, and he is going home. What did Arsenal do to keep him at the club? Absolutely nothing. Now the fans say he is not loyal. When you leave Arsenal, you become a traitor, regardless of what you have done. Van Persie was the same."
