Redknapp: Adebayor can handle Arsenal game

Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp is hoping that Emmanuel Adebayor can continue his rich vein of form against his former club Arsenal, when the North London duo meet this weekend.

Adebayor has scored three goals in two games for Spurs, and Redknapp backed Adebayor to return to haunt his former club.



Adebayor spent 3 and a half years with the Gunners, before leaving for Man City.



Redknapp revealed: "There is always aggravation when players leave clubs but he will get on and hopefully play well. William Gallas played against Arsenal last year and for me was the man of the match. He showed his character last year in that game and I am sure Manu will do the same on Sunday.



"It is another great opportunity for Emmanuel Adebayor to play for Tottenham. He has been playing well for us, the crowd love him and he has been a big bonus for us so far. His performances have been fantastic. Let's hope he can keep that up."
