A Quote by Emmanuel Adebayor

If I'm on the pitch, and I score, and I'm not going to celebrate, I would rather tell the manager I'm not going to play because what is the point of scoring goals and not celebrating?
I'm not going on the pitch just to score goals, I am going on there first to win and to play well and then, if I have the chance to score as well, that's even better.
Obviously when you're a striker you need to score. The manager's not going to just play you if you're not scoring.
I loved Plymouth and my time there because it helped me get my life back on track and I started scoring goals. But when I went there, it's not a place you dream of playing. It's not the team you dream of playing for. And you know when you're there, if you don't score goals or play well you're going down there and down from Plymouth is not pretty.
Why can you not enjoy scoring and celebrating a goal for your new team with your fans? They have travelled all that way; enjoy it - simple as that. Some players choose not to, and that's fine, but it's just who I am - celebrate scoring goals. It's a great feeling.
When we won the league at Tottenham, they came back 2-2 in the last-minute of the game, and they're celebrating - because they're happy to draw against us, obviously. And I remember saying to Mauricio Tarricco, do you realise we only need a point to be Champions? And they all [were really shocked]. So I said 'Yes. Now we're going to celebrate on your pitch. Bye bye!'
Generally, you're going into every game with excitement. You know you're going to play forward and not going to defend. You're going to try to create and score goals.
I prefer scoring goals, but when I am playing out on the right, I tend to come inside and provide assists, but I also like playing on the left, and I think if that is where I play, then I will have more chance of scoring - but I just hope I can help the team score goals with my assists.
Scoring goals is nothing new for me. Every time I go out onto that pitch, I just go out there to score goals.
At City, when I was playing, I knew that at some point, the substitution board would go up, and I was going to come off because the manager didn't have trust in me. Then, you start to lose your confidence on the pitch.
Ronaldo? He is the most dangerous player at Real. It is hard to stop him, like Messi, because both score a lot of goals, and you never know what is going to be the next thing they will invent for scoring.
I feel embarrassed at times when I come off the pitch because we are losing games and not scoring goals and conceding goals. It's not nice.
I never enter in the pitch under pressure to score goals, but I know my position requires me to score goals.
Of course a striker wants to score as much as possible. It's nice scoring goals. Goals are like an addiction: when you score, you want to keep doing more and more.
I'd reached the point at West Brom where I'd play well, score goals, set up goals and nothing would come from it. I'd go home, come back the next day and everything would be the same. No reward, no response.
I'm going to play with one goalkeeper, obviously, one defender, one midfielder and two attackers, very offensive because we need to score goals.
Scoring goals is scoring goals. From a striker's point of view, the aim is the same.
