I Love Arsenal's Arsene Wenger - Manchester City Striker Adebayor
The Togolese hitman has acknowledged his debt to the Gunners boss...
Adebayor will face his old club in the quarter-finals of the League Cup next month and he is looking forward to seeing his old boss again.
"I love Arsene Wenger, and I will always keep that love for Arsene - he is the person who made me what I am today," the Togolese told City's official club website.
"I just want to show him what he has taught me in the three years that I was there, and that is the main thing I will keep in mind for the quarter-final next month."
The former Monaco star would also like to move on from the controversy of his last encounter with his former club too, when his contribution to a Premier League win at Eastlands was marred by his controversial goal celebration and kick to the face of Robin van Persie.
"What happened last time is gone. I've told everybody I am sorry for the incident. I made a mistake. We all make mistakes, then you correct them. It won't happen again," he affirmed.
"I was at Arsenal for years and I have nothing against them, the emotion just took over. I have so many good memories of my time there. It's going to be a good feeling for me to play against them."
The player is also keen to reach Wembley by making the final of the League Cup and feels that Arsenal represents a good draw for City.
"Arsenal is a good League Cup draw for us," he added."Now we have to focus on our job, because we can do it. We want to be in the League Cup final. We have beaten them once, we have to beat them again."
