Ten goals in seven games is quite a return. Therefore it is little surprise that Emmanuel Adebayor has been chosen by the fans as their Player of the Month for January.
With the Africa Cup of Nations taking place this month, the Togo striker's availability this month may well have been limited. However Africa's loss is Arsenal's gain. Arsenal's year was just 20 minutes old when Adebayor registered his first goal. That came against West Ham United on New Year's Day. Since then he has fired a brace of goals against Fulham and Newcastle, as well as single strikes against the Kevin Keegan's men again, Birmingham and Tottenham.
It is the first time the Arsenal man has won the award and he has done it by a landslide, polling a massive 71.4 per cent of the vote. French midfielder Mathieu Flamini finished second in our January poll, earning plaudits for his consistency as well as the sumptuos strike against the Magpies in the Premier League. Gael Clichy, again excellent at left back, was third.
