Revitalised Adebayor doubtful for FA Cup trip to Arsenal


LONDON (Reuters) - Tottenham Hotspur's revitalised striker Emmanuel Adebayor could miss the tie of the FA Cup third round at former club Arsenal on Saturday after being carried off on a stretcher during Spurs' 2-1 win at Manchester United on Wednesday.

The 29-year-old Togo international, described as "unstoppable" by new Spurs manager Tim Sherwood after scoring the opening goal at Old Trafford, came off after 70 minutes, "needing ice on every part of his body" according to his boss afterwards.
