They were and always will be my family," he told the Sunday Mirror.[LNB]"I never saw them behave badly so to react like they did at the weekend shows just how angry and upset they were.[LNB]"No matter what Adebayor's emotions were, he could have earned himself a lot of respect by not celebrating the goal.[LNB]"That would have shown real class and that to be honest is what most players choose to do when they score against their old clubs.[LNB]"I don't really understand why he didn't do that.[LNB]"Arsene (Wenger) puts a lot of investment in you when he sees talent and I don't think it would hurt for Adebayor to show him, the club and the fans a little respect."[LNB]
