Nigeria: Adebayor Confident Man City Will Improve

Manchester City and Togolese striker, Emmanuel Adebayor is not overly concerned by his side's current run of draws, and expects them to start winning again soon.

City have not won in the Premier League since late September, but Adebayor maintains that such dips are usual in a team's season and there is no major cause to worry.

The Togolese claims that he experienced similar things when at Arsenal and he learned that the key was reacting positively to the situation rather then letting it distract from the team's focus.

"When I was at Arsenal, we always had a spell where we'd draw four or five in a row," he said, according to Sporting Life.

"Big clubs always have difficult moments in a season. These are the type of things that can happen and the secret is dealing with it well.

"How we deal with the hard times will be the test of whether we finish in the top four."
