Emmanuel Adebayor says that he is no longer guaranteed a starting position in the Arsenal team, but won't allow that to get him down.

The Arsenal striker is facing competition from Robin van Persie, Julio Baptista and Jeremie Aliádíère to partner Thierry Henry in attack.

Adebayor said that he is looking forward to the competition, and it will only make him work harder in training.

"When I first came to Arsenal I knew it would give me a great chance to learn and improve my game.

"I am still a young player, but things are going well for me at the moment.

"I am progressing a lot, am working hard, and I think I am improving in front of goal.

"I just focus on the job, run everywhere, and try to score some goals, to put my whole heart into it."

if rumours of cassano and baptista being offered to arsenal in a swap for reyes are to be believed, then there may be even more competition for strikers at arsenal!
