Adebayor praise for van Persie

After last night's demolition of FC Porto, striker Emmanuel Adebayor has stated that he was happy with his improving partnership with team mate Robin van Persie.

The pair scored two goals each to secure a 4-0 win over the former European champions.

Adebayor, the Gunners' top scorer last season, said: "We are working hard for the team - he has got the same ambition as me.

"We are here to help this team, we are here to help win something so I'm very pleased with the way he played against Porto.

"I gave him a pass and he gave me a pass. That shows there is a good relationship between the two of us.

"We are very happy and hopefully we can help this team win something this season."
