Arsenal legend Adams takes charge of La Liga strugglers

The former Gunners star, who has managed the likes of Wycombe Wanderers and Portsmouth, has been handed the reins at Granada.

FORMER ARSENAL CAPTAIN Tony Adams has been appointed as the head coach of La Liga strugglers Granada until the end of the season.

Granada have replaced Lucas Alcaraz with Adams after Sunday’s 3-1 home defeat against Valencia left them 19th in the table, seven points from safety with seven games to play.

Adams, 50, who spent his whole playing career with Arsenal, winning four league titles, has previously managed Wycombe Wanderers, Portsmouth and Gabala.

The ex-defender spent 22 years with the Gunners, and is widely considered to be one of the best players to have played for the club.

Adams won four First Division and Premier League trophies with the Gunners, along with three FA Cups and the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup.

    Toulon are a shadow of themselves this season. . Chickens coming home to roost it would seem. . Hopefully the same happens at Saracens soon but this year I feel they are head and shoulders above the rest and likely wont be stopped from retaining the BT cup.

    The smart money is on Wasps this year! Sure they have bloody well spent enough to win it.

    Fair play to Peter Stringer for playing the match , a true gentleman and professional.However it was a poor match. Toulon don’t play as well as they used to , that’s for sure. They should’ve blown Sale out of the water. There was some good performances from Halfpenny, Gorgodze and Vermeulen.
    Vermeulen was superb at the breakdown winning 3 key turnovers and working hard clearing out conceding no turnovers and gave a very physical performance up front despite a stupid yellow card. The Springboks in November will need him at his world class form. Wales will also be happy to see a fit Halfpenny for the internationals . Gorgodze gave his standard physical carries and metres helping Ollivon score his 5th try of the season which is great for a blindside and should be expecting that French call up soon.
