Tottenham Hotspur's revival down to Emmanuel Adebayor's return, claims team-mate Danny Rose Tottenham have taken 10 points from four games under Sherwood. "A lot of it is down to Ade coming back into the team," said Rose. He has been like a new signing in both boxes - winning [defensive] headers at corners and stuff. Adebayor was forced to train with the youth team at the start of the season under Villas-Boas and even told to apologise from a raised platform to the entire squad for his behaviour. Rose, though, claims that he has not seen any problems with Adebayor's attitude. "The first season under Harry Redknapp there were no questions about his attitude," he said. Last season, I can't speak for that because I wasn't here so I don't know what happened. When I came back pre-season, his attitude was fine. Obviously, there was a bit of a disagreement between him and Andre but it is finished now. We are all grateful he is back in the team. He hasn't got a point to prove but he is playing as if he has and he looks fresh and he is causing teams a lot of trouble. Adebayor is certain to have particular motivation to face Arsenal in the FA Cup tomorrow after being sold by Arsène Wenger in 2009 but his fitness is still being assessed after he had to be carried off against Manchester United with suspected cramp. Sherwood said that Adebayor was covered in ice after the match, meaning "we're not sure which is hurting him more." Rose believes that Tottenham must approach Arsenal with the same mixture of respect and confidence they showed at Old Trafford. "You have to earn their respect and I thought we did that," he said. We will have to do the same thing at the weekend at the Emirates and try to weather the storm away from home, break on the counter attack and nick a goal. Meanwhile, Lewis Holtby has asked Sherwood for assurances over his future at the club. The Germany international may consider quitting White Hart Lane later this month if he does not feel he will get enough chances. Holtby has started only one match for Sherwood and the 23-year-old was not even named among the substitutes for the last two games against Stoke City and Manchester United. Sherwood has preferred 19-year-old Nabil Bentaleb, who he knows from Tottenham's Under-21s. Having switched back to a two-man attack, Sherwood has ensured that places in the centre of Tottenham's midfield are now hard to secure with seven players fighting for two spots. Holtby joined Tottenham from Schalke last January and quickly established himself as a popular member of the first-team squad. He has made 36 appearances for Spurs, but may well consider a return to Schalke during this transfer window. Speaking about his future, Holtby recently said: "I would never rule out a return to the Bundesliga, especially Schalke, where I had a great time." Having managed to sign Holtby for a cut-down £1 million fee, Tottenham could expect to make a healthy profit if they cash in this month.
