Dimitar Berbatov and Emmanuel Adebayor were lazy - Brede Hangeland

Former Fulham defender Brede Hangeland has listed forwards Emmanuel Adebayor and Dimitar Berbatov among the laziest footballers he played with, in a lighthearted interview in his native Norway.

The towering centre-back, who retired in August, told a number of anecdotes from his 15-year career on the podcast "Heia Fotball" and listed his "Laziest XI" of former teammates.

Hangeland also named Wilfried Zaha and Jimmy Bullard, while Berbatov was singled out for spending more time getting massages than training.

The former Norway international claimed Adebayor would be drinking coffee in the gym rather than working out when they played together at Crystal Palace, and said the striker once asked him for restaurant tips during a game when Fulham played against Tottenham.
