I agree with Mark here. Not every player playing for the likes of Blackpool is shitty.

He plays like a play maker from a deeper role. Something Xabi did for us. He may not have the technical finesse that Xabi had. But he certainly has the passing range, and he is even slightly more mobile than Xabi despite how he looks.

I think we could really do with a player of his ilk...The selling point is that he only costs 3 to 5 million pounds. We need to sometimes make smart Bargain purchases.

I have not seen any valid criticism other than "he plays for Blackpool".

And you'll get none. He is another that gives us fantastic set-piece delivery, and a hugely dangerous free-kick. He'll be boss.

 

[Avmenon]

It's hard to say how well he'd do, but we got in this mess by losing our best players and buying shit ones to replace them.

Only way to get out of it is to reverse that.

Well he'd be replacing Poulsen or Lucas, so..

 

[Whitey85]

If this means the end of Poulsen's Liverpool career then happy days. Adam isn't the best off the ball but he can play a bit when on it and his left foot is a hammer.

Exactly.

How sad. We're hagling over a fat reject from Scotland who this time last year was playing in the Championship (at 24) for 4 to 5m and im actually happy because we're so shit he will improve us.

The premier league trophy is a long fucking way off.

 

[SaintGeorge67]

Not as far as you think Andrew...

 

[Avmenon]

He's pobably the only Red that will hold it for a while.

"Would you like the chance to have your picture taken with the PL trophy?"

"No, I wait till we win it again. By the way, if I was gonna fella, it'd be with red & white ribbons. Ta anyway"

Adam would be an interesting signing. I'd like to see how he would do with us.

Blackpool have indeed rejected an offer from Liverpool for Charlie Adam.

Cheers Tony.

 

[Asbo]

Reportedly 4 Million offer tuned down.

 

[SaintGeorge67]

We're gonna get him aren't we.

But how much is fair? £5m? More?

 

[Judge Jules]

There were suggestions on TalkSport earlier that Adam wants to come and is unhappy the offer's been turned down.

Mind you, it is TalkSport.

 

[ILD]

Yeah. Suarez and Adam is a decent start but fuck all that Point Break is on at half eleven.

well it's not exactly the most implausible of rumours so i think i'll be throwing caution to the wind just this once!

 

[ibromurph]

It's shocking that a player like Adam would greatly improve us.

He's like a poor man's Alonso. Though whenever i've seen him he's come across as a slightly more mobile version of G.Barry, so it's not like he's a poor player period.

Gerrard, him and a strong DM would make a good balanced central midfield 3.

Suarez + Adam + Good winger would make the perfect January.

Follow that up with a strong DM and CB, and that would make the perfect summer.

[/quote]Thats how you get players to sign on football manager. Thats awesome.

 

[SaintGeorge67]

Now we just need Holloway to fine him 2 week wages, and we're in.

 

[Woland]

Buy him tonight and start him tomorrow. Fucking get shut of that gobshite Lucas.

This is exactly the right attitude we need to get things moving.

Nah, Adam must be at least in the 70's. Crunch those numbers again Ryan.

[irishred]

Are the recruitment conditions for signing someone:
a) are they Scottish?
b) are they any good?
