Fergie doing his bit to talk Adam's fee up. 'Those corner kicks alone are worth 10m'.

The cun.t

got me fuming mate.. but he did try to flirt with the female reporter :D


Anyone who is claiming that Blackpool lost because of Adam need their head tested, seriously :no, he was their best player today.

Looks like Holloway knows he is leaving.. but what a classic comment

Holloway on Adam: "He'll go down in folk history here. He deserves a statue & if you give me a hammer & pen-knife I'll start it myself."

:D

At what point do they abandon Suarez and move onto their 2nd choice striker? Hope Comolli can get a deal sorted in the next 48 hours.

thats why were in the mess were in

by abandoned the first choice class act, rather than waiting for the right time to get the right price and instead panicking and buying a donkey instead

many examples of that under rafa

Questions need to be raised now on this whole Suarez debarcle, Comelli and the owners better pull a rabbit out of the hat in the next five days.

If we have the funds, like they say they have, then spend the f**king cash and get it some quality players QUICK SMART.

I think the reason we haven't gone after our second choice striker is because we have a plan put together they are confident of keeping,  It's being said we offer 12.5 and they want 25, but maybe we have sat there and they have dropped it to 18 or 20 and our owners know we are willing to spend that, but they are trying to drop it a bit more before we seal the deal.

I hope at least ???

if the transfer window closes, and we still end up with nobody,
comoli should be sacked, he is here for 6 mths and what is he doing all the while?
playing FM10?

and i am sick of his grouchy face.

Me neither he isnt going to displace Gerrard or Meirelles, and isnt a holding midfielder, I cant see him a regular starter for us, unless its just reinforcements because Spearing & Poulson are not the answer either.

What he would give us is some steal and not let players bully their way through our midfield, but where he fits in is anyones guess? But I trust Kenny 100% and if he wants him he will get him but I wouldnt be paying over the odds for him and I doubt very much we will.

He would play out of his skin for us and run through brick walls like he does at Blackpool and this is something we have been lacking for quite a while to many players have been playing week in week out just for the wages and not for the jersey, Kenny will sort that out and tell them in no uncertain terms this is LFC your playing for if you dont like it you know where the door is.

City havent helped our cause though, I think some of our players have been thinking this past year or so why bother when we can never compete, never say never though who would have thought we would have won the CL with that team in 2005?

Anythings achievable if you believe in yourself.

Adam, Raul and Stevie - 3 man midfielder same as Barca trio of Ineista, Xavi and Burquiest in a 433 formation.

with Suraez and maybe Joe cole supporting Torres.
our trio of midfielders can interchange defensive duties.

this is a super team, and will rule for many years to come.

What i liked most about Adam is his attitude ,he is a leader he isn't afraid of anyone and won't hide on the pitch ,like other players we currently have. He isn't a spectecular passer or dribbler but his steady stable and up for the job. Really impressed me with his mindset and mentality on the field.

He isn't spectacular at passes and his afraid of no one?

Do you watch football like? Adam is a wonderful passer and if anything his tackling isn't great. But, he will be a fantastic addition at thus club. A marvelous player who will fit in great with kennys new Liverpool.

Regarding Suarez, I'm so fed up of reading certain posts on here saying get it done, stop negotiating and sack Commolli etc! That's some of the reasons we are in this mess. Too many so called fans play fm and think they can change a whole team with a couple of clicks of a mouse.

It's depressing and really makes you think whether Liverpool fans are as knowledgable about football than they would like to think the are.

You should be depressed at your level of understanding....

Read Again...Adam ,in my opinion if you allow me that is, He is a good passer a very good one ,but not spectcular ,he is no Alonso and doesn't have this deep imaginative passes you see from time to time. And when i refered to him not being afraid it is plain and simple. He isn't afraid to be shown to ask for the ball to lead the ball ,it has nothing to do with tackles..And bottom line i would really like him to Join Liverpool.

Sorry but you clearly are uneducated on Adam. I personally do not think he is as good as Alonso but to suggest he doesn't have the same passing range and imagination is bullsh!t.

Youtube it.

I doubt you or anyone else (including myself i admit) has followed Adams' career on a weekly basis to make such observations (saw him a few games).

Let's agree that we need to sign him and see how he develops ,like i said he would be a good addition to the club.
