Topic: Reds agree Adam deal

[audioedge]

Finally

Welcome to LFC Charlie Adam 

Boss options in midfield now, happy days

[gorgepir]

Just think about the amount of goals from corners that Gerrard will score/assist because he can now stand at the edge of the box!

[Thiago]

Adam and Lucas anchoring midfield with Gerrard or Raul slightly ahead of them, Downing on the left and Henderson on the right, feeding a front two from Suarez, Carroll and Kuyt. Sounds great.

A new 12 man formation? Nice.

[R-L-P_R_I]

YES!

I genuinely don't know how to react. I'm overcome with emotion.

IT'S OVER!!! Hallelujah!

[caze]

I definitely have my reservations about this singing. I think he's a good player though, his obvious standout qualities are his set piece taking, his cross field passing, and eye for a pass in general. Hopefully working with a better quality of coaches and an improved fitness regime will see him improve in the areas he's currently lacking.

He should be lining up alongside Aquilani/Meireles and Spearing in the middle of the park in the coming games in Asia, which looks like a fairly balanced midfield, looking forward to seeing how he gets on.

[Jellies]

7 million plus the players

Did Konchesky give or take to the fee?

[Neil D]

Let's just hope we are all laughing at the end of the season. I am a little nervous the way we are stockpiling Central Midfielders(and possibly shipping out our best performer of last season).

I am not a hypocrite so I will not suddenly be declaring my affection and undying love for Adam but hell , welcome to Liverpool anyway.

How many CMs have we got now who will probably be here next season? Lucas, Adam, Spearing, Gerrard who also plays further forward, Henderson who also plays on the right, then possibly Raul who also plays further forward and Aquilani who also plays further forward. So five to seven, given we all expect Poulsen to leave? Hardly a concern.

You'll change your mind once he starts running games for us.

[Smashedin]

What will Gerrard do during corners now?

[Snail]

Shelvey on loan and Konchesky permanently apparently

[Andy @ Allerton!]

CaaaaaaaaDUM!!

I'm actually very positive with this lad.

He's got a lot going for him

1. He's two footed
2. Great at corners
3. Great at crosses
4. He's Scottish
5. He's not English
6. He's got two first names in his name
7. He's not English
8. He's got a lot of game intelligence
9. He'll add a lot creatively to the team
10. He's not English

[Ziltoid]

Bring out the Trumpets

[Snail]

7 million plus the players

Fucking excellent deal if true.

[Breitner]

Did Konchesky give or take to the fee?

Are you saying he's a giver not a taker?

[Fadil18]

His first liverpool goal from a corner?

[milankakabaros]

Welcome to Liverpool Charlie Adam

Time to work on a Welcome to LFC video for him haha

13 men actually. Front two of three players.

[MikkeB]

at least its over, welcome aboard. love to learn how much we paid...

[Cracking Left Foot]

If the Konchesky rumours are true, Paul's ma won't be happy. They talk even funnier than us over there! :-)

[kinofi]

I wonder if we have sent any player to blackpool on loan as part of the deal

[Andy @ Allerton!]

What will Gerrard do during corners now?

Fuck off away from them hopefully.

In all the time I've watched footy I have never seen such a dire taker of a corner. He must be the worst player in the history of the game at it. He should win an award.

Adam is great at corners. Let him take 'em.

[ghost1359]

If anyone calls him adams I'm gonna punch them in the fucking tits. Glad this is finally over, was getting seriously boring. Looking forward to seeing him on the Asia tour

[Jellies]

Are you saying he's a giver not a taker?

All I can say is that his mother is very disappointed.

[♠Dirty Harry♠]

Let's leave RAWKite's Dads out of this

[Rexy]

Welcome to Liverpool Charles Graham Adam 

[stoopid yank]

Delighted but gutted at the same time for Aqua or Raul... strange feeling.

Lets hope you are wrong.

Why are people so averse to the idea of squad depth, especially at the most important position on the field (cm)? If all you guys are right about the 4-3-3  then we need 6 cm's for the season.

[Carlito Roberto]

Adam and Lucas anchoring midfield with Gerrard or Raul slightly ahead of them, Downing on the left and Henderson on the right, feeding a front two from Suarez, Carroll and Kuyt. Sounds great.

Sounds great but unfortunately this signing could spell the end of Raul, hope not, but something's got to give...

[MassDriver]

Lucas, Adam, Spearing, Gerrard who also plays further forward, Henderson who also plays on the right, then possibly Raul who also plays further forward and Aquilani who also plays further forward.

I really want to. Lets hope he prove me wrong.

[carlitos]

Good player. Lets see how he handles the step up in expectations.

Now lets offload that imposter Aquilani.

[Malaysian Kopite]

Someone in Macedonia, a a man signs a check addressed to the HJC.

Or not.

[♠Dirty Harry♠]

I know you're into your Gerrard bashing, but this point holds some merit

[Uhoh AureliOs]

Shelvey on loan and Konchesky permanently apparently

where's that from?

[Neil D]

A new 12 man formation? Nice.

Is that meant to be funny? I suggested a possible 3-5-2. Could just as easily envisage a 4-5-1. Accomodating a central midfield o Lucas, Adam and Gerrard. Great thing is, now we'll have the options to change our tactics as Kenny desires.

[Hazell]

Delighted but gutted at the same time for Aqua or Raul... strange feeling.

Personally, I don't think we need Adam, and think all our midfielders are better than him (bar Spearing, who I'd want to keep anyway) and would have preferred to keep them than get Adam. It does increase the likelihood of Meireles and/or Aquilani going which would be a shame but there's not much to be done. He's here now and I hope he improves the team.

[AriGold]

At fucking last.

[Fadil18]

1-8-1

It was meant to be yeah. 

[Zizou]

Out of the blue this, is he any good?

Given that a lot of people seem to think either Meireles or Aquilani will be making way am I alone in thinking I'd rather keep Aquilani?

[stoopid yank]

wishful thinking

[Jellies]

Unproven in England I've heard.
