Topic: Reds agree Adam deal

[EFoley]

I really think its ridiculous that people can't get it into there heads that squad depth is a good thing?

[Torpedo Tommy]

I'm chuffed with this signing. Brings a lot to Anfield

Welcome Charlie - best o' luck

free kicks that may genuinely go in..can't wait

 Because they're nob heads who moan about everything, especially because he isn't called Carlos Adaminho.

 Wait until he puts on the shirt and plays a few games before sharpening your knives eh lads? I remember someone saying here a few weeks ago, Liverpool FC has never bought stars, it's made them.

Exactly what I was thinking about 20 seconds ago.

And corners that might be productive.

Wonders will never cease.

At what point, does it stop being squad depth and the squad becomes over bloated?

We've got ten central midfielders in our squad, does that not equate to the squad being bloated?

[nevoo36]

About bleeding time, I have had a bit of a hard on for Charlie Adam for a while and I truly think he will be the difference in us being probable top 4 contenders to potential title challengers.

No cause some of them CM your counting can play in different positions.

Some players will also be sold.

Gerrard
Henderson
Lucas
Adam
Aquilani
Meireles
Poulsen
Shelvey

Out of those 8, 4 can play in wider positions. Gerrard, Shelvey, Adam and Henderson.

We have depth but we also have options.

[Musketeer Gripweed]

I have warmed to us signing him after my initial misgivings. It does seem the lad I remember from his Ross County and St Mirren days might have grown up a bit now.

He is certainly capable of some wonderful moments...

I did post it months ago when all this madness first started, but you might actually want to watch it now. Sorry for the poor quality of the clip in advance.

When haven't we been weigh laden with centrally biased players in the last 10 years.

Surely we've seen the last of Poulsen in a red shirt too, even if he does sit out his contract.

[hoonin]

Good news. Glad it's finally sorted and look forward to seeing what Kenny, Clarke and Keen can do with him.

Can see us lining up with a 4-4-2, 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1, 4-1-3-2, 3-5-2 or maybe even a bold and ground breaking 3-1-3-1-2 or 3-2-1-3-3 formation this year.

One (all) can only hope mate.

[buzzing]

I think we are signing our replacement for Alonso in this guy.

Aquilani and/or Meireles will leave this Summer.

Think Henderson is the xabi. Henderson's ability to pick out a pass looks really good

[Mark Walters]

Do you need reassurance?

Fucking hell, you're like Ted Rogers with a stammer.

[AnnieRoad(Un)Faithful]

You're right, it does...but Adam can ping the ball around bloody well too.

Pass and move alright!

[farawayred]

Yes. But also, if Gerrard ever again takes a corner with Adam on the pitch, I'd be pissed. First, Adam has better delivery, and secondly, more importantly, Gerrard is more dangerous at the edge of the box.

[sneakyg]

im not sure where he is gonna play, not sure what this means for raol, but glad this is finally over (well moreless)

hope he keeps us his form and improves his game when he doesnt have the ball.

not over the moon with the signing, but happy.

hope we get someone of the 'suarez' status now

[Callaghan.]

Fucking hell, you're like Ted Rogers with a stammer.

Dusty bin

[Paul JH]

Adam for me is the kind of player, hopefully with us to, who will go looking for the ball and change a game. No disrespect to them both, but Shelvey (at the moment) and Spearing, who I thought was great last season, to me anyway, aren't that kind of player. (assuming Lucas and Stevie will be first choice). We need someone else in the side who can see the killer pass or set piece, and Adam can do that.

We've needed another player with a bit of vision for a while now, and he's a steal at this price.

[benn25]

At fucking last. What a drawn out affair that was. I hope he's worth 200 odd pages.

[Ambrosia]

We have depth but we also have options.

Shelvey? the few times he was played on the wings he's struggled. Don't think he's a wide player.

Point taken with the rest. However, we should still be looking to get rid of a few midfielders before we can claim it's squad depth we've got and not a bloated squad.

When haven't we been weigh laden with centrally biased players in the last 10 years.

Touché.

Welcome Charley - please stay away from RAWK (unless a tin-hat was in your LFC induction pack)

Is this like one of those concentration tests where you have to find the odd number?

3-2-1-3-3 formation this year.

Jonjo Shelvey and Stephen Darby heading for Bloomfield Road on season-long loan deals as part of the agreement for Adam deal. #LFC dunno how reliable it is a source just thought i would share

Indeed it is. As Rolf would say, have you got it yet....?

[skipper757]

Get in.  Glad this is sorted.  A very good midfielder who can provide us with a different skillset.
