Charlie Adam keeps thanking goodness for his move from Blackpool to one of world football’s most successful teams, Liverpool FC.
Charlie Adam couldn’t use a better word to describe the Merseyside Reds. In an interview with the English press on Thursday, the £7M signing was quoted as saying:
“No disrespect to Blackpool, but the size of this club is ginormous. It's one of THE top ones in the world, one of the elite. There aren't many who would get nearly 40,000 fans watching a training session, 80,000 watching a friendly.
“The reception in Asia, the whole thing, was incredible and shows the size of this place. But that's the expectation of being here.
“You look at the history of the club, with Bill Shankly and onwards they have always won trophies. It's just massive and a real honour to have the opportunity of playing for them.”
Charlie Adam has been tipped to steal the show in midfield with Liverpool next season. He has already scored a goal for the Merseyside Reds. It was in the recent 6-3 victory against Malaysia XI.
The ex-Blackpool key player almost landed at Tottenham Hotspur at the end of the January transfer window. However, Charlie Adam’s Spurs deal collapsed as time didn’t allow things to materialize. According to reports, Harry Redknapp’s team missed on the 25-year-old midfielder by 2 minutes in the 11th hour.
