How much did Spurs have a bid accepted for in January? If we paid £10m for a player who has 12 months left on his deal, plays in a league below us and was only valued at about £7m by us in January, it shows absolute desperation and an inability to find an alternative.
Adam's a decent player, whether we need him after signing Henderson is questionable, especially for £10m, that would be as mad as our other fees spent on British players recently.
Adam is about ten gazillion times more creative than Henderson is. When I've seen JH, he's played right midfield, so I guess you've signed him to plug that gap and Kenny sees Kuyt up front next season vying with Carroll & Suarez.
If I was Liverpool, I'd pay the 10m for Adam, he created so many chances last season for DJ Campbell - he might not have the 'all round' game that folk talk of, but get his left foot on the ball and he'll create opportunities for people. Let Lucas do the tackling for him. If Liverpool had Adam and Gerrard back fit, they'll then have a goal threat from midfield.
