With Charlie Adam tipped to arrive at Liverpool in the near future, the issue of central midfield will seemingly become a big topic among Reds fans. With Steven Gerrard, Raul Meireles, Jordan Henderson, Alberto Aquilani and perhaps Adam all vying for offensive midfielder spots, it is difficult to see how they all can fit in:
Raul Meireles – With the arrival of Adam seemingly imminent, it has led to speculation that the Portuguese international may depart the club. Reports in Italy suggest that Inter Milan maybe interested in persuading the 28 year old to move to the San Siro. A £14million has been suggested for the player who only arrived from Porto last summer for £12.5million. It has been hinted that age and niggling injuries has persuaded Kenny Dalglish to allow the player to depart. Personally, I hope he doesn’t go, he had a decent first season and found his feet gradually as the season wore on. It takes time to adapt to a new league, and I think it would be unfair to allow the player to go before he is truly allowed to shine.
Alberto Aquilani – His agent speaks daily in newspapers, TV and radio about how the Italian midfielder wants to stay in Italy. It is unlikely he will return to Anfield but there maybe a scenario where he might have to if no Italian club can meet Liverpool’s asking price. Juve manager Antonio Conte is still considering his options, and has yet to make up his mind on Aqua, while both Napoli and AC Milan have reportedly been interested but there has been no sign of movement in attempting to buy the 26 year old.

Charlie Adam is a brilliant left footed midfielder his vision, long passing,free kicks,corner kicks are outstanding, hes just what were missing in the midfield cos when xabi alonso left we lacked so much creativity in the side. I also find it so annoying of the talk of Raul Meireles leaving when we bring Charlie Adam in this week, for a start why would king kenny leave meireles out the team when hes been such an important player for the club. Im pritty confident king kenny will want to sell flops Alberto Aqualini and Christian Poulsen this summer cos they both are’nt good enough for the club plus alberto wants to move back to Italy anyway. YNWA King Kenny We Trust.
