Bruce Rioch and Alan Hinton would have been horrified. angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott129 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 https://www.instagram.com/reel/C5vN7WktX02/?igsh=dnZndG5vcjRuOTFm You can tell he loves it here, smiling at the 'sign him up' chants. Player power is absolutely huge these days - let him kick up a fuss at Cardiff, put some decent money on the table, and I'm sure we'll get it done. It's either that or he leaves them for free at the end of next season. EtoileSportiveDeDerby, SKRam, Mimester and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomsdubs Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Good defensive midfielder but I question his technical ability at Champ level, won't be playing against free transfer from lower league midfield setups there. RoyMac5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't necessarily need it in the right balance of a midfield. Currently, he would be the only one I'd consider playing and every one else would be new. Need a player who can cover ground and be as aggressive as he is whether it's him or not. Win it, cover spaces, give it simple. Warne ain't as daft as he sounds though, if we can't keep Adams, he will have ideas of alternatives. and you can guarantee they would be a similar athlete.

This was basically my opinion. He'd be useful if he had more technical and forward playing options around him at the next level that he could give the ball on to.

MadAmster Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Adams, Gambian international. He's not an idiakez on the ball, far from it. However, he wins more ball back than Idi did. The lad's a ball winner and he then gives it to a ball player. On top of that, he's not exactly useless as his recent goal showed that he has good ball control. ck-, Crewton, Comrade 86 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhere did I post that the two played the same role. Technically, he's not in Idi's League. Physically, the reverse is true. It's only occasionally you'll get a DM who is also technically gifted. GT was one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's cast our minds back to when everyone thought John Eustace was crap and didn't offer anything to the side. Then Mac 1 comes in and he's the most important cog in the machine. Nobody is asking Ebou to be Zidane, but for what he's being asked do he's very good at. Ever since Warne came in we've struggled in midfield to pick up scrappy 2nd balls and break up the opposition's play, he's tried Bird, Hourihane, Thompson, Fornah & Smith, and none of them have done it anywhere near as good as Adams. It's also very hard to coach into a player. angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
