‘Put up or shut up’ on Adam, Pool told

IAN HOLLOWAY has told Liverpool to “put up or shut up” in their pursuit of Charlie Adam.

The Blackpool skipper requested a transfer yesterday morning after it was confirmed Liverpool had received a firm no to their £4 million (€4.7m) offer.

Whilst Adam’s demand has not been turned down, neither has it been accepted on the basis that Liverpool’s offer comes nowhere close to Blackpool’s valuation of a player Holloway feels could be the difference between the Seasiders confounding the odds to remain in the Premier League or dropping straight back into the Championship.
