Alberto Aquilani made his 25th appearance of the season for AC Milan on the weekend, coming on
as an 85th minute substitute against Roma. Based on statements from the player's agent, this means
that the automatic transfer clause in his loan deal has now been triggered—Milan get the
midfielder, and Liverpool get around £5M spread over three annual instalments beginning this
summer.
He scores when he wants
It was reminiscent of our last win at Anfield. We played poorly and we still come out on top.
It's the kind of performance that pundits drool over when Manchester United wins this type of
matches. The ability to beat the odds and find that winner despite not being on top of their
game.

Pepe Reina flubbed what should have been a fairly simple stop off a Sergio Aguero drive.
Liverpool dominated possession thereafter but it was City once again going up through Yaya Toure's
header at the half an hour mark.
Gerrard and Craig Bellamy were introduced by Kenny Dalglish after an hour and Liverpool looked
more mobile going forward although they failed to look threatening in the final third once
again.
England right back Glen Johnson's solo effort after collecting a well-placed Charlie Adams' pass in
the 87th gave Liverpool a 2-1 over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday to see the Reds move into
sixth place in the English Premier League. Maxi Rodriguez put Liverpool ahead in the 33rd minute
before half-time substitute Daniel Sturridge [.
There's only two... Charlie Adams
He may not be able to pass a ball onto the proverbial sixpence like our Scottish midfield, but
we reckon this guy is a dead ringer for Charlie Adam in the looks department.

Liverpool's title challenge is still on after they totally outclassed former manager Roy
Hodgson's West Brom at the Hawthorns in the Premier League's evening game with goals from Charlie
Adams from a dubious penalty and Andy Carroll who toe poked home only his fourth Premier League
goal for Liverpool since his multi-million pound January move from Newcastle United.
Steven Gerrard makes a dream comeback from injury with a fantastic free-kick against Manchester
United to give Liverpool a 1-0 lead after Charlie Adams dive to win the initial free-kick.
Luis Suarez can be as petulant as anyone, but just watch how he reacts to a sprinkler
frightening and Charlie Adams taking his ball before Liverpool's controversial Merseyside
derby win over Everton at the week-end.
To say Charlie Adams wanted to get tossed out of this game was an understatement. Two yellows in
the first 30 minutes saw 'pool go down a man and then another sending off for Liverpool in Skrtel
saw Spurs crank up the screws. Modric scored early and then it was all cruise control as Spurs go
on to win 4-0 with a brace from Adebayor.

Not like it really matters to her, but we vote Sophie Anderson goes au natural more often. You
feel us, Kickettes?
Keep in mind that we have an ulterior motive here. The real reason we're showing you the many
sides of Charlie Adams' fiancée is to see where her engagement ring falls in our WAG ring
rankings.
Manchester United's £16m deal to win EVEN MORE free-kicks and penalties - originally posted on
Soccerlens.com
Manchester United's £16m signing Ashley Young brings several key advantages to the team.
When Ferguson realised that you can't buy a successor to Ryan Giggs for 3m (bye bye Obertain),
nor can you force a right-sided winger (Nani), an ageing CAM (Park), a striker (Rooney), an OAP
(Giggs) or a young defender (Fabio) to run up and down the wing and create chance after chance for
United, he splashed the cash for Aston Villa's Ashley Young.

Domestic football will again be here before we all know it. Thrust in the middle of the Silly
Season, it behooves me to add to the silliness and put out some fun queries to ponder and
pontificate upon.

Charlie Adams scored his first goal in a
Liverpool Jersey from the penalty spot against a Malaysian All-Star IX after Andy Carroll was

lead.

Charlie Adams and Charles N'Zogbia: Who will be the saviour?
Russian roulette. Five clubs battle it out to stay up in the Premiership. Birmingham, Blackburn,
Blackpool, Wolves, and Wigan The killer B's vs the killer W's for the phonetically inclined. Wigan
stay or we gonna fall?
The emotional favourite for the neutrals is Blackpool obviously.
Ian Holloway's boys showed no slowing down in their quest for attractive and attacking football
despite their history of throwaway second half displays. In Spurs, they met a much higher priced
mirror image one but with similar defensive liabilities. By the end, Spurs had to satisfy
themselves with Roman Pavlyuchenko's forlorn consololation.
We've decided to add a new category to the site aptly named "Ian Holloway
Watch", he's been a breath of fresh air since Blackpool reached the EPL via the
Play-Offs last Summer, his no bulls**t attitude to both EPL authorities and clubs have been
outrageous, his current stance on midfielder Charlie Adams staying at Bloomfield Road have been as
entertaining as his teams attacking football on the pitch and here's our first installment of "Ian
Holloway watch".
Fernando Torres vs Andy Carroll; Didier Drogba vs Luis Suarez
Fernando Torres and Ryan Babel combined fetched the Reds £56m in transfer fees which left them
almost breaking even with their purchase of Luis Suarez and Andy Carroll at £22.8m and £35m,
respectively. The Reds would have loved to have Charlie Adams but Blackpool's bid of £14m was a
bit too high.
Blackpool midfielder Charlie Adams has failed to get a move to Anfield after
both clubs failed to agree a Transfer fee much too the delight of Blackpool boss Ian Holloway.
