Didn't Adam have a season where he scored something like 15+ goals for Blackpool and that made him Ye Shitte Hotte young English midfielder and thus way overhyped?

12 in the league for Blackpool the season before he signed for Liverpool, but he was never Ye Shitte Hotte young English midfielder because a) he's looked 50 years old since he was 12, and b) he's Scottish

Ah my bad - forgot he was Scottish but it's not like I've had as much as the slightest thought about him in forever

I feel like the days of cloggers like Adam or Shelvey being wildly over hyped are over. The PL and the EMNT are both so good now that I think even football journalists and Proper Football Men have learnt what 'good' actually looks like.

His corners and free kicks that season were brilliant, but more importantly he was fantasy football must have seeing as he cost gently caress all and got you a lot of points.

That Blackpool team must have been the most punching above their weight premier league team ever

Yeah, gently caress any footballer who doesn't cloister themselves. They aren't human beings and don't deserve a social life.

They are sitting at a goddamn table watching darts, not attending an orgy in the covid ward.
