Carling Cup final post match

[Mostar]

The Gerrard-Adam partnership doesn't work, I was surprised Kenny went with it to be honest.

Both primarily want to attack but have either been told they also have defensive responsibilities and neither knows when to go or when to stay, so often we end up with either both attacking or neither attacking.

I suspect that Adam should be the one sitting deep most of the time, but for some reason I get the impression that Gerrard doesn't trust him to do it properly

They are not complementing each other well.

They both try to occupy the same space and in the process they get into each other way.

Even though finals are great levellers etc, etc, we could afford to go with the eventual lineup because we are the far superior team. Even with sub-par performances we still did more than enough to merit victory. The lack of balance in the midfield is hurting us in our own division againt better (than Cardiff) opposition.

On Adam in particular though, I thought he was really poor all round. The notion he should be relieved of his defensive duties to concentrate on his attacking game is laughable considering that he just isn't a top quality player.

charlie adam was at fault for the first goal when he was five yards head of the midfield line and for the second goal when he let his man get the header off.

he was also at fault when kenny miller ran off him and nearly buried us. nowhere near good enough and its either stevie or him but not both together.

I think several players were culpable for the first goal, but when Miller got the ball Agger had to step up from the box to confront him as the midfield was nowhere.

Yeah, I thought Adam was very poor yesterday, especially given the space and time the midfield were getting on the ball. Gerrard wasn't great either, his shooting boots were definitely left behind but I think playing with Adam cramps his style in a variety of ways. I know who I'd rather have out of the two. As a partnership its not a goer really.

Adam's not a bad player, but for me, not quite at the standard required for us at least as a regular starter.
