He was shite - at left midfield.

good shout mate .its a pity he never made it as a left winger at us

[dukestreetsoup 69]

He was shite.

Now he is not.

[davekerrthebear 124]

He wasnt worth 14 mil when we sold him abd isnt now pointless thread

[barryh818 7]

I think I'm the only person who rated him. Not as highly as Liverpool admittedly

[dc1872 2]

He was shite.

Now he is not.

This

He had talent, but the comfort zone he had at Rangers ensured he wasn't going to reach his full potential

[Blue corn flakes 1,282]

He always had the talent. Just needed someone to bring it out of him.

Ya some saw that he had potential outside of the left mid.

[lgr1991 303]

Rated him, but understand why we let him go. We had 4 0r 5 players ahead of him at CM at the time

That's a pretty insightful post.

I won't take part in this poll, As I have never thought he was shite

[doddsyRFC 1]

He's done well for himself.

Only a clueless dickhead would not rate Charlie as a special footballer. A class act with a wand of a left peg, wasted at Rangers in a defensive set up. Ran a mock in the Championship, running a mock in the Premiership and now on the verge of moving to Britains second most successful club. Amazing.

Well done Charlie, good luck

[krissg910 110]

agree mate

[trueblue1872 2]

He was shit. But he's improved his game alot and it has paid of.

[JCS 649]

I'm quite content to acknowledge that I was relatively happy to see Charlie Adam leave Rangers. 20/20 hindsight is a wonderful thing!

When he was with us he was overweight, slow and ponderous and rarely put in a good performance - although I admit there were some special moments!

I'm genuinely delighted that he's made a name for himself in the EPL and I hope he goes on to bigger and better things - but lets not kid ourselves the EPL has GONE QUITE MAD and the money being exchanged for average players is ludicrous!

[mithrandir713 8]

He was shit for us.... Otherwise he wouldn't have been pumped! Might have developed into a decent player, but he is definitely not worth the amounts getting flung about. Losing torres and signing Adam, Liverpool are on the up for sure!

[Right_To_Censor 1,951]

i think it pretty much sums up what cousin said about our diet, the fitness coaches at ibrox must really be stupid. i miss his freekicks though

[BlueSuedeSambas 53,788]

To be fair mate this has been done to death now.

The guy had raw talent. Only somebody who's eyes were painted on would fail to see that. His goal against Stuttgart, his free kick against Celtic, his goal from near the half way line against dundee Utd were all examples of this. However my most prominent memory of him was the game up at Inverness that we won one nil with a JCD goal at the death. Most people on here were slating his performance, but I thought he was our best player. He wanted to get on the ball and he was trying to make things happen right until the death. He showed that day that he could have been the man for us, but some people had already made up their minds.

However, by the time he left he wasn't applying himself properly and it was affecting his performances in a negative way. The fact that only Blackpool came in for him when we were desperate to get rid is surely the best example of that.

Does Smith deserve a bit of the blame for not giving him a run in his preffered position? Absolutley.

Did anybody think he would go on to become the player that he has? Absolutely not.

Adam is very much the one that got away. Much like Ferguson would have been had Advocaat not come in, recognised his talents and built a team based on finese and technique rather than organisation and hard work.

[BelgradeBear 27]

He was shite.

Now he is not.

He was very very shite. Now he is good. But now that he's joined another big club we'll see good ol Charlie appear again. Dalglish has made a booboo.
