Adam Hammill (Liverpool -> Barnsley -> Wolves)

My Mates a Barnsley supporter, he says hes been quality and the only criticism he has is he can be greedy and shoot when there is a better ball on. He is also resigned to the fact of losing him in January

Running the game at Ipswich by all accounts

Premier league standard no doubt and we let him go 

He scored again at the weekend to secure a 1-0 win over Portsmouth.

Bet me to it Debs

Im repeating myself over and over but its a fooking joke we let this lad go. I actually wonder what the point of having a youth system is at Liverpool as even those clearly good enough dont get a sniff. Kelly is good enough but is only covering injuries and playing cup games. Dont get me started on Pacheco. And then we sell the likes of Hammill and Nemeth. Joke

oh and add to the fact his club arent exactly the best in the division so before Im told hes at a lower level yeah he is but hes doing it week in week out against stronger sides then his own

Didn't we sell him for something ridiculous like 500k?

For me, he's one that got away. Not world class by any stretch (the reason why we sell so many youngster too early is because they're not as good as Gerrard) but he would of done a better job on the right wing than Josemi, Kromkamp, Nunez, Pennant, El Zhar did and they all got chances on the right side of midfield while Adam was either in the reserves or on some loan spell.

He'd also of done better on the left, his better side in my opinion, than the likes of Kewell, Riera, Gonzalez, Dossena, Aurelio, Leto did. Again, they were given plenty of chances on our left while Adam wasn't. I'd rather see him coming off the bench this season than Jovanovich or Babel put it that way.

Excellent post DLS. Our young lads have to be given a chance and a 'proper' chance at that.

Can't belive we let this lad go, if he had been given a go he could have been fantastic.

The one that got away for sure.

And the horrible thing is we didn't even leard from this with the loss of Lauri and then the treatment of Pacheco.

Makes it all the more annoying when we need a decent left sided player mate.

Yeah fair enough he's playing in the a lower division and not in a particularly good side but he makes things happen for himself.  Living in Barnsley he's making a name for himself in these parts and there are a number of EPL teams following his progress.

And Hodgson, will probably want to buy him back

Wouldn't be surprised to see Blackpool go in for him since he spent some time on loan there a few years back, they'll know all about him.

Yeah Blackpool seem to be the favourites Billy but when he was interviewed on our local BBC news at weekend he said he is happy where he is although his long term ambition is to play in the EPL.

Its annoying that we appear to have missed out on a decent young player but sometimes for the sake of their career you have to let them leave. He wouldn't have played anywhere near as much had he stayed and who knows, maybe the disappointment of being sold by liverpool has spurred him on???

Fair play to the lad.

This

Noticed that he can become over confident and it becomes the Adam Hammill show, but it wouldn't if he were at Liverpool amongst other great players, easily good enough for the premier league though a lower to mid table club will snap him up soon I feel.

Will be quality for Blackpool if/when they sign him. Think he will easily step up into their system and style of play.

Football League show has just done a feature on him, looks good. He's been very good for them this season.

Did he score yesterday?

Did he score yesterday?

No but hit the post. Star man this season for them, as was said above, they did a feature on him on BBC a while ago and the fans love him. Shame we let him go, i always rated him.

Scored today.

8 goals this season

Quality player.

Doing well for Barnsly would haved liked to see him get his chance but eh...

Irony is before I posted this topic was in between "Top 10 potential in the world" and "Abdel Tarbatt" Fook me this lad was here for free better then our pal at QPR and potentilly as good as names on that list. Jaysus 

Blackpool lodged 500k bid for him.
F**k!
