BLACKPOOL hero Charlie Adam insists he can take the Premier League by storm next season.The Rangers flop won FIVE awards at the end-of- season party as the Seasiders celebrated their shock rise to the English top flight. Adam has been the heartbeat of Ian Holloway’s revolution and scored a superb free-kick at Wembley against Cardiff in the 3-2 play-off final win last weekend. But Adam, 24, insists he is not fazed by life among the big boys and reckons he can get better and better.
He said: “Hopefully I will become a better player. It will be tough because there are some world-class players in there but I’m looking forward to it.”
Adam left Ibrox last season after failing to impress Gers boss Walter Smith. And he revealed a devastatingly simple reason for joining Blackpool – they were the only side interested. He added: “I came here because Blackpool were the only team to find the money. They paid the £500,000 and that was it. I had been on loan here and enjoyed it and was more than happy to come here. I’m just glad we have become winners. Nobody will take winning at Wembley away from us.”
And although Pool fans are still partying, Adam has promised that Holloway and his men are ready to roll up their sleeves and do battle.
He said: “It is important to think about it now. It’ll be tough but we’ll have a smile on our faces.” (Daily Star)
