Charlie Adam: 'Liverpool can challenge'

Charlie Adam believes that Liverpool have built a squad that is capable of challenging for top honours.

The 25-year-old, who joined Liverpool from Blackpool earlier this summer, is hopeful of winning trophies at Anfield.

"I genuinely believe we have a squad here that's capable of challenging," Adam told The Guardian.

"We want to get back winning things, we owe the Liverpool supporters that."

The midfielder missed out on a move to Liverpool in January after Blackpool blocked the transfer.

Blackpool went on to be relegated from the Premier League and Adam eventually secured a £7m move to Liverpool.

"I want to win trophies, I wouldn't have signed for Liverpool if I didn't think I could do that here," Adam added.

Liverpool have been busy in the transfer market this summer as Reds boss Kenny Dalglish has brought in Adam, Stewart Downing and Luis Enrique.
