Blackpool boss Holloway: Adam passing in Wilkins class

Blackpool boss Ian Holloway has hailed the passing ability of skipper Charlie Adam.

Holloway says his passing is as good as, if not better than, Ray Wilkins's in his pomp - good enough to land him a move to one of the Big Four.

Holloway, who became friends with Chelsea No.2 Wilkins at QPR, said: "I've played with players who can pass, Ray Wilkins for one. But Charlie can pass it as good as if not better than Ray.

"Someone might make us an offer that we can't turn down and we wouldn't stand in his way. I've told him where I think he can finish, one of the top four teams is the world, which is in this division."

Holloway added: "Ray is one of the salt of the earth geezers. I'm sure Mr Ancelotti would say Ray and his people skills are valuable to him."
