Charlie Adam’s agent has defended the Liverpool midfielder after he was labelled a “coward” by Tottenham winger Gareth Bale.

Bale was left on crutches at the weekend following a bad tackle from Adam during the 0-0 draw between the two sides in Baltimore, Maryland.

“It doesn’t warrant a reply because everyone knows Charlie is not that type of player,” said Adam’s representative, Kenny Moyes. “Everyone in football knows he has no malice or anything like that in him.

“For someone to have a go like that is outrageous. It was schoolboyish for them to come out and say that.”
