[Albion] Adam Lallana

[Kalimantan Gull]

Now played more premier league minutes this season than he did for Liverpool over the past three seasons combined.

If he appears in each of our last nine games that will be his most premier league appearances since 2013-14.

 

[Change at Barnham]

Once again pure class.
Another 90 minutes under his belt. If Adam can maintain his fitness for the majority of next season he will become one of the most astute signings we've ever made.

The guy is the incredible conductor of our Orchestra.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

And have you noticed that other players seem to be playing more Lallana-type passes (hold it a second, then pass the ball accurately in an unexpected direction to a BHA player in space between 10-15 meters away). Learning from watching and training with him or coincidence?

* which may have made Maupay's mis-passes last night stand out even more, because he did all of the above, but so often to a space not to a BHA player.

Don’t forget the ‘full kit wanker’ BHA gloves. Absolute legend and secure enough in himself not to give a crap about his self-image wearing those things!

Legend? Reportedly on a cushy 70k a week for 3 years. So far 1 goal, 1 assist.

But he wears gloves and has looked quite good for the last few games.

Legend.

Nice interview with Lallana on this podcast. He seems very settled and committed to the project. Brighton stuff is in the first half:

Sánchez wears gloves too and hasn't scored any goals. Fancy a pop at him while you're at it?

I read that as having a pop at people's use of the word "legend". And let's face it, Lallana isn't one. Well, not here anyway.

Indeed. Long way to go yet. He's been good of late but i don't think that gives legend status!

I gave up after two minutes of that, it was like Arsenal TV. Know what I'm saying blud?

Exactly - along way from it IMO......... but then I don’t think Vicente is either.

Slightly O/T, but he talks well and I like his honesty, he especially highlighted poor decision making Monday which was rife throughout the team including him.

If you get passed the first two mins, it's ok!

Always good to hear someone on the inside talk about the club in such glowing terms.

 

[Change at Barnham]

Thanks for sharing the video. It is well worth a listen with about 23 mins talking about his experience of joining and playing for Brighton.

You need to listen from 2min30secs until 25min30secs for the Brighton stuff. After that it's predominantly Liverpool.

Adam's clearly happy with his decision to move to the Albion and is very impressed with Potter (so much so that he's even wearing a Potter baseball cap).
Dan Ashworth is highly regarded by him and one of the main reasons for having the confidence to join.
Lot's of time is spent chatting with 'football nut and 'top top player' Pascal Gross (Bayern Munich fan).
Jason Steele (who lives in the flat downstairs) has spoken to him about the continued improvement in quality of the squad, and Lallana thinks it may be a couple of years more until they get to somewhere near to where they want to be.

I found Adebayo Akinfenwa a bit irritating at times but I'm sure he's new to media and will eventually learn to listen more and not interrupt the guest with his 'bantz' (but that's probably because I'm an old fart).

It's worth getting a cuppa and having a listen

Thanks for putting that here. A good and really positive listen. It's easy to imagine from that what a positive influence he must have on the dressing room.

 

[dazzer6666]

Playing well, absolutely makes us tick and clearly influential about the place, and seems like a very decent bloke. Legend though ? Not yet.....two more seasons of what we’ve seen recently and he’ll be up there with he best we’ve had but too early for ‘legend’. Bloody good player though.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Indeed.

That's one of the worst stories I've seen in ages. I'm not saying it's not true, but there's next to no actual detail apart from an ex-ref giving his opinion! And what's the context? I know it was three years ago, but it seems a bit random to have a story specifically about about a player's attitude...

 

[Easy 10]

Smooth on the ball and uses it intelligently.

Just a shame he can't shoot for toffee.

 

[brighton_tom]

I wonder if this summer there'll be a bit of a 'lallana effect' in persuading new signings to join the club. If Champions League winning, premier league winning Adam Lallana is there then it must be good, they might think..

Maybe.......if the money’s right.

I wonder if GP could hypnotise him (which i think is what emotional intelligence is all about) into making Lallana think he isn't shooting, he's just playing a firm pass to the feet of someone standing 6 inches inside the post.

He'd make it every time
