Good player but averages 13 starts a season for the last 3 seasons. Unless he's turned the corner on fitness issues then that is quite a gamble to take on.

HAsn't he been pretty much fit for two years, but just couldn't get in the squad, hence wanting to move on so he can actually play football? I'm not sure he's the right answer, but I think looking at his record over the past three years is a bit unfair given he hasn't been given much of a chance

If he does sign then we'll have beaten Leicester to the ex England International's signature. I'd say that would be a bit of a coup. If he can keep fit he would definitely add something to the squad.
May be the end for Gross.
Still need a striker.

Can't see us smashing our wage structure for a thirty-something sick note that I'm doubtful would want to come here anyway.

Smoking the funny stuff or one pint to many!

Nope, neither. Fringe top team players is the place we need to be looking, not scraps picked up from relegated sides; Mooy for example hasn't exactly transformed our fortunes, has he? Quality not quantity; one player, not three or four European lower league punts. Plus our own youngsters coming through (ffs, we've paid millions for some of them!)

Third division club looking for a lucky break isn't us any more.

Not a fair stat as he’s not been selected often when fit.

But i do find bookies odds on players moving complete pie on the sky. 1/4 isn’t saying much - if it was 1/25 there’d be a good chance. A few small limited stakes bets move the whole market in case there’s insiders.

Adam Lallana

I really doubt we are after Lallana. Would be happy with him joining if we are, but at his age and with his injury record, he doesn't seem like the kind of player we would go for.

Maybe we think he can capture form like another ex-Liverpool sick note has at Stains?

Potter likes a versatile player. You don’t get much more versatile than Adam:

Can't help thinking that Southampton may just take this one.
