Adam Lallana

As much as I really rate Pascal, the signing of Lallana could suggest that he'll be moving on this summer.

Exactly that [emoji106] or Propper.

I’ve long felt there’s going to be a lot of outgoings next couple of seasons as GP aligns the squad to his style. Fan clubs and poster boys better buckle up!

The silence on this is deafening.

At 32 and out of contract he will be looking for a decent last contract, regular game time and perhaps has one eye on transition into life after playing. If we can make the wages work (accepting without a fee it is likely to break our existing structure) then can see us ticking a lot of boxes for him.

Murray, Barnes, Wood ? Dunk ?

Dale Stephens was an unused sub for Southampton that day.

Just do a search for Adam Lallana

"He deserves better than Brighton tbh he’d start for about 12 teams"
"he’s too good for brighton wtf?"
"He’s better than that"
"Christ, Chris smalling and Ashley young doing well at inter and to read timelines saying Burnley and Brighton etc are in the running is a joke. Leicester at least."
"Psg
Porto
Sevilla
Leeds
Sheff Utd
Leicester
Wolves
Inter
Juve

All better options that bloody Brighton"

"That’s probably the one of the worst two clubs he could go for as well as Burnley that we know are in the Prem"

etc, etc


AND

"1st dabs on ben white then?"
"sweaten the ben white deal, then"
"nice gesture from us now give us Ben white"
"Sweeten them up so we can get White!"

etc, etc

I wouldn’t trust a single thing online from Liverpool fans. On NSC most people on this site are also normally to be found in seats at the Amex and various away ends. Most Liverpool fans online are clueless Trevor from Essex types who couldn’t find Anfield with a satnav

If we can get him on a good value deal maybe for a year or two it’s a no brainer.
If we bend over and give him a long deal into his mid-30s And break our wage structure, it’s a massive gamble.
Given his injury record, He’s not worth going all in for.

I hope we don't have too many "Must match highest earner" contracts anymore.



Ashworth has been working on this since January. I think wages would have been sounded out in week 1.

He's coming (if he's coming) on a free - no need to break the wage structure. The lump sum he'll get for signing on will more than make up for the reduction in his weekly earnings.

Anymore of a gamble than signing someone new? For illustration £85k a week on 3 year deal would be equivalent to the fee we paid for Izquierdo and that’s before we overlay his wages and this for someone we probably won’t see in a Brighton shirt again.

Out of contract I can’t see the player taking anything less than something that will see him through until 35 and can see others taking a punt if we wont break our wage structure.

Adam Lallana

I’m still concerned about his injury record, and he seems to be another slow, creative midfield types we have already (Gross, Mooy).

I have no doubts of his talent and class however. Actually quite heartened by Liverpool fans comments, shows what an impact he’s had at the club both on and off the pitch.

Ashworth has a plan it seems, I’m backing him.

He’s not slow anyway but away from actual pace, one of our biggest problems is that our current players can be really ponderous on the ball which when we’re in transition and trying to break, has been a regular issue this season.

The way Potter players, we need players with quick feet on the ball as well as quick brains and Lallana has both of these assets.

Potentially excellent, really exciting signing and a (cliche alert) statement of intent. When was the last time we signed a player from the current champions of this country, let alone Europe?!

I see ITK is now actually "stating the bleeding obvious".

Wednesday, 3 year deal

I don’t think we need to worry about competition from MASSIVE

 

[chaileyjem]

Here's that 2011 line up

 

[Icy Gull]

I did not know that Stephens had played for Saints until today

 

[Muhammad - I’m hard - Bruce Lee]

I thought that as I posted

 

[chaileyjem]

He was on loan from Oldham but injured after a handful of games.
He joined Charlton the summer after that Albion/Saints game.

 

[Goldstone1976]

Definitely worth the risk in my view - sign him up. He’s unlikely to directly improve our ‘goals for’ tally though - 1 in 43 over the last 3 seasons. Might well get a decent number of assists though. Quality player.

Dean Hammond there as well.

I have his shorts.

 

[Change at Barnham]

Sorry and this isn't a dig at you BG, but why do people start threads on people we are not going to sign?

Shall I start one on Messi, as we're not going to sign him, either?

Any planes on their way to Biggin Hill from Barcelona?
