david in sweden Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 Premiership here we come. Get in. Lallana = The MLT of the 21st Century. Probably. I'd like to think so , especially if he's still here when this contract runs out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patred44 Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 Bet that's upset some at Bo'mouth.. they were hoping for a cut! Sends a message to all clubs that were no longer going to have our youngsters plundered, unless we want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitzhugh Fella Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 I woke up this morning thinking bout time he signed, came on here and saw he had. This is good news indeed! A couple of good signings and even I will start to dream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toomer Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 Just the sort of news to give everyone a lift before todays game also sends out a message to other clubs that we do not intend to sell our best young players (Oxo take note) also any potential signings that we are looking at will see this as a sign of intent.

musesaint Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 Adam Lallana Living Deity.....Fact! The new Le Tiss??? .....How long has it been since we had a player of his class who turned down other offers because he WANTED to stay at the club????

SO16_Saint Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 Fan-bl**dy-tastic Captain material in the making too i reckon from how NA was talking. Shows real intent from the chairman and will possibly help attract our transfer targets better. Now let's have a good win today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farawaysaint Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 In the past I would worry that this big name signing might be to distract us from Oxo leaving, hope that the new management doesn't operate like that Lallana signing is of course fantastic news, viva Lallana!

Tamesaint Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 Finally, we have a wise scouting network, up & coming manager & a chairman that realises the steps for success & owners supporting our dream. Not rocket science but when absolute imbeciles steer your ship, we've seen what can happen. Thank Markus he rid us of that cherry cheeked tosser! Couldn't agree more. Lowe gave a 5 year contract to Tommy Forecast . NC gives 4 and a half years to La God. Says it all really!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ottery st mary Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 About to set off for the game and thought a quick look on the forum... Great news..excellent start to the day...

OldNick Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 Couldn't agree more. Lowe gave a 5 year contract to Tommy Forecast . NC gives 4 and a half years to La God. Says it all really!! of course it could be a clever business move. All of a sudden a player who could walk for nothing in the summer will have to be prized away for big bucks if anyone wants him. The club win both ways, we get a good player who can settle and if we get a fantastic offer there is a good payday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Um Bongo Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 4 & 1/2 years??? Blimey, fair play to the lad. I'm sure there will be some clauses in there, but nice to see someone commit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krissyboy31 Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 This is magnificent news. I did fear we could lose Adam because of the amount of clubs sniffing around. At least now with a 4 1/2 year contract, anybody wanting to buy him (if the rest of the 5 year plan goes pear-shaped) will have to pay top dollar for him.

Weston Saint Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 I have repeatedly said on here that Lallana wanted to play for Saints and was not worried about the lack of a contract offer. He knew the right offer wold be made and so it has. Never worried about the so called ITK's saying otherwise. That is not what the family were saying to me. Adam has a good agent who is looking after him the right way and has a fantastic family who he listens to. Now very important that we get promotion so that Adam can demonstrate his talent on a higher stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabrone Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 That's the best signing so far and hopefully will pursuade other players (AoC) to stay put. Shows that we are serious about moving onwards and upwards. Well done to all involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 8 January, 2011 Share Posted 8 January, 2011 Tremendous news,and a great 'statement', the prospect of AL leaving in the next four weeks would have left us motally and psycologically wounded for the promotion surge ahead. Great news! I love watching Adam turn oppostion players inside out on the pitch (having said that my 9 year olds opinion of him has changed when he read that Adam prefers to read a book than play fifa11:lol:) My feelings of joy are only slightly tempered by the fact that a contract doesn't mean he won't leave if the right offer comes in. At least now anyone who wants him will have to part with a lot of money. That of course is true,but is likely to be influenced by our own progress and as you say we should (depending on the clause in his contract) be able to negotiate for a better fee. Also, like the fact its another 11.26PM exclusive on the Saints site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
