Bewildered Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Joe Batchelor @Joe_Batchelor 33s Lallana: "I got emotional (at the awards) because it's a journey I couldn't have dreamed of but i'm not saying this is the end by any means" Lallana: "There are going to be some decisions to make in the summer and maybe it all hit home a little bit when I was speaking."
SNSUN Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Nabil Hassan @NabilHassan79 Adam Lallana in #saintsfc programme: "I'm ambitious. I want to one day play in Champions League and compete for Premier League title." Well that won't be with us, I guess he'll move eventually but when? Lallana is the one "jewel" I feel we cannot afford to lose this summer, but if his mind is made up to play in the Champions League and challenge for the title, and this is the summer we can get the most money for him, then it'll have to happen. Shaw, Dejan, Morgan, JRod or whoever else is sold can be adequately replaced, but Lallana brings something unique to our team. It'll be a sad day if and when it happens, as we've seen him shine as we rise up the divisions.
Bewildered Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Joe Batchelor @Joe_Batchelor 1m Lallana: "Every fan would realise there is big potential in our team and we have players who can go and play at a higher level."

Ewell Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Watching his Skysports interview, doesn't sound like he's planning to move. Yep exactly what I was thinking. His words came across very well and he indicated that there was a lot of improvement in the team and the team would aim to finish higher next year. He also said the team would all be better for another years Premier League experience. I agree with the above comment about him being the 'Jewel' we cannot afford to lose. If I am honest seeing this interview is the first time in the past few weeks I have seen anything positive that he may well stay. I think the managers position this summer is the key and the players and management team are playing a united but very clever game with the board of directors. They obviously want the board to match their ambition and why not!
St. Neil Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Keown on motd extra was talking like it was a done deal to Liverpool and they were at Anfield talking to Phil Neal asking him how Adam will fit into the team.

nta786 Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 I swear the daily mail and among others have some driven agenda to sell our whole damn squad. This is the latest article on Lallana moving to Liverpool- all cos of the matchday programme. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2625546/Liverpool-target-Adam-Lallana-dreams-playing-Champions-League-football-winning-titles-says-decision-make-Southampton-summer.html So frustrating- ah well I guess, it's never dull being a Saints fan!
Window Cleaner Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Does anyone know why the 25% Bournemouth sell on clause has never been bought out by Saints at some point over the last few years? Why would we do that when the player was expected to stay here forever. No point bunging a shedload of cash at Bournemouth for nothing.
max_saints Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Lallana: I may stay with Southampton http://www.espnfc.com/news/story/_/id/1816830/adam-lallana-stay-southampton?cc=5739 mostly quotes from the matchday programme
Greenridge Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 If he does go to the Pool then part-ex him with Coutinho. They don't need both.
Baird of the land Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Krueger on Saints player hardly filled me with confidence about their desire to retain our players.
OldNick Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Krueger on Saints player hardly filled me with confidence about their desire to retain our players.going to speak to clubs tomorrow I think he said, that could be regarding purchases of course
Dr Who? Posted 11 May, 2014 Author Posted 11 May, 2014 Not long now. Just need the manager to say he is staying and I think most of the rest will stay. I don't want to think of the alternative.
Baird of the land Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 going to speak to clubs tomorrow I think he said, that could be regarding purchases of course I'd have liked a little 'we aim to retain our key players' attitude. Instead there was some waffle about remembering about potential purchases right after he talked about how other clubs are much bigger with money to spend.
OldNick Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 I'd have liked a little 'we aim to retain our key players' attitude. Instead there was some waffle about remembering about potential purchases right after he talked about how other clubs are much bigger with money to spend.It is just common sense and the other bits he has said since being here. He's not bullish about not selling but just replies like a politician. He knows if he says lovely things about the fans and tickles our tummies we will not shout as much if players leave. He is right other clubs are much richer and will swoop if they see a player they want. We need to be cute and get an auction going, if Liverpool swoop and get the deal done quickly it leaves less time for counter offers.
Weston Saint Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 I think Weston Saint who is close to Adam and his family with his silence is telling us that Adam is on his way!!Sadly!!!No it is not! I am just fed up with the numpty posters on here who ruin every thread with the idiotic postings. This is not the site it was. As at 2.30 this afternoon his father has heard of no contact. I think he would know before the rumour merchants don,t you? Will he go? If you were player at the hight of your skill, picked for England and a chance to earn a lot more with a top four club playing Championship League what would you do? I am still fairly confident but would not want to stop him putting his skills to test at a higher level!
Barry Sanchez Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 He was in Woolton on Friday looking at houses I can tell you that much, its a done deal.
Weston Saint Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 He was in Woolton on Friday looking at houses I can tell you that much, its a done deal.You utter prat. He was not.
OldNick Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 You utter prat. He was not. it is a bit of trolling I would have thought
Convict Colony Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 He was in Woolton on Friday looking at houses I can tell you that much, its a done deal. how's your Liverpool burglary ring going baz ? you've not done one of their players houses for a while.
Bearsy Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 No it is not! I am just fed up with the numpty posters on here who ruin every thread with the idiotic postings. This is not the site it was.

S-Clarke Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 He was in Woolton on Friday looking at houses I can tell you that much, its a done deal. Congratulations, you have been officially unveiled as WUM.
Barry Sanchez Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 I hope I can an apology when all this comes out.
The Cat Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Yes he was. So what proof do you have? Because it better be ****ing good if anyone is going to believe it over what Lallana's Dad has said.
derry Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 He was in Woolton on Friday looking at houses I can tell you that much, its a done deal. It's a shame that the Lallana family don't have your sources.
Barry Sanchez Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 So what proof do you have? Because it better be ****ing good if anyone is going to believe it over what Lallana's Dad has said. My mate saw him in Woolton on Friday viewing houses, I **** you not, I am not lying or winding people up, its been an open secret up here for a month at least (ask Pap), I posted it a month ago as well, as per its perceived (it is in a way) as negative and given short shrift.

It would be extremely unlikely at this stage of negotiations.

Weston knows him, lol. How have you not been banned yet? Mong
Appy Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 I think his sister lives in Liverpool. Dating a Tranmere player I believe.
Viking Warrior Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Bs you are getting worse by the day . The minds have got to intervene as your starting to wind up some very good and well balanced posters on here.
Bearsy Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Weston knows him, lol. How have you not been banned yet? Mong Looks like he has Edit: RIP

S-Clarke Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Hopefully the moron is banned for good. Clearly not a saints fan, just hear to wind up. Probably not even a football fan, just one of these very odd beings that only seem to exist on the internet.
The Cat Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Looks like he has Edit: RIP Sadly he'll probably be back under another login soon enough.
DuncanRG Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 He was in Woolton on Friday looking at houses I can tell you that much, its a done deal. Surely the mods don't need any more evidence than this!
Huffton Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Well to get back somewhere near on topic, it looked to me like Adam was waving goodbye on the walk round. I think he's gone.
S-Clarke Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Well to get back somewhere near on topic, it looked to me like Adam was waving goodbye on the walk round. I think he's gone. Every player was waving. Are they all off? You cannot read anything into end of season walk about's. He may well be off, but what happens in the end of season walk round doesn't mean anything.
The Cat Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Well to get back somewhere near on topic, it looked to me like Adam was waving goodbye on the walk round. I think he's gone. Loads of players were waving. On that basis we'll be left with about 3 players from today's squad.
StAndy1970 Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 I thought on Friday he was picking his lad up from nursery. Still what would my brother know. Their kids in same group Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Mallagroth Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 He was in Woolton on Friday looking at houses I can tell you that much, its a done deal. Wow that was a really poor own goal. I'm a bit disappointed in you Baz. Suppose you are gonna have to spunk another fiver aren't you (mods I think this might be a good business model for you if you can track his ip and keep banning him). Guess we will be hearing more from GlasgowSaint now though.
Saint-Beer Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 @talkSAINTS: Krueger on Lallana: "Nothing has occurred that we need to communicate. There will be conversations with clubs. That's part of the business." That can't be good :-(
