SNSUN Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Liverpool are letting Lallana go in the summer on a free transfer. So simple question, would you have him back here? It’s a no from me. West Ham signing written all over him.
BARCELONASAINT Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 no, not a chance in hell would i welcome him back
darren2 Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 I'd see him back if he was better than the other options. Can't be bothered to hold grudges.
the saint in winchester Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Yes. But it won't happen. His wage expectation would be out of our budget, so yes, Wet Spam to accommodate him.
shurlock Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Yes, I’ll drive up there and bring him back myself.
Mikey88 Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Would he improve the squad? Yes. Does he have a high work rate that fits our style? Yes. Would he add needed creativity? Yes. There would be a few moaning voices at first but if he put in a few good performances they would soon die down.
The Kraken Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Injuries would be my only concern (except for cost, but it’s not my money so meh). If he were here now he’d walk into this side.
ericb Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Would rather see him crash his car on the M3 to be honest
hypochondriac Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Would rather see him crash his car on the M3 to be honestLol.
Matthew Le God Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 "Free" is misleading He'd require a huge multi million signing on fee, large agent fee and probably wages upwards of £100k per week
jamesa Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Irrespective of it being Lallana, a 30 + year old with history of injuries doesn't fit our model. Was a great player for us before, acted like a pr*ck and burnt his bridges to be honest. Was booed (by me included) when he warmed up against us at Liverpool a couple of weeks ago too. I wouldn't want him back.
wadesmith Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 If we can get him on a pay as you play deal then definitely.
Chez Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 "I'll never play for the club again" Nivea boy, 2014.
Useful Idiot Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Badge kissing, Liverpool shirt signing, cringy 'thank you' advert writing judas tosser. No way in hell would I want the injury prone little rat back at Saints.
Matthew Le God Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 If we can get him on a pay as you play deal then definitely. How many examples of Premier League players agreeing to a pay as you play deal can you name? It doesn't happen
davefoggy Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 No, no, no. I would boycott St Marys if that idiot turned up in a Saints shirt again. But it will never happen. Non story
egg Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Yes. Good player who would improve us. I'm not fussed about how he left and frankly can understand why he wanted a move and why he would have got the hump if he was denied one.

OttawaSaint Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 "Free" is misleading He'd require a huge multi million signing on fee, large agent fee and probably wages upwards of £100k per week Damn! There was me thinking it meant he'd cost nothing and play for free. Thanks for demystifying this really intricate concept for me.
OttawaSaint Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Yes - but only if Ralph wants him. Ralph wants him in his big strong arms. Adam loves that!
LGTL Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 No. Horrible rat **** never welcome back here in any capacity.

It doesn't happen Matt Jansen, Blackburn. https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11676/2362547/jansen-on-verge-of-rovers-exit ”Jansen signed a pay-as-you-play contract last summer but has failed to force his way into Hughes's first team reckoning this season” (might have been Championship though, not sure) edit, no, it was Premier League apparently.

Saint Billy Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 No thanks, let Leicester pay his sick pay.
hasper57saint Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Not for me thanks. He burnt his bridges when he left and sold his soul to Liverpool. Too injury prone for Ralph anyway.
Tamesaint Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Whatever Ralf wants....but I don't think that a 31 year old injury prone Judas would fit the squad that he is trying to put together.
Toadhall Saint Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Damn! There was me thinking it meant he'd cost nothing and play for free. Thanks for demystifying this really intricate concept for me. [emoji23]
Baird of the land Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 No, burnt his bridges. Wouldn’t want to be his retirement home.
Lighthouse Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Not for me. Old, injured, only here for a pay cheque. Not been consistently decent for years.
beatlesaint Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Not for me. Old, injured, only here for a pay cheque. Not been consistently decent for years. no he hasn’t been decent for a fair while now. In fact he could easily be put in the “should never of left Southampton” pigeon hole. ok he’s got some medals but they are hollow rewards, he’s played a very minor part in anything they’ve won, even cost them a League Cup with a missed penalty a few years back. He is currently the very definition of squad player, playing a bit part here and there. We had his best football days.
JRM Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 No obviously not. He's off to join Brendan Rodgers at Leicester anyway.
doddisalegend Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 **** off. I want us to get some decent defenders next summer not some aging has been, midfielder. Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk

Fookwit Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 Would love to see him back as he is still far better than what we currently have. Great player and one of the best I’ve seen at Saints and alongside Lambert etc responsible for Saints getting back to the top flight. Won’t happen though as he will join a club with ambition and much higher wages than Saints.
Dellman Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 People who are saying yes, yes, must think he is still as good as when he played here..No, no he is near the end of his career, he is injury prone and he has an inflated opinion of himself which means he will be looking for a big pay day. Ralph looks for the opposite: young, eager with all to prove

Danny Ings was injury prone for longer periods of his Liverpool career but has come good again at Saints.
austsaint Posted 19 February, 2020 Posted 19 February, 2020 "I'll never play for the club again" Nivea boy, 2014. And he deserves his wish. Let him cuddle up to Brendan again.
