Adam Lallana (End of contract, BHA)

To be honest, I have a unique view on this. Players like Suarez, Coutinho... etc world class players start every game. Lallana is good but not world class and just because he had a good season last year, doesn't mean this year will be the same. I remember Lucas Levia, Henderson, Can etc.. have long spells where they are great then longs spells where they are lacklustre. It wouldn't surprise me if Lallana had these ups and downs too. Gini is a different style player and you are right, he can't play exactly the same game as Lallana can but Gini can do things Lallana can't also. They both add an extra option. Coutinho is a different kettle of fish though. I think he can do anything Lallana can. Gini would have been a bigger blow in my opinion despite Lallana being ahead of him on the team sheet because we are short on that type of player. If we had signed Kieta, it would have been a different matter. Still a bad loss though.

The squad is thinner that kate moss"s waist and lallana was the player who adapted to Jürgen's methods perfectly , it is a big blow

Fucksticks

Adam is a nice play maker, I will certainly give you that. However, all the other players outside of Gini bring things we need to the pitch that Adam doesn't. Phil will play the same way Adam does but better and with more add on's. Henderson brings smart passing and physicality to the pitch and Can brings size and physicality while also being able to push the ball forward and pull up from outside the box. Adam is a great squad player and an ideal sub. In some packages he will start when healthy, but for the most part his time of starting is coming to its end, especially if we add quality depth to the positions. I bet we sell him next window, I think he has new contract kick or something that would help us move him. (Pure speculation on that last part)

I don't think you understand football very well. I'm done here.

Adam, your taking this to personal. First off I didn't know it was you. Secondly, this is just one man's bar stool opinion. Nothing more

sh*t sh*t news. Always the same isn't it? Just when you think you can have a clear shot before having to go through this sh*t.

F**k, don't think some realise just how good he's been for us all last year and in pre-season. Going to be a big loss.

Could give someone a chance but this is nothing but a blow for us, perfect for that position and no real like-for-like in the squad.

Hendo's fault apparently, he was practicing penalties

Cynically could we look at it as now a definite reason why we can't sell Coutinho!!

Definitely.

We'd be absolute loons to sell Coutinho unless someone better was coming in and I just don't see that being too likely.

Reminds me of when Athletico cancelled Greizeman sale because of transfer ban. Barca should really be going after Ozil. His contract finishes in one year and he won't sign a new one. He may even go on a free. I would take Ozil on a free for sure. Arsenal would be mad to not sell him out of the PL while they have control where he goes. Actually, I reckon we should be moving in for him like Arsenal did Suarez. Throw in a bid for Ozil now might even spark over clubs into a bidding war.

F**k off before the Season has even started.

And which F***ing person's thigh takes up to 3 months to get better?

An AFL Aussie Rules Footballer would be back in 2 weeks and they run so much F***ing more.

Soft!



Hurry up and get back soon Adam.

Sounds like a tear to me mate, as you say it's rare for a thigh injury to be a prolonged one.

Phil moving back will help but cant do that for 5 games in 15 days. I think we might have to try a back 3 in Germany so that we have bodies to play in the palace game.

But here is the fun fact - we are stretched at the back as well !! I cant help but laugh-cry at our summer strategy

...... sigh. 😪

Only possitive thing here is that it can speed up transfer activity.

Yea you'd think.

No problem with Lallana injury. We have Kevin Stewart, err Lucas Leiva, err Milner.     

It looks bad , a fail deal of Keita  ,we have to wait  on the VVD deal I don't  know for how long  or it will  not  even happen, we might  lose  Coutinho and Lallana is out of the team for two months.

We F**k if can or Henderson get injuries so light weight in midfield is that hard get one more good midfielder in or we going play James milner their he F**k now no pace

Milner looks knackered even in pre season.

Milner always looks knackered, but it's just his red face from exertion.

He's well known for being one of the fittest players in the league.

hmm,could put this in a few diffeent hreads.
