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.
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.

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.
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.
F**k off before the Season has even started.And which f**king 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**king more.Soft!Hurry up and get back soon Adam.
Only possitive thing here is that it can speed up transfer activity.
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.
hmm,could put this in a few diffeent hreads.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nR0lOtdvqyg
