    Who saw it? Yesterday. Kelvin Smashes it high and fast into watfords half. Surely a useless powerful ball? NO. Adam Lallana with a piece of skill that brought a tear to my eye took it out of the sky with one touch and it was COMPLETELY under his control.
    Beautiful.
    Anyone agree or see it?
    OR HAVE FOOTAGE OF IT!?

    Fair play to Kelvin who often gets knocked for his kicking, but Lallana called for it and the rest was just breathtaking. When you watch professional football you want to see individual skill that you as the humble spectator couldn't do yourself down the park.

    I remember last season though I don't recall the oppo that Lallana took a goal kick down coming over his shoulder whilst on the run which was even better.

    Also deserving of a thread was that team move which the keeper stopped from Chaplow and rightly got a standing ovation from the crowd. Must have been 15 to 20 passes and one delightful 60 yard cross field from I think Fonte to Guly.

    the quality of football in the entire second half was breath-taking at times

    Also the Guly run and low cross Lambo dummy and Lallana drive the almost shattered the woodwork. The breathtaking moves when Chaplow was denied by the post and the the keeper respectivly.There were some sublime moments yesterday . What with the weather we should really have been wearing yellow as it truly was like watching Brazil [when they were good of course]. Apoligies to Frazer for not mentioning his pitch length run and drive brilliantly saved by there keeper. At the moment we are getting the best value for money home perfomances than any club in the country including Manure. Long may it continue

    I am just waiting for the extended highlights on player. The match highlights miss so much of the fine play that didn't directly lead to a goal. Saturday will live long in the memory!

    Lallana is good enough to play in the Premier League it's as simple as that, he has undeniable ability

    I stood up and applauded. It was not far infront of me. I said elsewhere, that was worth the ST price alone. I do hope it doesn't get posted anywhere; I don't want any premier league managers seeing it.

    Awesome, awesome piece of skill.
