    He needs to watch the Lallana interview on Saints player...he said that he has never wanted to leave Saints and he hopes to have more kids and they can watch him playing for us in his thirties. :emoticon-0115-inlov

    Well if they can afford them Manure could have Danny Fox and Guly at a push, that's all the talent we have to spare, we need the rest for our own progress.

    I had to scroll a long way down that story to find the cause of your distress. but then you have scroll a fair way down the League Table to find Man Utd these days.

    A consistent joy so far this season has come from being above the Mancs. Long may it continue.

    All the other teams, bar Arse and ManCit, are there to support ManUre didn't you know?

    How much time was devoted to dissecting ManUre's game on MOTD compared to any other side?

    Think Newcastle's rise warrants more attention -- not least for us ;-)

    At the current rate ManUre's home counties support base will be looking elsewhere!

    This has been mentioned. Personally, I'd like the facility back to allow comment on these ill-founded and irresponsible articles. Who is this pundit, or any pundit for that matter, selling players off to other clubs..? Crikey, we've got young Luke Shaw actually making videos telling other clubs not to bother making enquiries because he's not interested.

    It brings me back to the basic question of competition. How on earth are football clubs supposed to overturn the hierarchy, when they have the very media endeavouring to load the dice ever more favourably in the direction of the glamour club hierarchy..?

    Do you think they're on retainers..? It's possible. In the absence of a facility to reply, I can speculate all I want.

    Fortunately, comments by pundits has very little effect on what actually happens. Luke has tweeted about how pleased he was to be on the pitch with 3 friends that he's played with since they were eight. Obviously a happy bunny.....unless someone takes them as a job lot:shocked:

    As a follower of Robbie Savage's media career, I can recall many highlights from the colourful Welshman's TV appearances. My personal favourite is the time when TV producers stood him and Martin Keown pitchside at The Emirates, right in front of boisterous Leeds fans, who pelted him with hot dog sausages and sang about his alleged masturbatory habits throughout his live broadcast. Only time I've ever seen him look rattled, to be fair.

    Robbie Savage is the only person to have blocked me on Twitter, as after a similar article a year or so back I (actually very politely) suggested that it might help if he did some research into the topics he was talking about, and that this would in turn lend him credibility rather than the image of the class clown. Sensitive type is Robbie.


    I say sensitive, I mean twat.

    Steven Gilroy: Man Utd don't need to panic buy, Lallana, Luke Shaw and Ryan Gauld in January. Hummels, Gundogan and Koke in the summer.

    Deluded! And I'm not talking about Hummels and Gundogan. <laugh>

    I don't really see the problem with this. It's not a rumour, it's just who he thinks United should buy. It's flattering if anything.

    Agreed, it shows how far we have come when Man United need a new creative midfielder and a left back and the two players he suggests are Saints players!

    Do these people have any idea of how a football club works? We are having a good season, have a possible chance of Europe, and are obviously not short of the odd buck....just the time to sell your best players including your captain mid-season when you have little chance of a decent replacement. Our players are on contract...they are not tins of baked beans on a shelf at Lidl's.

    Looking at this from a slightly different perspective, the player Lallana would replace in Man U's lineup would obviously be Cleverley, who is far inferior. I wonder if Roy Hodgson is having the same thoughts?

    I do wonder why these pundits bang on continually about the so-called "big" clubs always having to be refreshed from the smaller clubs. From the point of view of the vast majority of football fans in this country, surely it makes sense that there is a constant turnover of clubs moving up through the leagues and getting to the upper echelons for a few years and then dropping down again. Why can't Man U do this like they did 40 years ago?

    I am fairly confident that David Moyes and the Man Utd bored pay little attention to the likes of this Muppet to be honest.

    To be honest, I think it's pretty phenomenal that a pundit is proposing Adam Lallana to be United's messiah this season :grin:

    That would happen if they all had the same amount of money, but why would you go down if you could buy permanent success?
