    9m for Lambert?!? That's too good to turn down. That would be a win for us and a win for Lambert. Probably a loss for Liverpool but that's none of my bidness.

    Hate to see Lambert go, and he means a lot to the club and there are things we won't be able to replace about him. There's some risk but I think it's the kind of move you have to make.

    Of course we'll have to see if they spend the funds but IMO, this actually kind of a ballsy ambitious move. It'd be easier to hang on to Lambert to placate the fans as he hasn't asked to go (that we're aware of).

    That's what I was getting at. I really can't see how this is true. Maybe just because I'm so shocked.

    You're not the only one! But that's a hell of a fee!

    If it wasn't for the fact he is such a Saints legend I would piss myself laughing at the £9million fee.

    I think it is based upon money being laid at the bookies...they were forced to suspend betting because someone seemed to know something.

    So we must have a new manager in place, as wasn't it said, that no players would be bought or sold, until the new man comes in?

    Inflating the lambert fee to reduce the Lallana price so Bournemouth get less of a cut?

    It makes business sense, but i still don't think i'd be able to handle him leaving.

    Oh come off it. It's surely fake. No one is going to pay 9 million for Lambert, and the connection to Liverpool is just some lazy prick on twitter I'll bet.

    Can't see this one being true, but if it is I'd be well gutted.

    I don't believe it as the fee isn't high enough.
