    All of the above may be right Fran but right now, it is just your view of those people and their thoughts and wants. No-one knows unless you happen to be best mates with one of the above.

    He's been extremely well paid for years and I doubt the amounts he'd get would be worth the risk.

    @BenSmithBBC: Stalemate in Lallana's proposed move to #LFC. Player wants future sorted before WC. #SaintsFC want to wait.

    Good. Then tell player to button down and ****ing get on with it. Not up to him to dictate that kind of thing.

    Besides, I understood that Adam was unaffected by speculation and transfer dealings while he is on England duty, or so he said. This is a good moment to put that to the test.

    So we want to wait. Not as encouraging as 'we don't want to sell' is it? Suggests we want to see how well he plays at the WC and how much his price will rise.

    Lallana can sort his future now by saying he wants to stay at Southampton.

    Hopefully this board can stay firm over this and make Adam man up and tell the Southampton supporters he doesn't want to be here anymore

    You mentioned "fat brown envelopes" which suggests accepting illicit cash payments, which would be risky.

    Nobody can say for sure but it doesn't really seem like something Cortese would get involved in.

    If he wans to go , he should have to hand in a transfer request IMHO .

    Then it will be clear , the club should still remind him of his current LONG TERM contract .

    If Adam goes I can see others wanting out. Need a new manager quickly to calm things down.

    This latest piece of information is pleasing. As I've said, selling him is not my issue. He wants out, well get lost. Selling him on OUR terms matters a lot - and there is no reason to sell him before the WC. Imagine he was the star of the tournament? You could see his price doubling. And if he isn't? Well, it won't drop.

    Good, we should absolutely call Liverpool's bluff.

    You're not going to impRess Koeman etc by selling your best asset.

    the more adam blackmore tries to indicate that it's the board to blame for lack of communication with the players, the more it sounds like the answers they want and aren't getting are about when they can leave.

    Also things have changed...we are trying to get a new manager in. All half-hearted agreements may be now off. #pleaseGodmakeittrue.
