Lallana for £15mill... good deal. Lallana for £20mill... this is stretching it a little and adding "those few million extra". Lallana for £25mill... this is silliness and having no plan 'B' for the position so paying way over the odds on the only target. If Southampton aren't willing to budge on a fair price- that's their right... they don't have to sell! No reason to offer silly money when there are other, better, players available for the fee we're now talking. I'd rather get the Shaq, or Sanch- but now we probably can't because we spent big money on a squad player. It's not even a Lambert situation... where, not the player we really wanted... but for the price was a squad player. We're paying a marquee fee for someone who will be used on rotation.
Suarez money to come in we have decided to pay a bit extra Let not crucify Lallana before hes kicked a ball for us lads Southampton fans are very sorry to see him leaving
Legendary Liverpool lolling league; landing Lallana. "Lallana?" lambasts Lucas lethargically! "Lallana?" Luis lashes! 'Las, losing league... Languishing lower!
you are right... our midfield 3 needs this but the fee is the issue so its LFC not the player that deserve a lashing.
its more what we are paying for a squad player doc. that's the price for a marque signing not a player who will be rotated. put it into perspective, he will cost more than Coutinho and Sturridge combined.
Not sure many are slating Lallana. Good a player as he is, hes simply not worth £20m never mind £25m.
^This^ Reading alot of negativity elsewhere on this. £25m is a big fee but lets wait and see what Lallana does for us over the next few years. He may end up justifying such a fee. BR must have really wanted him,an important part of the jigsaw maybe
We got our man that BR wanted. Last Summer I was very much if BR wants him, I trust him but thats now at 70% which is more than 50% still Lallana could be amazing for us or the next Downing (surely not) I think he'll be good and fit in very well and his price tag will be forgotten And at least his surname sounds foreign
