http://www.talksport.co.uk/magazine/features/2012-01-25/future-man-united-january-transfer-targets-championship-including-possible-fergie-signing Go down to number 4. Had to laugh when I read this! 4) ADAM LALLANA Club: Southampton Who's interested? Everyone What does he offer?Theo Walcott's pace with a bit of skill to boot. What's the latest? Team-mate and Championship top marksman, Rickie Lambert, says of Lallana: "He could easily play in the Prem. When he gets the ball things happen. Long may it continue." How much longer is anyone's guess. Southampton will do well to keep hold of their talented attacking midfielder this month. The Saints' saving grace, perhaps, is a healthy league position capable of delivering promotion come May. Likelihood: 6/10
Walcott's pace???..."with a bit of skill to boot",a bit,only a bit? Talksport do come up with some crap articles at time,this one is rubbish aswell.
Must have watched him on fast forward. My summary is that his skill compensates for his lack of true pace.
Other Talksport evaluations: David Connolly - similar to Peter Crouch, but taller. Rahdi Jaidi - lightning quick young talent. Titus Bramble - one of the keenest football minds you've ever encounter.
Lallana runs very languidly with a lot of side motion. I'm sure he could be further coached to improve his pace
