    Thanks. Noted. Shame I missed the last few days discussions he had then as I could have joined in those too.

    I thank you for your critique.

    I have heard absolutely nothing, in quote form, any solid facts, and interviews that say to me Lallana will be leaving in the summer. Every single article and rumour I've read has no quotes whatsoever, from Adam, Southampton, Liverpool or anyone. Yes, it's a possibility, of course. But what I have read are quotes from Adam saying he loves the club and wants to stay. These may have been weeks or even months ago, but he should have to say it every day for people to believe it.

    Me neither, but his awards speech didn't half sound like a goodbye. I reckon MP & the squad already know what the board has planned, & it may not fit their aspirations.

    Bit late to the party but I've finally gotten round to watching Adam's award speech, I really didn't get anything bad from it. He definitely seemed emotional but he said he "wanted to keep progressing with the club" and if he'd already agreed a move (as is being reported) I don't think he'd have said that.

    I say this as someone who was in complete denial about Adam leaving about a month ago but who is sadly coming round to the idea that it may well happen. (and one of the most pessimistic people I know).

    It's at 1:54:00 for anyone who hasn't seen it.

    When I heard it live it worried me, but have since listened a couple of times and sounds fine.

    I think it's because he choked up a bit like someone would do on a farewell speech, but if you think of it like a wedding speech it sounds much better! :emoticon-0115-inlov

    The incredible thing about this situation to me is that everyone appears to want the same thing. That's for the club to progress

    I don't doubt that, but the thing about ambition is, you have to show it as well as want it.

    Some fans seem to think that just saying you want to be in the Champions league shows more ambition than actually investing money and trying to improve the club.

    And Ralph Krueger keeps repeating that he wants to do things rather than promise things, which is fine with me.

    According to Twitter Scouse aren't offering a straight cash deal, but part exchange with two players, an injury prone ageing left back and a winger who has drink driving conviction, doesn't sound a great deal to me?

    Hardly a serious offer...in fact I am so offended, I vote we refuse to deal.

    It's kind of a smart move in that it evades the need to pay anything to Bournemouth, but yeah, no thanks.

    Bet it doesn't. Each player would have a nominal value and Bournemouth's share would be based on that. Bet they are dying for us to sell him...they've waited long enough.
