This. Lallana was vital to our team.

I'm not sure what your point is. KL obviously didn't want to spend what it took to fulfil Cortese's Champions League dream (£100-200mill min), you can't blame her for that. Cortese jumped ship because he didn't fancy the alternative and left us where we are now. It's pointless moaning unless we have another billionaire lined up willing to lose a few hundred million.

Don't think they wanted him, got Ozil.

I don't think he's a hero, like I said he was the first rat off the ship. But I think he would have shown a bit more steel when dealing with clubs like Liverpool. At the moment we just appear to be bending over and taking it.

Just say no, simples. I have no doubt that Cortese wouldn't have even answered the phone to Liverpool over Lallana.

Anyone who doubts that we are a club in crisis now is living in dreamland. Within the last 6 months or so we have lost our chairman, manager, pretty much all our coaching staff, our captain, best striker and key defender. Our best centre back wants out and now our best midfielder. The spine of our team has been ripped out and we don't know if anyone from chairman down has the talent to run the club and make the right decisions. Finishing 17th next season will be a very good achievement IMO. We are floundering.

The only reason Cortese left is because he knew what is happening now was going to happen, it was inevitable. He was the first rat off the ship.

"Saints have been willing to do business as they believe a fresh wave of young players are ready to come through the ranks and see the coming season as the first in a new five-year plan. Owner Katharina Liebherr insists the club does not have to sell but reckon the likes of young striker Sam Gallagher, midfielder James Ward-Prowse and defender Calum Chambers are the next generation of stars. They see England U19s starlet Matt Targett as a ready-made replacement for Shaw." If that's Reed's cunning plan put your house on relegation.

If he's under contract then we should keep him regardless. We can't rip the spine out of our team and have any hope of staying up IMO.

This is getting ****ing daft now, the board need to nip all this in the bud. If Lallana goes then the rest of the squad need to be told to forget thinking about any move.

Liverpool told a bigger, richer club to 'fark orf' when Suarez wanted to leave and almost won the league. Plenty of clubs do it. you tell the player no, they sulk a bit, then come the new season be professional and carry on performing as normal.

who gives a ****

That would be so ****ing funny.

yeah, like £4mill for our England international striker

****, if Lovren goes now we will be a good bet to go down.

I'm guessing Lallana will go as well, but if we sell any more key player we could be in relegation trouble next year. It's vital we keep Lovren and Schneiderlin.

Wouldn't be a bad idea, especially if Target is up to the job in a year or so's time.

**** me he didn't hang around, must have flew direct to Manchester from Brazil the little c*nt.

bye

I think judging people by what they wear is a bit sad

Schneiderlin starts tnght

Lallana was getting more and more of the ball, I wouldn't be surprised if Woy took him off to save his own embarrassment at the previous two games team selections. I fail to see the point in bringing on Gerrard and Rooney at the end, if the idea was to prepare our young players for the next tournament it makes no sense.

Barcelona or Madrid.

He will probably be at Barcelona or Madrid anyway.

That was f*cking embarrassing, Costa Rica with nothing to play for playing keep-ball and our manager afterwards saying what a great performance it was because we had a couple of chances. Should have hired Redknapp.
