Oh dear.......

He ain't that young though is he. He's 25 and nearing his prime. He's given us plenty of years of loyal service and already been part of something special. Maybe its time for him to go to the fabled 'next level'?

What are you on about? The other side of this argument is that as an established premier league player and breaking into the England squad if he values his football career he'd want to play at the best possible level, with the biggest club and have a shot at winning trophies.

That's 5% more than he's got right now and if he joined them in January he'd get it this season as well as a guaranteed place on the plane to Brazil

It's a very unfunny joke, although I did find the comment about imagining the look on one of the 'PC brigades' face when they read it funny. I can imagine some of the ones on here 'outraged' when they see it and can't hit 'reply to thread' quick enough to express their disgust. Its done exactly what the intention of it was, has it not?

Of course there is no middle ground. If I was a saints fan and a professional footballer that had given my club great service for a few years and Man United wanted to sign me I'd be very grateful for having the honour of playing for my club, but as some one that was ambitious and wanted to win things and play at the top level I'd be straight up the m6.

Which club is he more likely to win trophies and play in the champions league at?

If he goes to Man United he's guaranteed to be in the England squad! I think he'll go to the World Cup anyway and rightly do, he's been fantastic for us this but realistically if Man United, City or Chelsea come in for one of our players you they'll go and why wouldn't they?

It's hilarious the amount of people claiming there is 'no chance' of him going to Man United, like its the most ridiculous thing they've ever heard. Its Man United FFS! they might be going through a sticky patch but they are still on one the worlds biggest clubs who can offer a player champions league football, the prospect of medals and a shoe in to the England squad. If this is serious I'd be very surprised if he stays and you wouldn't blame him for going.

You think Lallana going to Man United it unrealistic?

That's an hour mate, about 12-15 minutes for the first bit, 25 minutes for the wights, doing cardio programme should only have a 1 min rest between sets. The final bit should take about 20 mins including rests between sets. The circuit will take about 40 mins. Its hard work but if you want to lose fat its not easy. Its much more effective than these dinlows that sit on the bike at the same pace for an hour anyway.

Clearly a joke and you dinlows have fallen for it and played right into their hands by using this as an opportunity to scream and shout beat them with the 'racist' tag just like they said it would. Of course if you'd done your research rather than jumping to conclusions then you'd know this.

Worrying isn't it that we are all praying for Davis to be fit, another keeper proven to be out his depth at this level but still a vast improvement on what we've had the last few weeks.

His shoes.

Some player isn't he. Confirms what I put in my report above. Many similarities to Mick Harford there as I said . I only wish I'd advised Les Reed on him like I did when I told the club about Morgan Schnidelin a few years back.

Agreed. The last few weeks have proven that we only have 2 decent centre halves which isn't enough if we had Lovern, plus another like him with Fonte as back up that would be an excellent position to be in. left back I'm not too concerned about, when Clyne is fit he or chambers can fill in at left back for the odd games Shaw misses every now and again.

Much as I'd like us to get Astori I think this one might be dead, MP was quoted as saying when we signed Lovren that we wanted Astori originally but went for Lovren instead. I hope the club consider a CB a priority as I don't think Fonte is the long term answer, Astori fits the bill but not sure if we still want him. Bergovic would be a superb signing but think bigger clubs than us might want him. Hopefully we can find the new Tim Krul.

What does that have to do with it?

Remember screaming that at the time too!

South? I'm doing the south one with a team from work.

Hull at home seems a long time ago. At what point does a blip turn into a crisis?

So what are your aims for 2014? In 2005 I was the fittest I've ever been so set myself a goal to beat that by the end of the year. Want to beat my PBs for squat, (160kg) deadlift (145kg) and bench press (140kg) set in 2005. Also signed up to do Yorkshire Warrior in April and looking at doing Hell runner, Spartans and Tough Mudder later in the year. Really need to sort the diet out to shift the fat as I still carry too much due to my diet and too much booze. Going dry and Jan and going to try to stay that way until I do Yorkshire Warrior but with work that may be tricky. I'm looking for another martial art to get into, no Krav clubs within an hour of here so need to find something else if anyone has any recommendations!

If we lose?

Warm up stretch out, bit of a jog, cycle or row easy, then this, runs at 80% of your maximum 400 metre run 10 burpees 300 metre run 10 burpees 200 metre run 10 burpees 100 metre run 10 burpees No rest inbetween That's your warm up done 10-12 reps of 3 sets of weights Bench press Shoulder press Squat Bent over row Deadlift Pull ups - if you can't do full ones use the assist. to finish 5 x 500 metres sprints on rowing machine, 2 minute rest in between, each a sprint your time should be the same time as your first, so if your first 500 metres is 2mins, then they all should be, each one will be harder than the first. Do that twice a week and alternate with a circuit twice a week. Pyramid training is good, 10 sets, start at 10 reps of each exercise when you've done one full circuit of 10 reps you hen go down from 10 to 9,8,7 etc through to 1, after every exercise all the way through you do 10 step ups. Press up Sit up Squat Dips Lat raises Crunches Box jumps Burpees Knee to elbow Kettlebell swings
