sdb Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 having seen Perez in the 10 role, I really don't think we need Lallana. Ayo and Madders are fantastic options, and Youri or Harvey could also play there. Focus on a prolific right winger and get that 3rd centre back to stop attackers even approaching our area. 1
Steve Earle Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 FFS! Some on here! No brainier - and he’d have been very, very useful in stoppage time yesterday. 3

Leicester_Loyal Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 We need bodies in our squad, badly. Free transfer, plenty of experience including European experience and won't expect to start every game. It's a no brainer for me.
majaco Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 We do not have many spare places in the squad. We need to strengthen in a couple of areas. Is Lallana good enough to improve us? Would he have made yesterday's team?

Ayo and Madders are fantastic options, and Youri or Harvey could also play there. Focus on a prolific right winger and get that 3rd centre back to stop attackers even approaching our area. I think we do need depth though. I think that's what's separating us from our nearest rivals (bar Wolves) on current form. It sounds like he has high standards in training too, which would hopefully benefit the entire squad. I think it'd be a decent signing to be honest, providing his legs haven't gone yet.
Guest Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 Really not convinced. 32, spotty injury history, probably on a decent amount of money. Is he much of an improvement on Maddison, Perez, Barnes or Tielemans at 10? I'd say probably not. You could argue he covers for the wide positions too but I don't think we're especially crying out for another slow winger who neither scores or creates goals with any regularity. Maybe he wouldn't exactly break the bank but we're on a budget and I find it difficult to imagine we couldn't put those funds to better use somewhere else.

Guest Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 How can anyone complain? We have Matty James in the squad, wouldn't that be an immediate upgrade?
Fox seen in Norwich Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 He wouldn’t be signed just for the pitch, he would great for the dressing room with his experience, and could really help others develop their game.. e.g. madders, Gray, Barnes etc.. very sensible signing imo if it happens 4
RowlattsFox Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 We've got reasonable numbers in the wide and attacking midfield areas but they all lack consistency and quality so its certainly an area we need improvements. I'd take Lallana on a reasonable wage but it can't be the only signing we make in that area of the pitch. Time to cash in on Gray or let Albrighton go. 1
Simoken Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 Its a yes from me! a brilliant squad player, experienced, skillful and coming from a PL win he must have bags of energy and confidence working in a winning environment. Brendan knows him and how he would like him to fit into the current squad, Not much coaching needed. Lastly hes on a free transfer ffs.. How can anyone complain!!! k thanks 1

A bit weird that they extended his contract for this period then, could've already joined by now and got settled in rather than just spending his time at Liverpools training ground

Pliskin Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 Still think this would be a brilliant signing. He’s got a good head on his shoulders, and would give it his all. Luckily his skill set means as long as he stays fit he’s an asset.

This way he can stay fit for next season, which is very important at his age. With the short pre-season theyve done whoever signs him a solid... plus paid the wages for another month.

Would you feel the same buzz though if you were away playing with another team? Given, there's not been any victory parade or games in front of fans, but when he signed he might have thought there was an outside chance of that. When we first went into lockdown, I genuinely held out the hope I'd be able to go on my holiday in May. Who knew.
