Right everyone needs to calm down, over the last month we have been bombarded with speculation and so called done deals, so far the manager has gone which is a major blow and now it looks like Rickie is going too which is also a big blow as he's a club legend, but I feel like Liverpool is the only club he'd leave us for and I'm happy he'll fulfill his dream of playing at Anfield. NO ONE ELSE HAS GONE YET, Lambert is the only one who may go before we get a new manager in because Liverpool said they wouldn't make the same offer after the world cup, so it's Rickie's one chance to play for them so out of respect for Rickie we have accepted, no one else will go before we have a new manager in place, I hope it's Yakin personally, the board have said they want European football, have said we are in the best position this club has ever been in and that we have top players and managers knocking on the door, now let's just wait for a new manager and watch our stars at the world cup

Les Reed and Saints could be taken for mugs by Liverpool. Ricky Lamberts FEE supposedly includes add ons, but who needs add ons with Rickys age? we should have taken £9m upfront. If Ricky wanted the move then live with that. After all he is a BIG BOY at 32.
Rickys an English centre forward going to the World Cup. £4m is a laugh.
The add ons offset money held back by Liverpool can now be added to the Lallana offer from them, and then its Saints who are funding the sell on money for Bournemouth. If Ricky does not play enough to earn us the add ons, then there are non. Or Liverpool get to pay off the add ons in a time frame to suit them not us. This would be a marvellous BOG OFF deal for Liverpool and we Saints help them buy our Captain! So tell Liverpool that they can BOG OFF themselves. Lallana is more difficult to replace, and after the World Cup, he could be a £40m plus player anyway??
Those in charge at St Marys must be very careful in how they deal with their Companies VALUABLE ASSETS.
Us fans don't get a say in the matter but they should understand that we are not fools!!

I'll stop watching football if Lallana goes for anything above £25m. He's not even worth more than £12m! A 26yr old who's just had one decent season in the EPL with no top class experience whatsoever. Jeez! He'll go anyway.

Lallana is worth 25 million in today's market. In fact he is worth what someone is willing to pay. For me not 40 but if Fellani I is worth 27.

Yes but Fellani is NOT worth £27m - they overpaid by £10m for him - it was well documented. And ManUtd will always overpay for every player - Shaw included - that's the problem for ManUtd - if they come knocking and they want a player they will never get the deal done on the cheap. They have offered Shaw £100k a week - that's mad for a nearly 19 year old who has not scored a goal or even had an assist that I can remember.

{Ed004's Note - disagree with always over pay for players. Bold statement in our starting team last year Rafael cost pittance, Smalling /Jones were only 12/16 mill Vidic was less than 10 as was Evra both of which have been in world team of the year more than once each I think. Carrick has 3/4 premierships, champions league trophy along with many other awards and cost 16 million. Hernandez, RVP, kagawa, De gea were all relatively cheap for their abilities. Though there are obvious examples Anderson, Nani, Fellaini and Young were all over paid but each of them except Fellaini has won major trophies at utd. Rooney and rio have been worth their fees over their careers at manutd. Every team makes poor decisions but a bit naive to stay manutd always over pay. Fellaini is the perfect example of a panic buy. The club couldn't agree deals for Herrera, Fabregas, Thiago or De Rossi that summer + many more we will never know about}
