from what i can gather we turned fulham down on transfer deadline day

Bit worrying that today's column has

Fulham are preparing a January bid for Southampton midfielder Adam Lallana. (Daily Star)

Be gutted if he were to leave. Mainly because we never get to see players develop anymore.

He is one of our future stars so please Mr Lowe let us keep him.

It would be a real shame to see him go, but if there is silly money on offer we will take it and although it pains me to say it, so we should.

Agree and who would turn down a premiership salary if it were on offer? Not me!

This is all true but we need him more now than ever. Looks like a star in the making and is becoming an essential player. Good link up man.

If we keep him long enough could be worth a lot more than any sold this summer.

Looks like Spurs want him too...

Damn damn damn.

Apparently the club are denying any official approach by Spurs..

FROM THE ECHO:

'Saints: No Lallana approach from Spurs
6:40am Wednesday 24th September 2008

By Gordon Simpson »

SAINTS have insisted they have received no official approach from Spurs for Adam Lallana.

Reports yesterday suggested the Premiership side had enquired about the 20-year-old and were told they would need to pay £5m when the transfer window reopens in January.

Lallana had been the subject of an approach from Fulham before the August transfer window closed, but Saints rejected those advances.

Bournemouth-born Lallana recently signed a new three-year deal at St Mary’s.

A club spokesman said: “There has been no official approach from Tottenham Hotspur for Adam Lallana.

“Adam is one of a number of technically gifted players who have come through the club’s Academy and it is obviously flattering to see them held in such high regard within the game.

“Adam has always had the ability to perform, and having recently signed a new three year contract he now has the chance to do so.”



Perhaps an email from Spurs got lost.......same as mine wishing Jan a happy birthday!! ;)

Perhaps we don't got enough of a wedge to bring them to our door.

And here's me thinking emails are free.
