News about Adam Lallana

Matches have been so bonkers that it would be impossible to recall where you were when the craziness began to unfold for our viewing pleasure. Manchester United's snatched defeat from the jaws of victory on Thursday, allowing Chelsea's Cole Palmer to score twice in the dying seconds of stoppage time. Mail Sport gathered our top maddest games from the Premier League's recent return to action.

CONFIDENTIAL OF LIVERPOOL: On Sunday, there were a few reunions at Anfield, not least man of the match Alexis Mac Allister, who received a rousing ovation from the Brighton faithful. But former Reds star Adam Lallana received a standing ovation. Lallana was on the verge of scoring an equalizer late but he missed his shot just wide. The midfielder is set to transition to coaching and is widely expected to retire from playing either at the end of this season or next. And Jurgen Klopp has thrown his weight behind Lallana's teaching career and offered to assist him with suggestions. During the recent break from club football, the former Southampton star, who earned 34 caps, did some work for the national team's Under 21s alongside Lee Carsley.

NATHAN SALT: The Reds came from behind to beat Brighton at the Amex, winning him his 300th competitive victory as Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp. Danny Welbeck put the Seagulls up in front after only two minutes, but Liverpool regained control and levelled through Luis Dias before the interval. After several opportunities to take the lead fell apart, Mo Salah stepped up when his team needed him most to secure what could be a critical three points in the championship race.

Since making his debut in 2013, the 35-year-old played for his country in 2018 at the age of 29, earning a total of 34 caps for the Three Lions. He will not play for the senior team again as he sees out the last days of his Brighton career, but fans were left scratching their heads this week when they say he was training with players over a decade his junior. Although Lallana has suffered with injuries throughout his career, he has made 19 Premier League appearances this season and will be focusing on Brighton's qualification for Europe once more this season.

Liverpool's academy follows a stringent set of rules for its young players, as shown by academy director Alex Inglethorpe. These policies include a salary ceiling, a peculiar car policy, and the temporary confiscation of phones during training hours. Player salaries are limited to £50,000 a year as a result of these laws. In addition, a 'car clause' requires that players' vehicles must not exceed a 1.3 litre engine capacity.

Adam Lallana believes that replacing Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool's boss in the summer will be a difficult challenge, but that it won't surprise' him if another Premier League manager fills the vacant. Lallana praised Klopp's transformational role in turning Liverpool into one of Europe's most feared teams, although he admits that his former team will be difficult to replace him.

Manchester United's Dan Ashworth has been designated as the No. 1 target in the hunt for a new sporting director. Ashworth, 52, works in Newcastle United, but it appears Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS have chosen the man to oversee recruitment at Old Trafford. United and Newcastle are expected to reach an agreement over Ashworth by early next week, according to Mail Sport. Both sides are planning a formal approach for the sporting director, and a prompt conclusion is the preferred result.

HORSE POWER: Rivals: They make the sport such a compelling spectacle. It's what it's all about, isn't it?Pick a side, nail your colors to the mast, and invest yourself emotionally as it pans out. Nobody watches the Wimbledon final and says they aren't bothered who wins; you don't spend the last day of a major ambivalent about which golfer will come out top. If you're lucky enough to see greatness being tested to the limit - or not - even better when old adversaries clash. Rivalries persist. It's why we use Seb Coe and Steve Ovett as reference points 43 years after their fiasco in the Moscow Olympics for what sport should be: pushing yourself to the limit, fighting back, and never shirking a challenge.

Because they had James Trafford coming through, Manchester City were able to have touted goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu leave for Southampton in 2022 in part. Trafford's desire to play, a £19 million Burnley club-record deal, and a buy-back guarantee were all necessary factors that persuaded them to sell a year later. Trafford, 21, has been chastised for his difficult top-flight baptism, but his heroics show why he was so popular at City. Burnley's 10 saves were crucial to earning a point. Many people congratulated him at full throttle, including Adam Lallana, who coached Trafford Under 21s, and Brighton keeper Jason Steele.

Adam Lallana of Brighton clashed with Chelsea defender Benoit Badiashile and Wesley Fofana at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, the hosts winning in a crucial Premier League victory. Both teams were fought over, with Blues midfielder Conor Gallagher being suspended for his second bookable offence after fouling Billy Gilmour on the stroke of half time.

INSIDE A PREMIER LEAGUE CLUB: Adam Lallana is one of a group of extremely active, over-30, proven winners at Brighton, and has forged a strong relationship with boss Roberto De Zerbi. 'I feel like he's an older sibling, an older brother I've never met,' says Lallana, who joined Liverpool in 2020 and turned 35 in May. He's demanding as hell, but I'm still trying to impress him and make sure he's not dissatisfied with me.'

OLIVER HOLT AT OLD TRAFFORD: Old Trafford was not a shock victim. Brighton won as most predicted they would. The more-owned, more profitable, better-managed club defeated an entity that is still trying to figure out what being a football club entails, as many as expected. Manchester United has devolved into a sad shambles of a place both on and off the field. During Brighton's match against United, there were long stretches of the game. There were times when United States could not get anywhere near them. Brighton is so brave in possession and so confident that it feels like an education and a treat every time you watch them. On Saturday, they were mesmerizing.

Even after leading England's Under-21s to their first European Championship title in 39 years against Spain two months ago, Lee Carsley admitted that he still has work to do. Carsley has lost Joleon Lescott from his coaching staff, but Ashley Cole, with Brighton midfielder Adam Lallana, will be on the backroom team for the next five games in three camps.

JAKE NISSE AT REDBULL ARENA: Not so long ago, a preseason matchup between Brighton and Newcastle in Harrison, New Jersey, may have failed to sell tickets. Not anymore. Newcastle defeated 2-1 in second-half stoppage time on Friday night, extending America's Premier League obsession well beyond the 'Big Six.'

NICK HARRIS: On BT Sport, the Champions League watched their last ever final on Saturday night before being rebranded as TNT next season. They burst out with fireworks both on and off the field. And this was before kick-off in an 'opening ceremony' that was solely designed to sell a sugary soft drink. We were entertained by Anitta and Burna Boy, as well as Adam Lallana on drums, as we were led to believe. After ten years of service, Jake Humphrey was hosting his final hoorah as a BT Sport host. In a series of tweets last month, the 44-year-old broadcaster announced that he is'stepping back' after a decade in his 'dream job' to spend more time with his Whisper Group production company and his High Performance podcast.

In the FA Cup semi-finals at Wembley, Manchester United will face Brighton and Hove Albion. The Red Devils come off the back of losing 3-0 by Sevilla, with Youssef En-Nesyri and Loic Bade scoring to win by 5-2 aggregate in the Europa League quarter-finals. Erik ten Hag's men will be trying to book their place in another cup final at Wembley Stadium. To win the Carabao Cup, the team defeated Newcastle United 2-0 back in February.

On Thursday night, Southampton's Under 18s team will face their first FA Youth Cup semi-finalist since 2005. On Thursday night, the U18s will head to West Ham's U18s for a match at the London Stadium, with the winner facing either Arsenal or Manchester in the final. If the Saints make it to the final, it will be a monumental achievement.

MATT BARLOW: With relegation looming over St Mary's parish, it may not be the omen Ruben Selles, but a new generation of talent might give Southampton some solace if they are to fall out of the Premier League. For the first time since 2005, the Saints are just one win away from advancing to the FA Youth Cup final, which also happens to be the last time they were disqualified from the top flight. They lost the final to Ipswich, but the club's rich harvest, including Theo Walcott, Adam Lallana, and Gareth Bale, bounced ahead and strengthened the club's reputation as a youth development specialist dating back decades.

After signing a new one-year contract with Brighton, Adam Lallana has described head coach Roberto De Zerbi as "particularly special." Lallana, a former England international, has signed a new deal that will keep him in the Amex Stadium until the summer of 2024. De Zerbi was 'right up there' with his previous managers, according to Lallana, who worked with Mauricio Pochettino and Jurgen Klopp at previous clubs Southampton and Liverpool.

Roberto De Zerbi has begged Brighton owner Tony Bloom to extend Adam Lallana's deal, fearing that the injured midfielder will not return to action this season. Lallana, a former England international, has missed Albion's past four games after losing by a leg injury in last month's 2-2 draw at Leicester. With the situation more serious than expected, the 34-year-old could have made his final Albion appearance this summer as his current contract comes to an end. Despite the fitness issues, head coach De Zerbi is determined to keep a player he admires as both offensive and defensive on and off the field.

Brighton fans have been encouraged to support wantaway midfielder Moises Caicedo for the remainder of the season, according to Roberto De Zerbi. After struggling to get a transfer before the transfer deadline, Caicedo is expected to return to Albion's matchday squad for Saturday's home game against Bournemouth. The Seagulls turned down two bids from Premier League executives Arsenal for the Ecuadori national, although Chelsea were also keen.

ROB DRAPER: On a Monday morning at a Hove bar, it's 2 a.m., which might be an odd time for a party. And here's Brighton's first team squad, boss, and the entire staff were cramming into a party environment in honor of their season. They were ninth last May, and after the fun police decide to ban excessive revelry from top-ten finishes, this is a club that is within a game of being out of the league in 1997, when they were evicted from their own grounds in Brighton, forced to play at Gillingham in Kent for two seasons and then moved to Brighton, where the shot-putt circle obstructed fans' views. And the occasion was a true all-club affair. Staff from marketing, television, and sales were on hand to support star players and coaches, partially because this is part of their culture. But also because the club's compensation system extends to all employees, from the parking attendant to Danny Welbeck and Adam Lallana.

Adam Lallana, a Brighton midfielder, has maintained that his side has "got enough" without Leandro Trossard, who joined Arsenal for £27 million on Friday. After a falling out with Seagulls manager Roberto De Zerbi, Sportmail announced that the Belgium international training session ended alone after making it clear he wanted to leave the team. Brighton will be paid £20 million as a result of concrete rewards - and the Gunners have given Trossard the No.19 shirt, which was previously used by Nicolas Pepe.

ADRIAN KAJUMBA CHARGETS: It's time for optimistic proclamations about this year, and if anyone of an Arsenal persuasion wanted to start 2023 with one relating to their hunt for their first Premier League title in nearly two decades, they may have a good argument. Arsenal continues to triumph, although their rivals continue to show that they are more prone to losing points. Their title credentials are being established week by week, game by game. For the time being, Arsenal's most closely linked to the club are refusing to be carried away. But match days like this final Saturday of 2022 only add to the sense that this might not be their time again.
