They all do, but I don't see a top club coming in for a player playing at Lallana's level unless they're a youngster. He hasn't been that good this season.
Maybe not a top club but currently he would walk right into our midfield and would be a decent stop gap signing but he will be stuck at Southampton because they will demand £25m+ for him....

Nowhere near good enough for United, not even as a stop-gap signing. We have plenty of squad players, what is missing from the middle is some real class. Sure Lallana is a good player, but so was Fellaini for Everton, Charlie Adam at Blackpool, and plenty more 'big fish in little pond' type players before them who just aren't good enough to take the big step up.

There aren't any true center midfielders good enough for us in the Premier league I don't think (who are even potentially available), we have to look further afield.

That's some free kick from Barkley though, he's going to command an hefty fee if/when he leaves Everton.

Lallana is technically better than all the players you mentioned and he's certainly better than the likes of cleverly....signing him would not be a bad idea but the problem with him is he is more attacking but he lacks the ability to control the midfield like scholes and carrick.....

I've never really understood why so many United fans talk about buying attacking midfielders when it's not really a position that United even use conventionally. It's no wonder Kagawa spends most of his time on the bench.

I'm not saying we should sign him but he can easily improve our team..I'm just saying he's good enough for us and he's certainly better than what spurs and Liverpool have........

Where chaos meets artistry. I've been enjoying the PL this season.

Normally, I'd side any Laudrup team, but yesterday I was TeamMartinez. I want them challenging the top 4, and to 've a sustained run at the top, rendering them a viable destination for some of the best in the market. Martinez has shades of Guardiola about him, in the manner in which he articulates his vision, both in discourse and in action. I love the positivity that he exudes, at all times. He's now able to express himself more effectively with better resources, and I'm delighted for him. He has my best wishes in all his footballing endeavours.

As for Moyes, I don't know what'll be his fate at Utd. But I'm certain he's the most uninspiring, sans charisma or personality, any current top club has for a manager. His third person references during his press conference in July, has to figure in the top 10 worst moments of year 2013.
