I have never suggested that we would or could sign him just that we can dream about such signings as he is far better than any midfielder that we have, although we have yet to see Macallister play for us. To sign such a player would mean us moving up to the next level.

I actually drafted a thread along those lines, using Messi as the example. I guess the difference is that Lallana will be out of contract, while Messi (or any of the other examples, I thought of) isn't. So it seems a bit OTT.
But I totally get your point – the whole concept behind the thread is a bit pointless. At least with a RUMOUR, there has been some mention of it, regardless of how tenuous it is...
Perhaps from the next time he does it, and there will be many many more next times, we can just flag it up as a Lallana thread, then carry on with our day.
He will do better than that.
Man united or Everton not impossible if club rivalries can be laid to one side.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he went abroad . Seems to be the thing to do nowadays.
FWIW I do think propper can look outstanding for us but often gets dragged down to our level, and at other times doesn’t do himself justice.
Ive seen him boss it in the Dutch national team.
He’d look good at Liverpool, not that that will happen.
Although TBF, you or I would look good in that Liverpool team. Case in point , Daniel sturridge.
It will be interesting to see if a stack of CL clubs are willing to spend big on Propper this summer.
If we as laymen can see his brilliance, being held back by his inferior team-mates, then scouts/analysts at Europe’s biggest clubs can see it.
Valuation .... £35m?
Some on here will think you’re being serious with that valuation.
I do think Propper would thrive at a bigger club where others would be out of their depth. On a good day, He has vision, reads the game pretty well and has good technique.
He would be one of the ones I wouldn’t expect to see in the championship with us.
He’d be a good signing for someone at around £12m

Interesting one because if Propper is so good why can't he lift the team in the same way Grealish or Zaha do for their respective teams. It's all about drive/passion and I am not convinced he has that and that's why I don't think he is as good as some say. He can't finish either.... that said I want him to be the game winner now and I can eat humble pie.
With Grealish often valued at £77m, Maddison £75m, Sancho £75m, Pogba £150m, Maguire £80m, perhaps £35m in this market isn’t so far fetched for a Dutch international.
I agree, Propper won’t stay with us if we drop.
Because Grealish and Maddison are far better players, they’re consistently producing goals and assists and have pace, compared to Propper. Zaha is a gifted winger who has outstanding games and off days.
I have so hence my comments.. but it's all academic anyway because he ain't coming here!

We are now red hot favourites to sign Lallana according to SkyBet who are usually a sensible betting source for possibilities rather than media hype . 1-4 on ! That is a big sign I feel that a deal could be announced in the next week . If it isn’t I suspect the odds will drastically reduce and he will go elsewhere. Just my feeling .

He's way too tall. We should be going for Shaqiri.
I really doubt we are after Lallana. Would be happy with him joining if we are, but at his age and with his injury record, he doesn't seem like the kind of player we would go for.

Coud do worse than Shaquiri, IMHO.
I'm thinking that our one or two incoming this season might just be experienced PL players on the fringe of their teams (if wages ca be sorted out - which is of course a biggy; do they want to sit on the bench and get even richer, or do they want regular first team football?)
Lallana, Shaquiri, Giraud, Origi, Barclay. One of those (or, dreamland, two) plus youngsters coming through might be a way forward.
Lallana is the only one of those even remotely possible I think
