One of the many players to make this move, Lallana moved from <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/southampton\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Southampton<\/a> to Liverpool in 2014 having impressed in their early <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/premier-league\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Premier League<\/a> seasons.<\/p>\n<p>In his last season with the Saints, Lallana scored nine goals, while assisting eight, earning himself a move to one of England\u2019s top teams.<\/p>\n<p>Upon moving to Anfield, Lallana continued to be impressive for a number of seasons, even continuing his good form into the 2016\/17 season. However, that came to an abrupt hold following the end of the aforementioned campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Since the end of 2016\/17, Lallana has managed to score just one goal from 54 appearances. The 31-year-old\u2019s only strike came against United this season, denying them the opportunity to stop Liverpool\u2019s unbeaten run.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, he has fallen down the pecking order recently, with some top quality additions made by Jurgen Klopp. <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=7f3b388c,4e3a17fc,60e56b7c,b7b9c4fc,07ee25f7&amp;search=Fabinho&amp;utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fabinho<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/f25c8e3a\/Naby-Keita\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Naby Keita<\/a> are among those to have punished Lallana away from the starting XI, with the Englishman having made just three starts in the league this term.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, Liverpool have not been particularly keen to renew his contract, and he is likely to become a free agent at the end of the season, with FIFA having extended all contracts set to expire until the end of the season.<\/p>\n<p>United could grab Lallana on a free transfer, and that is exactly what Deeney thinks they should do.<\/p>\n<h3>Deeney\u2019s Advice<\/h3>\n<p>Lazio and Leicester City are among the sides linked with the 31-year-old, and Deeney suggests that United may like to join this race. Speaking to the United Standard, the Watford frontman said: \u201cI was just chatting about this with my mates in our group chat \u2013 Lallana walks into 90% of teams.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe could play for Man City but I think they\u2019re overpopulated. You would take him at\u00a0United. He\u2019d be in the squad and 100% he improves the squad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLallana can play anywhere across the front line. Tottenham would take him, Everton, Chelsea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>United are rebuilding, with a focus on youth, but Lallana would be a cheap way for them to add some valuable experience to their squad.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"75ePfLduRHVlJnBrMxkP9g\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1206821315\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'75ePfLduRHVlJnBrMxkP9g',sig:'SD1uPnneNQ630vvdjmIVfCgtRlfw33YicAlG0ysew-w=',w:'594px',h:'390px',items:'1206821315',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Troy Deeney has urged Manchester United to make a shock move for Liverpool\u2019s Adam Lallana, according to Football 365.
