Liverpool: Was Adam Lallana a great servant for the Reds
Lallana’s darkest hours in red.
The sad reality of Lallana’s prime time is that he was robbed of it due to an extensively long layoff from first-team action. After helping his side achieve Champions League progress, he could barely take part.
Lallana’s injuries in 2017-2018 afforded him as little as 12 EPL appearances, starting only one of those games. Adding to the feeble sum, he featured five more times in cup competitions. From Klopp’s most important grafter on the pitch to having to replace him in the market.

Why? Cause the following season was more of the same for the player. He stayed absent. This time not only due to injury but because of falling down the pecking order in a midfield unable to be changed and having no space for others, just ask Xherdan Shaqiri.
Between his final two seasons as a Liverpool player from 2017/18 to 2019/20, he made as few as 28 appearances, starting eight fixtures only, scoring once and assisting once in the time. That does mean it was sadly time for him to be moved on after having no contribution to any goals for two years between 2017 and 2019.
As of now, Lallana is…
At the time of writing this, Lallana is currently undergoing his medical to complete his switch to the South Coast of England and join up with Brighton. Once the deal has gone through he will join the Seagulls on a three-year deal keeping him at the club till 2023.
Wish him luck and better fortune in his next Premier League venture, making Graham Potter’s side a tough competitor in the league. It also reps brilliant business from the club who beat a host of others to his signature.
