Adam Lallana has been one of the best players under Jurgen Klopp and has turned his career around at Anfield. The former Southampton man was expected to leave the Reds as soon as the German came in since he wasn’t fitting in at Liverpool.
Cue 18 months later and the Englishman is back to his best and seems to be a vital clog in the Liverpool machine. It seems that it is only a matter of time before the Englishman is provided a new contract extension by the Reds but there is a lot being said about the wage being paid to the former Saint.
Reports from Daily Mail claims that Liverpool are set to pay Lallana 150k a week and that certainly led to a bit of a meltdown on Twitter.
There were a number of fans who wanted the Englishman to be rewarded for his excellent turnaround but an equal number seemed to be upset about the wage he was going to pull out. We hunted Twitter to share the best reactions and updates from the networking site.

Much more on this coming soon, but for now suffice to say I don’t think Adam Lallana’s new contract is a great deal for Liverpool. pic.twitter.com/e9dPS5XSTt

Lallana has caused a proper shit storm on here over his wages. Look on the bright side Liverpool fans, we probably pay Fellaini more.

If there’s one good thing coming from Liverpool lately, Adam Lallana ready to sign a new deal

Lallana’s new £150,000 a week deal is enough to convince most top footballers to join us… Hopefully we see this ambition in the window!

“We don’t pay big wages.”
*Liverpool pay a big wage to Lallana*
“We pay big wages to the wrong players.”No winning.

Should Liverpool have turned down Julian Draxler because of his wage demands if they were planning to give Adam Lallana £150k a week?

Lallana signing new 4 year contract for 150k a week, mad. Is Lallana gonna be worth 150k a week when he’s 33?!

We are currently paying Lallana Hendo Milner 420k per week and won’t overpay for the “right player”

£150k a week is a massive amount of money but it’s what clubs are paying their best players. Adam Lallana is one of Liverpool’s best. #LFC
