Lallana Hails Chamberlain's Stay

Adam Lallana has praised teammate Alex Chamberlain for the progress he has made this season. Alex followed in Adam's footsteps with an appearance for the England Under-21s last week, before playing a key role in Saints' 1-0 victory over Carlisle on Saturday, and Lallana is glad that the seventeen year-old stayed at the club during the transfer window. "He's got a massive future," Adam enthused. "The lad's seventeen and he was mixing it with lads who are playing every week in the Premiership last week. From what I heard, he easily held his own and shown what he's capable of. "It's only going to be a matter of time before he progresses and plays at that level, but it's his first season, so I think it was a mature decision to stay here and play week in week out in this league because he'll learn a lot. "He's a massive talent and him not moving on is a massive signing in itself really."   Source Saintsfc
