Lallana is thankful for his reception upon returning to Anfield.
Adam Lallana came off the bench for Brighton in their 2-2 draw against Liverpool on Saturday.
This was the midfielder’s first return to Anfield since his transfer to the Falmer Stadium last year.
Liverpool fans cheered Lallana’s name in touching scenes after the final whistle. After the game, the English midfielder wrote an emotional message to Liverpool fans, thanking them for their warm reception.
“Outstanding collective effort. Would have been easy to go under after being two behind against a team that good, but we’re made of stronger stuff. Valuable, deserved point,” Lallana wrote in an Instagram post.
“Separately, huge appreciation to every single person inside Anfield for the welcome and reception today.”
“Will always be a second home for me. I’ll never take it for granted. Thank you to a very special football club.”
Jurgen Klopp praised Lallana in an interview before the game.
“I miss Adam [Lallana] still to be honest,” he told the Reds’ website.
“I think we all agree, if Adam would have been a little bit less often injured, that could have been still on another level – and it was already great.
“So, one of the best players I ever worked with, an absolutely incredible person as well. I am really looking forward to seeing him again.”
