On the latest episode of Goin Home with Adam and Jo, Adam Blackmore and Jo Tessem discuss Adam Lallana's lack of recent game time.

Jo Tessem said: "I think Adam Lallana should have come on [against Leicester].

"After the Ipswich game, we haven't really seen much of him which is weird because he was so dominant in that game in the way he ran the midfield.

"In the mental part of the game, it is what we're lacking. We need someone who can demand things and tell people what to do and he does that when he's on the pitch."

Adam Blackmore added: "When you're 2-0 up, you bring someone like him on with his experience to boss the other players around to keep them focused.

"That's the one mystery for me that we aren't seeing more of him. We know he is probably the best player in the squad at managing games."
