Anfield boss Brendan Rodgers has already signed Rickie Lambert and Adam Lallana from the St Mary’s outfit and are set to complete a hat-trick with moves to bring in Croatian centre-back Dejan Lovren at an advanced stage, now it appears the Northern Irish manager wants to bring in a fourth Saints player.
