When I first heard we had spent £4m for Rickie Lee Lambert, I almost lost my shit. Really? Really, Mr. Rodgers? What happened to our no spending for players over 23? Not only that, but Rickie Lee Lambert, 32 year old striker who has spent a total of 2 seasons in top flight football? It sounds crazy, but... it just might work.
He obviously won't be a starter, and if he does, we'll be in a world of shit to begin with. I can see him being beneficial as a late match spark, as he provides a different approach then Sturridge or Suarez, and he'll also get starts in lesser cup matches, which should prove beneficial to his stat padding.
Listen, I don't dislike Lambert, I just think he's a poor man's Dirk Kuyt. Might as well bring him back, if you're going to go that route.
