Congratulations Liverpool. You got Sir Rickie Lambert back.
Without question he was / is the most popular player amongst the squad and amongst saints fans in Southampton's recent history. A more decent bloke you wont find. A club legend and talisman.
He has an awesome set piece ability but is so much more than the big central striker non footballing observers might think. His technique and footballing brain is Teddy Sheringham like and I've no doubt he will help your young players, especially strikers, look even better than they are right now, and score even more goals. If he can line them up such that even Welbeck cant miss as hes done for England then he can certainly line them up for your attackers..
Expect an even bigger goal rush next year with him present - assuming you play him that is. He cant do that sat on a bench so i would be intrigued to know if he can get to start with you...
Anyway, good luck next season and please look after Rickie. We all love him and always will.
A Saints fan.
