3. Experienced campaigner
Rickie Lambert has already completed 16 years of club football. He is a seasoned striker with a wealth of experience behind him. Liverpool have a squad which is youth centric and filled with players with very little experience behind them. Having a player like Lambert would help them train and prepare them for situations which they have not seen till now. During the European nights, the Liverpool youngsters would need a guiding force behind them and Lambert can be exactly that for them. A £4 million price for such a player is decent and Liverpool would turn out to be the benefactors from this deal.
