I've always really liked Lambert. Even dating back to his Southampton lower league days he's looked having something about him.

Never really saw much of him until Southampton got promoted, but was very impressed with him when they drew 1-1 up here under Di Canio, clearly had a lot more to his game to ensure he wasn't going to be the one-season wonder that the likes of Holt and Graham the previous year ended up being.

We played them away under Di Canio.
 
£4m is not really so odd for a team that now need a bigger squad as they are in CL, probably about right for all concerned. Saints get good money for an older player, 'pool get decent striker for a season.

Its good for Southamton because they get to cash in on it. Liverpool will need better than Rickie Lambert though. I'd just expect a bigger and better name if I was a Liverpool fan especially with the lure of Champions League. Lambert has 0 european experience.

No doubt, but he would be for PL when they have a CL game in the week and need to keep the strikeforce "fresh".

But surely Liverpool at the very least want to challenging for top 4 again. Is Lambert really a striker Liverpool want to rely on to pick up the slack when Sturridge and Suarez pick up knocks and need a rest? Not for me. They will need better still.
