If he wasn't on the verge of completing a move to his boyhood club, you'd almost feel sorry for Rickie Lambert.
The England striker was on Merseyside for his Liverpool medical on Saturday before flying back to his family for a short spell before the World Cup.
The 32-year-old's move to Anfield from Southampton will be confirmed on Monday, hence his reticence in saying much to this reporter.
In fairness to Lambert, he somehow manages to stay friendly all the way through.
