Video: Rickie Lambert’s first interview as a Liverpool player

We're not sure we've ever seen a player so happy to move clubs.

We’re not sure we’ve ever seen a player so happy to move clubs.

Lambert, who comes from Liverpool, said that his mam and dad shed a few tears when they found out he was moving from Southampton.

“The fact that they’ve got their son home, and the fact that it’s for Liverpool, is unreal,” he said.

The 32-year-old striker explained how devastated he was at being forced to leave Liverpool at 15 and having to force his way up through the lower leagues.

Lambert seems like someone who has lost a penny and found £200,000 throughout the interview, and is clearly one of the good lads.
