Lambert floating after Liverpool return: Unbelievable!

Rickie Lambert is thrilled to have completed his move to Liverpool.Southampton have accepted a £4 million offer for the England striker, with the transfer confirmed by Liverpool this morning.

"I can't believe it. I've loved this club all my life," Lambert said.

"I left here 17 years ago - and I haven't stopped loving it since.

"I have always dreamt of playing for Liverpool, but I did kind of think the chance of playing for them had gone. I didn't think the chance would come.

"I know how big Liverpool are - and it means everything to me - but I know what is important; I know it's what I do on the pitch and the minutes I play. I know that's what matters, and that's what I'll be focused on."
