Phil Thompson says Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez has already made his best signing of the summer - Sammy Lee.
"There's so much to be gained by him coming back. For me, he could be the best signing of the summer."
He also said: "I am delighted Sammy is back. In fact I never wanted him to leave in the first place.
"When I departed my position as assistant manager I expressed my belief that Sammy should have taken the role alongside Rafa.
"But Rafa wanted to bring in his own people, which I fully understand. I just thought it would have been a step in the right direction to appoint Sammy. It didn't happen and he moved on."
