A backup proven goal scorer for £4 million is a good deal. Not exactly a massive statement of intent though lots of money put aside for the new stadium perhaps.

can't really have a go at us for buying someone 'midtable' when arsenal house sanogo and you have welbeck as back up strikers.

Yeah, because Welbeck is on par with Lambert!

On his day, Welbeck is unplayable. Granted he doesn't have those as often as he should, but to compare him to Lambert is just silly.

 

[Semi-Neutral]

Sanogo is for the future, and it's universally acknowledged we don't have enough depth in striker anyway

Welbeck unplayable

 

[DonAK]

So Arsenal will have a Giroud v2 in the future in the name of Yaya Sanogo.

just sayin, not everyone has a bench full of world class forwards(unless ur city)...as far as 3rd/4th choice goes lambert ain't bad. low transfer fee. low wages. and we still have borini. good way to close the attack with BALANCE if u ask me.

Welbeck unplayable

One of my favorite players, absolutely immense at times, just lacks consistency. A big game player too as shown against Madrid and Bayern (pretty much the only dangerous player we had). But you wouldn't know that since you probably only catch two or three United games a year at best.

Not to mention he's a product of United's youth system, not a player we want to pay millions for. If you want to talk about United's shortcoming's then lets talk midfield or defence, don't try and play down the obvious talent we have in our strikers.

As always here I'm just banging my head against a brick wall trying to say anything positive about a United player and this is the Liverpool thread, so I won't say anymore.

You mean the same Bayern game in which he missed a great 1 on 1 chance being clean through yeah unplayable...
I certainly watched more than three games last season because of the Moyes factor great viewing for the neutral.

One worldclass striker and one young supbar striker and one Dane with a ramped up ego is pretty subpar

DonAK, Sanogo plays nothing like Giroud, honestly he hasn't done much of anything this season, hope he can get loaned out to improve next year

[BenRobbins]

He is an everton fan. When he used to play for Bristol rovers he used to live 5 mins away from me and my mates have seen him in the boozer wearing a everton shirt.

Rodgers claimed earlier this year that Lambert is a far better footballer than he is given credit for.

The Liverpool manager said: “He’s probably never got the recognition for what a really good footballer he is. He is probably seen as a traditional big number nine, a typical British striker, but he’s one of the most accomplished footballers I’ve seen. Look at his touch and the different types of goals he scores; he is a terrific player.”

 

[onzeXI]

It would be foolish not to trust Rodgers evaluation about how he fits into his system. He's done very little to cause people to doubt him.
