Ricky Lambert

[C19RK73]

Training with the lads apparently

 

[Teessidemackem]

I forgot he even existed. Whats he been doing the past 2 years?

 

[Libby]

It's Rickie.

And bloke's a hero down these parts, class player who I'm sure could do more than a job in the championship providing his fitness is upto scratch.

 

[Sunderlad]

I'd be chuffed for Lambert on a free

Back up player as you'd expect with his age.

 

[Nacho]

I've been saying we should give him a go. No older than Defoe and he wasn't exactly a waste of time, Lambert won't be in the same shape as Defoe but on the plus side he's the right kind of forward that we need.

 

[Jack TheLad]

Loads of experience, will be good to have around the place if nothing else.

If he can get and stay fit I'm sure he could be handy enough.

About where we are as a club *pours another triple whiskey and sighs

 

[Big Bad Wesley Brown]

Where is the source for this mate? Noticed that the number 10 shirt is still vacant so there could be something in it. I actually think he's definitely capable at this level, would rate him as a better option than Vaughan to be honest.

 

[The Norton Cat]

Good player but he's been struggling with injuries for the last couple of seasons.

Hope we give the lad a chance.

If he's struggling on fitness and injuries, maybe a pay as you go contract and play for a full contract?

A mate of mine knows a bloke etc etc

Hope your source is right as he would provide another option for us and be our target man and possible goal outlet - plan b

He is so much more than a target man mate, umderstably people have alwats seen him that way but he's a very good footballer too

He knows where the goal is for sure

This is Sunderland marra.... when have we ever done the 'sensible' thing ???
He'll get a 15 year contract worth £90,000 a week

Seriously tho, his experience would be great around the young 'uns

Would rather we looked at Cheik Diabate.

6'5 29 year old. Free agent. Absolute unit and good in the air

Cancel that. He's at a club all of a sudden

Takes a canny penalty too iirc!

You do! Didn't miss a single one for us and only 2 in his career I believe.

My worry about penalties is that we've scored something like 28 in a row (competitive match penalties - not including shoot-outs) which is (I believe) a world record - we're due to miss one soon surely!!
