Tbh my problems with Lambert is his pace. Where does your pace come from to get behind defences. Sterling and that's it. No dynamic movement between the players and Lambert doesn't have the requisite technique to make up for his lack of pace Like Drogba or Ibra. Can't dribble his way out of trouble and his link up play and hold up play is average at most for a guy you'd want at the level required for Liverpool. If he was a straight up Fellaini I'd say play him but he's not.
You lot are just ending up like United last season or Arsenal last season when Walcott and Chamberlain got injured.
