tajjuk Posted 23 March, 2018 Share Posted 23 March, 2018 He wasn't scoring for Cardiff in the Championship. If he hadn't left us I reckon we'd have squeezed maybe 1 more decent season out of him, but he was in decline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 23 March, 2018 Share Posted 23 March, 2018 I'd rather have Rickie scoring no goals on the pitch than Carrillo and Long doing it. Having said that, at least we might actually score a penalty if was playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKD Posted 23 March, 2018 Share Posted 23 March, 2018 On the balance of what we have seen, he would offer just as much (if not more) than Carrillo has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doddisalegend Posted 23 March, 2018 Share Posted 23 March, 2018 Yep happy to pay him to sit in the treatment room with a bad back. I think this a great idea we should take further maybe we could get Channon in, on a short term deal to the end of the season, to give us a bit of pace upfront? Maybe we could tempt MLT to come out of retirement to save us with a bit of relegation magic. We could shore up the back line by getting Claus Lundekvam and killer to turn out as well..

Window Cleaner Posted 23 March, 2018 Share Posted 23 March, 2018 Well no, because there's obviously a reason behind him being in retirement. If he could still cut it somewhere or other he'd still be playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's stick with the guy who has scored goals in Ligue 1 and played in the Champions League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 23 March, 2018 Share Posted 23 March, 2018 Yes, he's exactly the strike partner Phil Boyer needs. Not so sure. I think Ted MacDougall would be better given the option of playing alongside Lambert. Don't suppose anyone wants Nivea to come out of retirement as well do they ?

Matthew Le God Posted 23 March, 2018 Share Posted 23 March, 2018 ...Would you have him back? No, he ended his career unable to get into a struggling Championship team. He wouldn't be remotely close to the quality or fitness of Austin, Gabbiadni, Long and yes even Carrillo. Lambert in his prime... sure. Lambert now... no chance.

Jimmy_D Posted 23 March, 2018 Share Posted 23 March, 2018 Lambert and us were awesome for each other. We managed to wring every last drop out of the latter part of his career, but unfortunately his time playing is done now. That said, I reckon he'll make an excellent coach, if he chooses to go that route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doddisalegend Posted 23 March, 2018 Share Posted 23 March, 2018 We still need a penalty coach. That's for sure when Rickie played for us a penalty was as good as a goal you just expected him to score Now we seem to miss as many as we score when you see the likes of Tadic or Gabbi step up it doesn't fill you with confidence.

the saint in winchester Posted 24 March, 2018 Share Posted 24 March, 2018 As a coach of the forwards, if his back could take it, yes I would. When to make the runs, how to conserve energy, I think he could advise our forwards. And as for penalty taking coaching, yes indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Kucho Posted 24 March, 2018 Share Posted 24 March, 2018 Employing Lambert as a youth coach I would say yes. Good example for the players that hard works pays of and Lambert rarely got in to trouble on and off the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I don't subscribe to the "football players as rôle models" theory, that is one thing I'd hope young kids wouldn't follow. That and the prattish haircuts which seem to be all but compulsory.
