Another Liverpool transfer done and dusted as striker Rickie Lambert completed a 3 million pound move to West Bromwich Albion today.
The former Southampton player joined his boyhood club last season, but failed to break into the first team, despite injury to Daniel Sturridge. The England striker has now joined WBA and will be hoping to end his career on a high.

Liverpool have signed two new strikers this season in Christian Benteke and Danny Ings. Furthermore, Divock Origi is also back from loan.
Mario Balotelli and Fabio Borini are set to follow Lambert out of the club as the duo have been ordered to train away from the group.
Rodgers has informed Balotelli that he is the seventh choice striker at the club and has no future under him. The same applies for Borini, who is looking to return to Serie A this summer.
