Holt is a joke post. Guy is no where near a top 4 player. If you go down that road you might aswel say Michu,Fletcher These guys are joint top scorers at the moment. It's simple, Play Sturridge, Reap rewards, play Torres get hardly any goals, I read a stat that Torres has scored 18 in 82 for us? hasn't van Persie got 9 in 12 for Utd? Jesus. Anyone who says he hasn't had his time or chance is deluded. He HAS to go, hes not doing it for us. Hasn't done it for us in the seasons hes been here. Time to go. And anybody that says a signing of a goal machine in the mould of Falcao or Cavani etc is kidding themselves. Until then Sturridge should be our first choice striker and based on how he performs that should dictate who we go for in the transfer window.

Another shit performace by Torres, although not a sending off, he genuinely adds NOTHING to our team. Would rather have Michu or Fletcher. Thats being completely honest. He doesn't shoot from outside the box. He's afraid. DM HAS to start Sturridge, not just in league cup games, but every game. He now deserves his chance with Mata-Hazard-Oscar behind him. It's getting beyond a joke

Sorry but disagree here. We would have a number 9 that scores consistantly and add in Mata, Hazard et all goals. Torres record infront of goal isn't anywhere near our rivals top boys.

It is. BUT only thing missing is a number 9 who can notch big goals....We get that. We have a force.

Please there has to be a stream....

I think people still stick up for this guy way too much. If we had drogba would he have scored? Probably, did Torres ever look like scoring? His job, His one SOLE job is to notch. He doesn't do it often enough, People say he had 4 players around him etc - If his movement was good enough they wouldn't be able to track him. I find it genuinely unexplainable how he is getting into the team ahead of Sturridge. Sturridge again since his goalscoring record at Bolton has NEVER been played up top for Chelsea for even 3 games straight. Embarassing. Sturridge proved for England in the Olympics he can score so if this guy can't then Sturridge should get his chance. People are relying heavily on someone imo not good enough.

No Shake fuck him count

I think if we plan on letting this talent go, someone BIG may have to come in first...and by big i mean bigger than Schurrle, at least Sturridge up top is danger, we don't know if this guy would be as he is unproven in EPL

Look under the Daily mail Pic of Sturridge....Didn't realise he was Dean?! haha

Had his chance? When? At Bolton when he scored 8 in 12? Or you mean when he's been played out of position at Chelsea his whole time here pretty much? The boy has never had a crack here at this club at CF. He deserves as many games as Torres had last season and his return would have been greater. FACT.

Sturridge should get a nod up top instead of Torres.

He played for the final 10 mins right? so that makes him CL tied. Can't see us going for him if thats the case....

Again SWPII? Possibly. Except this guy isn't cost 21 million. He's gonna cost 6-10 Million (depending on who you believe) I again don't see how this is a bad signing at all. He will have impact. He has pace, power, a good dribbler and definitely is one of Wigans best players based on what we have seen in the last year. He's 21 too which means he has room for improvement. He is a low risk signing with potential to be a decent enough player and signing for us, I really don't see what everyones issue is with the guy. Sorry if I am repeating myself here. lol Any other winger, would cost alot more than Moses for a similar player, lets not forget going abroad for players and paying 16Million plus for something, then taking into account a new league/setting is a fairly high risk. May aswel go in low, grab a bargain who has PL experience and use it to our advantage.

Decent Signing I think as a squad player. Young, Talented, has time to improve and at 8Million Low risk. Don't see why anyone is questioning this. Equal or better than Kalou IMO. Apart from Kalou has more experience in big games, but that will come with him playing for us.

Lawl

I think Give Sturridge a go through the middle and you'lll see some return from him. He will need a bit of time too though considering he hasn't been played up top for a year. Great goal by him for team GB. I think it would be out of Hulk or Moses, cause both seem to be wingers/Strikers, Hulk fits the striker bill a little more perhaps. Both are great players. In terms of cost, 7-10 Million compared to 35-40? Moses to me is a small risk bargain. And last season to me we lacked wingers, this season we will have Marin,Mata,hazard,Moses (possibly), and remember we pretty much only had Drogba and Torres last year, I know Anelka went, but never really got a run. Sturridge never got a game up to, neither did Lukaku. But they were two completely different players which gave us an edge, Drogba Powerful and a real match winner, Torres - Meh... Sturridge and Torres could form something decent on rotation perhaps. I would like to see a power striker brought in possibly, big physical presence but again that will cost big money, a Cavani would be a dream.

what the fuck is this thread even come to a page of arguing? thought I came on here to find out about potential transfers..

Just Reading the live updates here: http://live-blog.sport.uk.msn.com/Event/John_Terry_race_trial the words 'and' and 'fucking' ? Can someone explain this to me, confused? It's applarently said "you f****** b**** C***?" whats with the 'and'? If he was repeating it then there isn't anything wrong with the f****** part if thats what he heard?

I agree here, This is a fucking joke of a thread. YES Drogba carried us at times, no doubt...What about Ramiers chip, Cech Penalty Saves, Cahill playing through pain, Ashley cole goalline clearence, Even Terry's red card ended affecting us in a good way! (althought I won't thank him for it) The team and manager collectively take responsibility for us being CL chamipons. Not just Drogba. He showed up when it mattered yes, defended like a god, but lets not forget gave 2 peno's away which could have cost us too. I think it was written. Who would bet messi and robben would both miss penos to win games against us? This thread needs to be over, fucking joke!

Who?

Still think adam johnson is the player we should go for

Would rather give sturridge a chance and cut our losses with Torres, as mentioned he has turned into a terrible finisher...which is what matters...having striker with good movement isnt enough for us. Drogba is slow as shit, but look at the goals, when it matters he's there, right place, right time. he knows how to finish and uses his old legs well to make the runs when they mattered. Not to mention his work rate is 10x what Torres is. Embarrassing really.

If City go for Hulk, We should go for A Johnson.

We should attempt to lure Micah Richards - struggling to get a game at Man Citeh!

Could Play Rami infront of mikel though -------Mikel---------- ----Rami------------ Hulk-----Mata------Hazard -------Sturidge---------------- Maybe not enough power there...would love to see sturridge get his chance to shine there
