Tomo 21,751 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 What i have always loved about Danny is his drive.Sometimes he has taken shot's when pass is the better option (which has led to the outrageous hatred of him by some) but surely that is better than being scared to shoot, which is what we got from Nando for 18 months.He has the will and the hunger to succeed, he scores goals. Yes he had a bit of a quiet spell last season but we should never forget how his goals in the first half off the season was single handedly keeping us in contention for top 4.While he has said he is a number 9 a forward, the reason he was making waves about it last term is he was getting put on the wing, while Drogba (end of season big games aside) and Torres couldn't find a barn door, he would not have complained if both were scoring every week.As far as im concerned he is number one forward until Torres performs consistently enough to make me think again.

Leif 6,006 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 He's never walked away after being subbed off. Good enough for me. CHOULO19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has Danny done to warrant being the number 9 whatsoever? I'm pretty sure yesterday is the first time he's actually come on as a CF so your saying he's done enough to warrant the CF spot based on that ten minutes? Don't make me laugh mate. He's done enough to warrant a starting place in some of our next few games to see how he does over a 90 minute game. To say he's number one atm when Torres is scoring 1 in every 2 games is ludicrous imo. Let's see how he does first before making judgements like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRiver 1,512 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I don't think he will start against Juve, and I don't think that he should. In my opinion, RDM should start with Torres and see how he does. If he's shit, then he should replace him with Sturridge as early as possible in the second half. If Torres does okay, then probably he should give Sturridge 25 or 30 minutes.Sturridge should start in our next league game. Rmpr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badboy 1,526 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I would like him to have a run as a striker like Tottenham are doing with Defoe. I think Hazard and Mata will love playing behind him because of his sheer PACE. Danny won't hide he'll carry on going and he'll carry on making the run and he's actually really creative too if anyone else has noticed... he's got great vision lol.

The accurate passes and the vision he showed were stunning, really looked like he could create something out of "nothing" if you know what I mean.As some other posters already said, Dannyboy has to play. The sooner the better. chelseathebest and Badboy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dumps 284 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 great news. and i look forward to see how it goes. Hopefully it'll be more as a striker, becuase he rarely gets time there, hopefully he plays, and if he plays well RDM keeps him there. i wouldnt complain if he were to appear on a wing, but i do hope he gets some game time in his favoured position. and then HOPEFULLY he signs a new deal. would be a huge loss to lose him on a free.it is very exciting with the players we have available, we just need RDM to rotate the players a bit (and possibly the system) to give them all a chance and to find our real true best 11.

Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Sturridge plays more like a false nine than a striker. Nothing wrong with that, but guys like Mata and Hazard will have to make a larger effort to get in the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ja1 1,166 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I'm a Sturridge fan but I'd still stick with Torres against Juve..if he doesn't perform then definately Sturridge next league game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
