🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Daniel Sturridge

[The Skipper 20,609]

I think Sturridge has a good finish on him. Does anyone blame him for being a bit rusty though? In the last 6 months he's started about 5 games. What do you expect? I think him and Suarez will be a hit, they compliment each other quite well.

Was watching the United v Pool highlights and found myself shouting at Danny whenever he shot instead of looking up and bringing others into play. Then I realized it is a huge relief to see him in a different clubs shirt. Now those scouse scumbags can suffer his greedy egotistical footballing circus act.

If you actually watched the game you'd have seen he was their best player in the second half and really changed the game for them, as well as creating 3 chances for Suarez and Borini.

Does anyone else get the feeling there's a few posters in this thread who can't wait to say 'I told you so' about Sturridge. I get the feeling they'd be delighted if he scored a couple of goals against us in the next league game.

"Hater" is one of the weakest and stupidest insults someone can use against another.

'Haters gonna hate'

Not gonna lie, I'm one of them.

Though I won't be delighted if he scores v. Us.

I watched extended highlight's which basically cuts out him spitting and wondering around when the ball is out of play. Yes his movement did change the momentum and caused problems for United . Yes he did pounce on a rebound to bag a goal and yes maybe he was Liverpool's best player in the second half. Though that still does not change the fact that Danny is one of the greediest, most selfish footballers I have ever seen. It wasn't a huge achievement to out play his team mates when coming of the bench, seeing as Liverpool couldn't really be playing much worse. I can almost garuntee if had Sturridge has started in yesterdays game then he wouldn't have had the same impact as he does from coming on as a substitute. United were almost cruising against a inconsistent Pool side with a prolific Van Persie leading the victory. When Daniel came on, it was merely his pace and movement that caught United out. If he had less of a selfish desire to take glory by passing or crossing once in a while then maybe he could have stolen a draw or even a late victory for the scousers....BUT no, not Sturridge the man with such enormous potential, who was once dubbed Englands brightest prospect. No this man has to try and do it all himself and waste chance after chance, by beating the last defender at acute angles to only blast the ball into the side netting. Exactly what I saw him do time and time again for us on soo many occasions. It became a running joke and is why he was dropped from the team even though everyone could see his potential. I was rooting for him to mature in his game and produce a consistantly devistating impact for us but it just never happened and I doubt it ever will for Danny. Mainly like a lot have said before me on these very forums, he thinks he is a superstar footballer blinded by ego when in truth he needs to work a million times harder.

You say that maybe if he looked to pass or cross in a while, maybe they'd have drawn - you obviously missed his cross from the left straight to Borini's head which he scuffed, or the volley he also set up for Borini, sliding Suarez through who's touch let him down. It happens every match - Sturridge will generally have a good game, but he so much as takes one shot that is not a goal and people go back to the usual.

How dare Sturridge, a striker, shoots.

One shot ..He took more than one shot and you are not getting the point I am trying to make. It isn't the amount of shots he takes that bothered me it was the manner in which he would take them. When clearly for the benefit of the team and the desire to win the game as a team, the decision to pass or cross is a far better option than shooting when dribbling down the wing in some situations.! You must not have watched Danny in a Chelsea shirt.

Only one of his shots was wasteful, is what Ja1 was trying to say.

[OneMoSalah 8,886]

Still an overrated, arrogant cunt. Can't wait to see him never play CL football for the next 10 years where as Oscar, Hazard, Mata etc all play it for years to come

He scored a tap in, missed a massive sitter and hit the side netting when he probably should have looked to cross it, so what? How is that 'amazing' as some of yous make out.

[DDA 9,938]

And I'm saying that I can recall him wasting more than just one shot.

[OneMoSalah 8,886]

He hit the side netting at least twice and put a decent opportunity at least 3 yards wide of De Gea's right hand post. Also missed that sitter on his right foot....

When reading posts like yours it feels like Sturridge has betrayed our club or something by going to Liverpool, but im 100% that sturridge really wanted to succed at this club. But for the sake of his career he went to Liverpool, a club that can offer him time on the pitch, something Torres didnt let Sturridge at Chelsea.

I don't feel he has betrayed our club, I just didn't see the 'hype' around Sturridge as a CF.

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

Some people are just being bitter. Any sane person trying to have a half decent football career would have and should have made that decision.

Analytically correct. Why our own fan's are trying to defend a player's evidently non existant contribution to success is beyond me. Better yet the success of another club.

Yeah defending Sturridge is mind boggling while calling him an overrated cunt is perfectly alright.

[ja1 1,166]

It's useless because people are basing it on highlights. As said, if you actually watched the game, you would have seen Sturridge create chances, change the game for Liverpool. It is baffling how people are so bitter about him, and then say they do not care that he has gone. Liverpool fans, MOTD, most player ratings, all say he was good. Someone said earlier I supposedly want Sturridge to do well so I can say I told you so (not true) - I could equally say others are trying to kid themselves that he's not a good player, didn't make a positive contribution and wouldn't have to this squad over Torres.

ok but give it a rest now
