didierforever 7,349 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Not so much that the many times he had chances to pass and yet would take a chance himself when it was pointless and clear it wasnt going where he wanted.That may have been due to wanting to prove he did have the skill etc and show why he should be playing.If he had cost us 50m he'd still be here..just didnt work out and really they got the better end of the deal.Cant see him turning crap anytime soon...cant see Torres turning good anytime soonprecisely my point. also u answered urself there. he did those "selfish" acts to show us that he was the real deal. i saw today's match and the match against stoke and pool's last 5 fixtures of the last season, and i would not say sturridge is "selfish". he would take a shot if he thought he had a 10% chance of scoring but thats what strikers are supposed to do. i honestly cant remember when ba or floppes last scored from outside the box. sturridge on the other hand has the confidence of taking the shots. also there is no point of him "turning crap"... he was always a good striker with a potential of something really special. he has the knack of getting on the score sheet which is exactly what you want in a striker.

Popular Post! The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 25, 2013 Popular Post! Share Posted August 25, 2013 In term of moving into channels yes but link up play not sure about that.I watched him probably twice with liverpool. When he picked up the ball his first instinct is to take on player and his off the ball movement is more about moving into channel. For us, we need players like RVP, Lewandowski, or Rooney who will drop deep and link up with our midfield.I've closely followed Sturridge since he was around 16/17 and believe me, he definitely has the capabilities to be constantly dropping deep. Watch the game against Villa actually, even his goal you'll see he isn't the furthest forward player when he receives the ball. I actually think he's best as a second striker, behind a main striker because his link up play is and always has been good, but he has the potential to be a more complete striker as he matures. Sturridge is in the mould of those players and that will be more evident as he develops and matures. I personally think that after Rooney Wilshere and maybe Carrick he's probably the biggest English talent out there atm. didierforever, Peace., Blue Armour and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
didierforever 7,349 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Lol this thread will never end. Sturridge is not a good striker for us because we need our striker to hold the ball and to create space for our midfielder.sturridge can hold the ball better than torres and ba. his movement off the ball is what makes the space for any midfield. i mean watch him and coutinho playing together. ultimate example of it. also NO, we dont ONLY need a striker who drops deep to recieve the ball in midfield (like rooney, rvp as you stated), we need some directness in our play which is what you get with sturridge. also his link up play is brilliant and any1 who has watched pool's last 7-10 matches will tell u that.

Tomo 21,751 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Yes we get it, we sholdn't have let him go so quick, do we have to go over this again and again every time he scores? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Fong 2,776 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Who did he frustrate? Some random kids at these forums who know nothing about anything but bullshit twitter? Get real.The ONLY reason Sturridge never flourished in Chelsea and that we sold him is due to that blonde cunt. If he wasnt with us, Danny would have played ALOT more as CF and show people how it feels to have a CF who can actually play.Blonde cunt, wow, just wow. Did he kill your family or sleep with your girlfriend? No matter how poor he is as a footballer, he is one of the nicest people off the pitch, you just made yourself the king of cunt by calling him cunt.

But other people will also comment on how RAWKish that type of behaviour is. Every time he scores the same people pop up with the same recriminations and the same comments about Torres and certain other members.Personally I find it tiresome seeing it every time and would prefer if all the people who kept doing it fucked off to some Liverpool forum because it adds nothing to this forum and is just one more reason to not bother logging on.

didierforever 7,349 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 if people dont wanna talk about sturridge then why cant the FUCK they just stay off the STURRIDGE THREAD, because surprisingly in the sturridge thread people are going to talk about sturridge, just like in the mata thread we talk about mata, or in the hazard thread we talk about hazard.also please should stop with the same old "why dont some members FUCK OFF to the RAWK" joke because its not funny and its got too old. my suggestion is if you dont wanna talk about sturridge then STAY THE FUCK OUT. no one mentioned you in their posts, and thus its not NECESSARY of you to post something and tell other members to FUCK OFF to liverpool forums. olivertwist and YouNameIt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club had a financial prerogative to give a £100 million investment every chance to find form. Yes it was unfortunate that Sturridge didn't get every opportunity but what's done is done. We're now in a fantastic position as a football club in so many respects yet some people will always focus on the negative, whatever it is.Clubs sell players. Sometimes those players go on a downwards trajectory, sometimes they improve. I simply don't understand the mentality of 'supporters' who constantly pick the same scab whenever they get the chance. I don't see the fun in that, or the joy they garner from that.
