Daniel Sturridge

[Ollie 4,400]

Saw the goals on Sunday highlights, Danny looked like a real striker in the brief highlights they showed, just their GK seemed to have a pretty decent game and thwarted him on a couple of occasions well. Any other day he woulda bagged a couple. He needs a run now, he should be our main striker.

Yup - it's typical someone ALWAYS has the game of their life against us

But Sturridge looked as good as ANY striker - he has pace, dribbling ability and just needs some time... Look at Giroud - couldn't score in a Brothel, Arsenal fans and Manager stuck with him and he's knocking them in for fun now...!!!

If Sturridge had the minutes Giroud had this season... Oh my.

Danny looked like a real striker

He did. His movement was excellent, 4 of the chances he had were all down to his movement, everyone would have been singing his praise if he'd managed to put one in.

[Ollie 4,400]

If Torres starts the next league home game against City, the whole crowd should just put in a "One Daniel Sturridge" Chant just to stir things up a bit. Danny had a great game in that fixture last season.

Yeah if Torres had done that - we'd have had 4 million pages of how great his movement is, how he moves defenders around and at least 4 or 5 images of how well he did...

But because it's Danny, he's a C**T for missing the chances... Honestly... I just dont get it... Danny was our best player under AVB and he tries every game - what more can you ask for?

[Muzchap 8,966]

Also, know some old Pro's - from a former job and they all rate Danny... As former Pro's - they should know...

As for Selfish, I asked them about it and they said, "You should worry if your striker isn't selfish" - that kinda sums up Torres doesn't it...

[Ollie 4,400]

Yeah,when he was first choice under AVB he was one of the most confident players i've ever seen for us and he made so many things happen, even as a RW what he was being used as. A confident happy Sturridge is a very good player to have in the side.

[OneMoSalah 8,885]

Let's forget he out scored both Torres and Drogba combined in the league last season...

Yes thats true but its not like they scored 30 goals each that season.

[Muzchap 8,966]

Yes thats true but its not like they scored 30 goals each that season.

Agreed - but he was playing as a Winger! So not even a CF.

And when RDM took over, he sidelined Sturridge...

So he did well and CAN do well again. I will eat my words, but I'm 100% confident with some game time he will be scoring again...

Plus his movement DOES open up space

Yes thats true but its not like they scored 30 goals each that season.

I'm slightly surprised by your supposed angry reaction towards Sturridge.

The problems we have now with both of our strikers are now well documented but at least Sturridge is showing so much more than Torres upfront in terms of movement, energy, hunger and desire. Heck, even Shane Long showed more than Torres did!

[RamiCFC9 258]

It's so simple if Iam gambling I wouldn't bet against Sturridge scoring and would happilly bet for Torres not scoring, almost certain money..

Who would a normal person tolerate more: a world class striker who has lost his way and is going through a rough patch or a young attacker, who is widely thought as overrated and also many consider to be too selfish?.

Sorry mate, but normal person would rather tolerate more the one who tries than the one who doesn't give a shit.

[Hutcho 8,443]

Danny offers a lot more, and makes runs in... His shooting leaves something to be desired, but i would rather have him there to create a chance and maybe miss than to just lose the ball... Also lets not forgot torres has played 10 times more mins than danny, he has hardly been given time to have a run in the side. This means that every time he is on the pitch he feels he has a short time to prove himself, so probably trys to hard and snatches at oppertunities as he feels he has to have a great performance otherwise its the torres show for another 4 games.
