Daniel Sturridge

People's hatred of Sturridge gets in the way of the fact he's actually a good player.

your love for him blinds you to his faults

ye..his attitude is MUCH worse than Torres. MUCH.

Because everyone here knows for a FACT exacly how Danny is. Yeah...

The funny thing is that he gets criticised for what is a common trait of a centre forward - selfishness. But it only gets highlighted with Sturridge because his finishing is bad. Once he improves on this aspect he will be a very good player. Unpredictability is his strength, not his weakness.

Never thought Sturridge was right for Chelsea and said so from the begining. Too hit and miss, greedy, crap first touch -he thought he was a star before he did the hard work.

Not his fault though -if anything he is over confident, been told he was going to be the best in England since the age of 13. That said he will probably go on to fulfil expectations now

Right now we have two strikers, and Torres will PLAY in the Europa League, whether you think he is good enough doesn't matter we don't have alternatives in the Europa League and it will cost us another title.

Lucky us lol

He scored right but he also missed a very promising chance and fucked up at least one promising counter. However, I am curious to see what kind of partnership he and Suarez will make.

I know Sturridge's faults and limitations. But people tend to exaggerate them so much. I don't overrate Sturridge, at least I like to think I don't. Haven't made outlandish statements about his ability, but when people make the stereotypical comment like, "Sturridge is a crap player, poor attitude, doesn't work, never passes/assist and always shooting etc." I find it ridiculous, like people who say Mikel never pass forwards. It is just going with what the (in my opinion, unfair) view on Sturridge when if you actually watch him he's not that had. For instance his passing is actually quite good.

Hopefully they wont make one....or be a very dodgy one at that..

He was frustrating today - yes he scored, but twice rather than passing across the six yard box for a tap in he chose to blast into the side netting.

Its not a kind of pathological condition, its based on reasoned assessments of attending games. Only my opinion, but shared by many

He has the same problem as David Luiz, both when on the pitch do a lot of good things but they do have those WTF moments and which is mostly remembered and criticized for. Greatly unfair imo, David Luiz is an excellent defender and Sturridge brings a lot to the team. Another similarity between the two is that both are very proactive and always in the midst of activity, Luiz with his aggressive style and Sturridge always seems to be in good position.

Whats the difference? Luiz comes off as very likable person, while Sturridge not so much.

Well thats my take on why Sturridge was so much criticized and vilified.

Scoring at Old Trafford can't be anything special - even Torres in Chelsea shirt scored there
